Sadness Lieutenant Update

Got fired today out of nowhere w no 2-week notice or any hints. and been fired from the flex role for over a week I think. grinding my copywriting shit 12-20 hours a day and getting hella fucking fit. I got a 6 pack now and am more jacked than I've ever been. I got -400 in the bank from just having to buy a car, and investing in courses, books, software, and workout equipment.


What I DO HAVE THOUGH. Is my first week of outreach for my copywriting/SMMA services and I had a first call with a potential 20k/month client.


Been working all day perfecting some Proof Of Work. The potential client is an executive coach worth 30m w/ 2m followers on LinkedIn and money is not an issue for him.


Not bad for a week of outreach. Had a 10% reply rate with 3/4 positive out of 60 emails. The work for the client would realistically take me 2 hours a day.


And with everything, he is talking about I easily see about 7 other ways to provide more value to him to get him where he wants to go that we will talk about after doing the initial work.


My ex also sent me a 50-page 'eternal goodbye' document to my email that I immediately trashed and never read one word of or thought of again. Fuck that bitch.


So it's 1:39 AM, and I've been grinding since 8 AM. This is my normal flow, I'm not even tired. When you work for you, on you, and that shit doesn't reset every month. The dopamine is better than any drug I've ever fucked with.


Much Love,

The Man

Good to hear from you - you still need to get sleep at some point though.

Take care of yourself, and good luck landing those gigs.

Definitely appreciate the grit and determination to success and it seems to be coming to you.
However, don't discount that overdoing it (like constant 12+hr days) can quickly lead to burnout.
Take care of yourself dude

Yes, I worry. It’s not sustainable in the long term. I want only all the best for all of us. :)

When life knocks you down, get back up, and hit back. Keep grindin'.
The force is strong with you.
