Less Consuming, More Producing - Progress Thread

[403burnout]

I've been mostly lurking around here the past few weeks and finishing up a (re)read of TMF (now reading Unscripted as well which I've never read before.). Figured it was time I start contributing as well.

I've flirted with "side hustles" and being a wantrapreneur for pretty much the last decade, but it wasn't until the last few months that I really became disgusted with the Slowlane and obsessed with finding my own way out of it. I want to straighten up and get serious about making a real income from a business that I control, not just "side hustle" cash.

I've come up with a few different business ideas and ways that I can create value, and decided on one that I think has great potential and meets CENTS. I am working on developing my first product now (information product so there is a decent amount of content creation involved.)

I realize I am in the "desert of desertion" right now so I'm starting this thread as a way to hold myself accountable. I want to get to that first sale as soon as possible! My goal is to have a sellable product live, with ads being sent to it, by April 1st.

Near Term Goals -

• Product Development
  • Currently around ~25% finished - want to get to ~50% by end of next week
• Website
  • Decide on and purchase domain
