Okay so I've made a few posts already but I might as well formally introduce myself.
I'm Hazelnut.
I was introduced to the fastlane lifestyle by a youtuber I was watching few months ago and then listened to a few MJ DeMarco's interviews. It was amazing to have the affirmation that my passion to be self-employed wasn't delusion. The fastlane philosophy has been a game-changer for me.
My business is a food blog. Although I'm still a newbie, I have a solid business plan because I've been attempting this for the past 2 years. I always struggled to execute my idea. Now I'm executing and training a loved one on all the non-creative tasks on the business so that they can help whilst I'm still building.
My overall goal is to live comfortable doing something creative that I love. I want work to not feel like work and to have the freedom to choose. I also want to build something I can call my own and possible tell other's how they can do it if they truly want to.
So far I've learnt the importance of making sure that there is a demand for my content. I use ahrefs to ensure that it's something that people want.
I have the opportunity to go down the web design route as I can code and I have a very good eye for visuals (after over a decade of doing various creative hobbies). But I don't know HTML and CSS very well. I was mostly weighing up time spent learning vs outcome. I'd also have to learn sales, marketing and SEO in depth. Plus I have strayed from my idea before and the outcome wasn't good. So at the moment I'm sticking to what I know best and using those skills for my blog instead.
