It's time to set some real f*ckin goals. I'm fed up with my half-a$$ goals, shitty life, and shifty decision making. I have a progress thread on the INSIDERS, but it has no definite goals, just "do as much as possible" or "provide as much value as possible." I've come to realize those are shitty goals because you can't make a plan to "do as much as possible" or "provide as much value as possible".
It's time to see what committing 1 year of my life to something can bring me. I have the perfect life situation to do it, so f*ck it.
Therefore, I'm going to make $1,000,000 by November 11th, 2015. I'm going to do it in the fitness industry. Books/products/anything else I come up with.
Where I stand with it: I've got 1 book out. It has made around 20-30 sales on amazon. I have another one in the works about halfway done. I just finished a free offer for opt-ins. Now I'm going to use my KDP select free promotion days to drive the downloaders of my book to my site, where they will opt-in for my free e-book so I can start building a list. I know my stuff adds value to people; I just have to keep improving, keep putting products out, and market the shit out of them.
On top of that, I'm going to add some amazing feats of strength that are going to help me not only become a badass MF'er, but also give me significant credibility in my industry.
Feats:
Bench 350x1 (Current max: 245x5)
Squat: 400x1 (Current max: 215x5)
Deadlift: 450x1 (Current max: 300x6)
20 Handstand Push-Ups (Can hold a handstand coming off of a wall for 5-6 seconds)
Full Planche (Can do a tuck planche)
Manna (Can do Tuck L-sit)
Front Lever (Can do advanced tuck front lever)
Back Lever (Haven't tried yet, using skin the cats to stretch shoulders currently)
3 1-arm pullups (with each arm) (Getting better at controlled negatives, not fully controlled yet)
Splits 3 inches below parallel (Idk exactly how far I am, getting closer to normal splits, been practicing flexibility for over a month now)
Money:
Month 1- $1,000
Month 2- $2,000
Month 3- $4,000
Month 4- $8,000
Month 5- $15,000
Month 6- $25,000
Month 7- $50,000
Month 8- $100,000
Month 9- $250,000
Month 10- $450,000
Month 11- $700,000
Month 12- $1,000,000
Right now I make a little less than $1,000 a month (mostly freelance writing), and it stresses me out.
Main things I need to work on:
1. Collaborating with people. I can't do this on my own.
2. Improve my work ethic a little bit day by day.
After this post I will be activating a chrome app that blocks all sites that I spend too much time on. From 8am-8pm MST I will not be allowed on any of those sites, this being one of them. If any mod wants to ban me for coming on this site between those hours, please feel free.
I'll update my daily earnings every night.
FYI: I will not be acknowledging negative posts. Only positivity for me from here on out. That's not to say I will ignore constructive criticism. I need that. If I say anything negative or downer-like in this thread, I'd like for mods to feel free to ban me for that, too.
Today is the day I instantly change my life. I encourage anyone else to do the same.
Have a wonderful Tuesday.
