How to become free from the 9-5 - Feb 12th

Read this email in full if you want to leave your 9/5.
A lot of you guys reading this are probably working a job.
Whether it’s a 9/5 or some kind of nighttime shift, you’re likely working for someone else right now.
You're looking to get to the next level, you're looking to be able to travel the world but you feel stuck.
The trick is…
Don't aim to make millions right from the rip
Just aim for progress, and then naturally everything will take care of itself.
Just focus on the next step.
Then you'll be alright.
Don't sit there and think:
“I need to try and make millions”
You don't need to try and make millions.
What you need to do is progress to the next level.
So, let's say you're working a job right now.
All you need to do is just negotiate for a pay rise.
Let's say earning $15 an hour.
Try and get it to $17 or find a job that pays you $20 an hour.
Now with this extra money, you can use it to invest in yourself and you can use it wisely.
Even if your job declines just apply for another job.
Eventually, get a $ 20-a-day job.
Now you're in a better position.
Maybe your next move is like to apply for Uber as well
Now you can work there in the evenings and you have even more money coming in.
Too many guys are WAY too quick to leave their jobs
Maybe your goal is to start some kind of e-commerce store.
You can now invest more money into it.
You have a higher chance of building a successful business because you have more income coming in.
Whatever your ultimate goal is I always recommend doing this in the beginning:
-Negotiate a pay rise at your current job
-Apply for Uber and delivery drive in the evenings/weekend
-Look to replace your current 9/5 with a better one (sales job for example)
-Invest all your money into networking and building a business on the side
This way you've got guaranteed income from Uber
The thing I like about Uber is no one's talking to you, you are left alone
So you can just sit there all day.
Just be in your own world.
And just chill.
Spend the whole time thinking about your business plans and next moves.
You’re the boss in a way.
So keep this in mind guys.
Focus on the next moves to make, don’t worry about the millions.
Don’t quit your job too early but always look for ways to increase your income.
Sooner rather than later your side business will start doing better than your 9/5 / Uber
Then you can quit.
