You're a hamster
Good morning, Happy Wednesday!
I’m back from Texas and realized something you and I are guilty of without even noticing.
Being a hamster… seriously.
Hamsters wake up, climb on the same wheel every day, and grind as hard as they can.
But just because they’re moving does not mean they’re making progress.
You and I? We’re the same.
Sometimes we're so caught up in staying busy that we forget to look back and ask ourselves,
“Am I even getting anywhere?”
Remember the story I shared last week about burning myself out?
I was taking appointments from 4AM to Midnight, thinking if I just kept grinding, something would change.
But in reality, it didn’t. My wallet stayed the same, and I was so burnt out I was ready to quit any day.
It wasn’t until I realized that if I wanted to be happy, I had to get off my precious wheel and actually do something about it.
In my opinion, hard work should be used to get what you truly want out of life.
For you, that could mean working hard to take care of your family or finally feeling proud of yourself.
For me, working hard meant my ticket to freedom.
I never wanted to work hard just to end up too busy to enjoy my life.
I wanted better paydays with tons of free time to do the things I truly love.
Like traveling, teaming up with my inspirations, and seeing my family whenever I wanted.
So, I got off that old wheel and created my Freedom Method.
It’s a business structure that took me from making 200-300 a day to hitting 100K in a year.
It even cut my shifts from 16 hrs down to around 8, WITHOUT overcharging.
The truth is I know any of you could do this too if you just knew what I knew.
And I’m in the next stage of my life where I’m ready to step away from the chair and teach this method hands-on.
Best,
Jorge
