26 and going for first £3000/month

[The Racing Driver]

July 1st to 7th Week Review

I'm going to be a commercial pilot!

I got the acceptance letter a week after finishing my first airline assessment. Once I start working, I should easily surpass my goal of £3000/month.

Of course, this is the definition of a slowlane job, but getting this job does a few things for me:

- I will have an income to be financially independent.
- I will start acquiring experience on large jet aircraft, after 1500 hours (achievable in <2 years). I'll have a full Airline Transport Pilot's license (ATPL). Which will put me in a great position to move up to jobs paying six-figures and above or become a contract pilot for private jets.
- I will start learning about aviation really in-depth and be in a good position to discover large needs in the industry.

I won't be stopping on entrepreneurship, and will continue working towards growing my business.

Freelance: Closed a website deal for a racing team. I charged a low price to get the sale (I estimate $650 after costs)
Online Business: Continued working on bug fixes. It's been a real challenge developing a web app, but I'm making progress.


July 8th to 14th Week

Week off (kind of)

I have a road trip in Europe with family across several countries. I will be reading books and using my spare time to take a broad look at my life and business. I'll use this time to plan out my key objectives and most important activities for the coming weeks.

Great job here, what did the process of making this sale look like? How did you find them, or they found you?
