| I recently received an email from an Early to Rise reader from the Netherlands named Frank. Like many of you, Frank is stuck in the "paycheck prison". He's working from 8 am to 6 pm as an (underpaid) IT consultant and looking for a way out. He wants to replace his income by creating online courses that teach IT skills to up and coming tech wizards. But there's a problem... Frank "can't find the time" to work on his side hustle! More accurately, Frank doesn't yet know how to make the time he needs to escape the rat race and earn his freedom. Almost 20 years ago to the day, I was in Frank's position. Working 12 hour days in a job that I hated and barely making enough money to survive. However, I discovered 7 simple strategies that allowed me to build a 6-figure online business in my free time and quit my soul-sucking job as a personal trainer in only 18 months. And in today's essay, I'm going to teach you how I did it and how you can replicate my success, create a thriving side hustle, and earn the freedom you've been after for so long. Specifically, you'll learn:
- A life-changing strategy I learned from Nobel Prize-winning author and single mother of three Alice Munro that will help you find 2-3 hours of "hidden productive time" each day.
- What a fridge full of beer taught me about managing distractions and how you can use this principle to reclaim control of your time from the "Techno Time Vampires"
- The uncomfortable truth about balancing work, life, and play when you're building a side hustle (you might hate me for this).
- A simple, 3-step end of day planning routine that will 4X your productivity each morning and allow you to get more done in an hour than most people do all day.
And a whole lot more.
