Building a Business Chapter: 12/15/25-12/22/25

This Week in Biz 12/15-12/22

It is Thursday and I have been moving slowly. The goal of hitting two hours per day worked if I could put in six hours in the next three days. I am tired. This is the first really tired day that I’ve had in a week, but I am getting extremely sleepy. The last thing I want to do is be productive. At work, at side hustle, at physical goals. I just want to lay down and let the world slow back down again. I put up a little over six hours last week which will possibly be the total this week. Especially with today involved. I have usually tried to keep my time for relaxation on the weekends, so no habit built up there to expect any time from that.

With all of that being said, what can I do today?  

I have been learning more about marketing. A huge piece is to get in the game and post five posts a day. One quality piece on all of the big social media platforms. At this point, this seems almost impossible. I can’t even post consistently on one platform.

Future me here, I am typing up this page that I wrote two months ago, and I am noticing a pattern. I am saying the same things still two months later. I wanted to keep track of what I did but I don’t want it to be repetitive. Let’s continue and see if there is some value to be had here.

I really turned the day around. It is about 45 minutes from two hours, and I feel extremely excited. Like I have the capabilities to help people on their journey and it makes me happy. Using my gifts to improve other people’s lives really sparks my fire. I know the path to take instead of always feeling lost. That lost feeling isn’t here anymore. I know what I am here for. To help others. That’s the purpose of the business I am trying to create and that’s the purpose of my life. At 26. I think I finally found my true self. Of course, some anatomy was involved with my brain finally being fully mature, but I think a lot of it has been just struggling through life and trying new things. Being able to identify strengths and weaknesses.

The next quarter of this venture I want to make it specific goals. At the end of the quarter, I want to be posting five posts per day, one for each major social platform. Which would be 35 posts per week. To post four blog posts per week is also an accepted amount to get in the game. Right now, I am spinning my wheels. Making movement but no movement in the right direction. It can be done. People with less time to work with are able to do this. I do want all of this to be methodical as possible. No brainpower used, just this is what we do on a daily basis. Routines are extremely powerful.

I am also at a crossroads. Do I pay $700 for two more years of this website? Do I change it into travel only? I want to still help others in other areas of life, not just travel.

Anyway, here are the numbers for the week. Almost eight hours, not quite 10 but I had strong numbers at the end of the week. The 10–15-hour range per week is where I would like to be, but I still haven’t been able to hit that type of time consistently. Overall, it was a decent week, a week of learning more about myself and my motivations.
