Day 1 of the Sprint to Freedom — April 2023
My challenge to equal my full time 9–5 income
2 min readApr 11, 2023
For Day 1 of the Sprint to Freedom challenge for April 2023, I review some important things to remember as you start building your exit plan from a 9–5. I decided to record a podcast to summarize what I am doing, why I am doing it and the hopes that you will join me.
Here are the main points of this podcast:
- Do what you know how to do already and start now
- Think from survival mode: done is better than perfect. $1 Is better than 0 dollars. Forward movement is better than no movement. The goal is income independence not style points.
- Think time independent because you are still working — short courses that teach ____ 101
- 101 is entry level — digital product for this
- Anything higher is high ticket (coaching or product)
- Think of multiple projects but work on and finish them one at a time — because you don’t know which one will work
- If something doesn’t work, you aren’t failing; you are developing
- Think long term even though this is a sprint
- You need to produce content consistently, especially if you don’t have an audience
