Authentic Business: $4K in just 8 hours per week?

11/20/2020

 
Picture
​A client asked me to write up a roadmap to a kind of “four-hour workweek” for authentic business…

​The best I can come up with is an 8-hour workweek. It’s more realistic, yet still minimal. Imagine: just 2 hours of work, 4 days a week. Quite a luxury, especially in these economic times!

Of course, it all depends on how much income you’re aiming for, and your current stage of business.

Authentic Creativity & Making Money

10/27/2020

 

​Someone wrote me the following, and maybe some of you can relate…

​“I long for the ability to create without any thoughts of money…to create because I love it… to take real time off when I need it… to try new things and build in more hobby time into my life.

Everything I create is because I love it, but I tend to always have that background question: ‘Will it make me money?’

7/19/2019

 
I used to think: “If I could only just solve my money problem, then I could finally live the life I want.”

This made me get into all kinds of get-rich-quick schemes, which actually made me even poorer, and alienated my friends.

Those painful experiences eventually taught me that the real life I wanted wasn't about money. It was about being of real contribution to other people. In other words, I wanted a right livelihood.

Instead of seeing money as a problem to be solved, let’s see money as an opportunity to connect. Let me explain.

Quick and Easy Money?

5/17/2019

 
So many people are seeking quick and easy money. 

Why? 

Often, it’s because they are tired with life and work. “If I could only solve this problem of money, then I can really have the freedom to live life on my terms.” 

And then they get easily tempted by people who are selling them some quick/easy money system.

Unless you’re already a well-connected genius in the business world, the truth is that quick and easy money is possible only if you leave out ethical and authentic…. 

First rule: try not to lose money
