Hi everyone,
Yesterday I got promoted at my job as a software developer after putting in good effort the last two years. In the car on the way home I realized how ridiculously small the increase in monthly paycheck will likely be, and instead of happy I started to feel very bad and annoyed.
I just bought all three books from MJ DeMarco and my goal is to read all three of them and apply what I learn. My goal is to generate more income and hopefully be able to quit my job at some point. I realize I need to set a clear goal to work towards, but right now I can't even see myself living a life where I make for example 10k a month from online sales, or where I generate 10k a month income. Hopefully over time this becomes more clear. To be honest I am not even sure yet if I want to start selling stuff online, working for an hourly rate, or trying to create something like my own app/online product and try to sell that. At this point, I am lost (which is why I selected mindset as prefix since I think this needs work), I only know I want to have a life with more freedom and more income.
