Hello everyone,
Today I would like to talk about my experience after having had what I would definitely call a "FTE".
While I don't feel comfortable talking about the exact details of this event (let's just say it was pathetic, embarrassing & stupid...), it happened about 30 days ago. While I had similar things happen before, this time was different: I was so sick of my own bullshit, I decided to record a 30 minute long audio for myself, ranting about all my flaws, idiocy, laziness, etc... - Basically all the bad stuff I could fix but don't because I forget about it during my daily life or simply choose to ignore it.
I started to listen to it over and over again and something just clicked - I started to actually do things to improve, tired of being the person described in the audio.
So, in the last 30 days, I:
- got a well-paying full-time job (to build a financial base & get out there a bit)
- finally finished my car license (there was no reason besides laziness I couldn't have done it earlier)
- enrolled to uni to learn IT (now before anyone says anything: it's dirt cheap (<3000$), I want to move to another city & build contacts)
- completely quit all forms of social media & gaming, sold my console
- did lots of things that I would consider "out of my comfort zone" (Thank you @MTF for your beautiful "Ode to discomfort"-thread)
- got my first 2 clients for video-editing work (Thank you @Andy Black)
- overcame a lot of my mental blockades/barriers (Thanks to many posts in this absolute gold-mine of a forum)
- started to fix my credit-score so I can start my real estate journey next year (or as early as my credit-score lets me...)
I basically did more last month than I did the 6 months before that... Kinda crazy to think about that.
While I might not quite be in the Fastlane yet, I at least finally got off the sidewalk.
Let's see where this goes!
