    INTRO

    Why are people so lazy nowadays? Is it a generation thing?

    HOT! OFF-TOPIC

    Should I learn copywriting?

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE 
    Both coding and copywriting are high income skills that can make you a lot of money. Whatever you decide, stay 100% commited and focused on one of them for at least 2 years. Avoid shiny object syndrome, go deep and become a master in one area

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Update: I was able to guide my client to my new $80/hr rate without losing them. She had to sort out some logistics and it’s going to be implemented in February. After that we’ll discuss a possible monthly retainer deal to replace my hourly pay.

    INTRO 
    Update: I’m on track to collect $4,026 in cash this month! My two main clients are consistently giving me work. My next immediate goal is to reach 5k/mo. I’ll hit that consistently by raising my rate on my $45/hr client significantly and taking on a new client. That’s my plan for January 2022.
