My Plans for the Coming Week

Good morning! I decided to make today a rest day from working out - this week is going to be a recovery week, so my workout schedule is going to be a bit different - mostly Core Synergistics, cardio and stretching.

This past week I also started doing some transcription again on Fiverr - I unpaused my Fiverr transcription gig, and actually got some work from two of my old clients. I think I'm going to pause it during the week and just try to do work on the weekends, at least until I can get some freelance writing work going again. If you're interested in writing or transcription work, feel free to check out my profile on Fiverr: https://www.fiverr.com/emartin74.

That's it for now, I will write again tomorrow. Everyone have a great day!

Figuring things out

Ok, so I'm starting to try and figure out how I really want to spend the rest of my working years. I read through a PDF from Tony Jeary called "The Productivity Blueprint" - the first thing he suggests you do is come up with your dream salary - my dream salary would be probably around $50,000 a year - but right now I think I'll start with getting my salary up to about $30,000 - that's a little more doable for me. That means I'd have to make $15 an hour if I'm working 40 hours a week. I'm currently earning around $11 an hour working 40 hours a week, but of course out of the 40 hours a week that I'm working, I'm really only on the phone for my job about 27 to 30 hours of the time, if I'm lucky. That's probably a good thing, if I was on the phone any longer than that I'd probably go nuts. But still, I need to figure out ways to make more money, whether it's through my job or through other sources of income. I still plan to work on the other sources of income, but in the meantime I'm also going to work on making more money at my job. The easiest way for me to do that would be for me to make outbound calls when they're available. I could also (and probably should) get back to doing audits when we're slow. I'm going to use this coming week to try and figure things out.
