I want this thread to serve as a daily reminder as to why to go fastlane. If you have an anecdote, then please share in this thread. Below is my story from today:
8:30am: Wake up. Start working on closing a few deals.
2pm: Close three deals that were in the pipeline. Add $35k annual profit.
2:10pm: Let my partner know that we did pretty good.
2:30pm: Open a bottle of wine to celebrate.
4:35pm: Get caught drinking on the job. Get fired.
Just kidding. I'm my own boss.
It's 4:44pm in Guangzhou, China. I've been drinking and celebrating this small win for over two hours. If I were at a real job, I'd be fired right now. But because I'm my own boss, I'm slowly wrapping up the day, heading to dinner with friends, and celebrating this win.
Let this be a reminder. F*ck a job. If you want true freedom then you need to have control. Don't let some a**hole fire you for celebrating a win.
