I have one more time block to go but I'm bailing on it so I can end my day early. I'm gonna have dinner on time and sleep early. Past two weeks I've been eating & sleeping late and racking up horrific sleep debt.
Been checking out other people's Upwork profiles, and watching a bunch of roasts to see how I can improve. Nick personally roasts each one on Maker School; yeah he's that serious! (Which is why I keep saying the monthly fee is worth it.) By tomorrow I should be able to record a short intro video and complete my profile.
I also learnt we can sell predefined projects on Upwork. Basically productised services, complete with pricing tiers! This makes selling a lot easier. Tomorrow I'll figure out how to put together at least 3 services that I can offer.

Btw if you want to see exactly what I ship each day (including client work and workouts), come join me on WIP. Find me @poppacalypse. Lots of inspiring makers there like Mark Köhlbrugge (WIP founder), Pieter Levels, Fajar Siddiq, and Jason Leow.
I built and sold two brick & mortar food businesses between 2006-2019.
Now that I'm semi-retired, I ask myself, "What if I spend 10,000 hours chasing curiosity?"
10k to $10k is a live changelog of my journey to see if following my interests "fvcking around and finding out" can make me $10,000 a month. All while living the slowmad life.
