I'm going to use this thread as sort of a personal progress journal towards reinventing myself. I'm going to state my goals and occasionally post updates on those. If the moderators feel that this post doesn't belong here, I won't have a problem if it is taken down.
While reading through different threads, I've seen that reinventing myself is step one down the correct path, a path that I know is the only one for me. I've noticed a growing trend around the area I live. The 9-5 workday seems to be disappearing. Not in a good way. More and more people are going to work at 8 in the morning and getting home closer to 9 at night. 12 hour workdays look like they're becoming the norm.
Working 12 hours self-employed would be something I don't mind at all, but slaving away for someone else for 12 hours a day? No way. Sure, they get every 4th week off, but they work 6 days a week. Like it has been said, that job owns them and determines what they do even when they aren't at work. Once my copy of the millionaire fastlane gets here, I will study it like my life depends on it.
For now, I'm working on short term goals that I will accomplish during the remainder of 2015 and 2016.
I will train myself to practice better eating habits, get in better shape, and lose 20 lbs as a start. I will also walk my dog daily instead of letting her stay on her runner all day. I will develop one source of self-made income. Throughout this journey, I will update anybody who would be interested in following.
