The Journey Begins

If you are reading this post, then you too are probably reading or have read Tim Ferriss' extremely successful book, The 4-Hour Work Week.  Whether you read the first edition, the latest expanded edition or both and all formats, I hope you take the time to read through my experience of the book and any effect it has on my life or lifestyle.

WHY I AM READING THIS BOOK

Oddly enough I already have a fairly cushy lifestyle when it comes to working.  I teach pilates part-time and am growing that business.  I'm also a mom and have very little time for myself.  There is no way to automate life with a toddler--and I wouldn't have it any other way.

My interest for reading this book is to find a way/method/secret to getting back into the working world without losing this ability/freedom to be with my daughter and family when I want. 

I want to continue to have the same freedom, but also grow my business in the right direction in order to have the means to support additional ventures with my family...and control my time.

WHAT I WANT TO ACHIEVE

1. Eliminate the daily and irregular activites that are not primary to my goals.
2. Find & Create income streams that don't require my physical presence. 
3. Create income of $4k or better per month for the first year via these income streams.

*Please don't look at this list as the end-all be-all. This goal list is short right now because I know there is a lot to learn from the 4HWW and my friends/colleagues who are also reading it.  This list should not be mistaken for my Dream-line.

I NEED SOME READING BUDDIES...


If you are interested in reading along and joining the conversation, I invite you to do so, but please understand that I will be commenting on areas of the book that stand out for me personally.

If enough people contact me and are interested, I'd love to create a small mastermind style group that discusses the book in depth in a google group.  Please email me if that interests you at all!

In the meantime...let's get going.
