Wife: “Not another course…” Me: “What if I find a different way to pay for it?” Wife: “Sure.” Posted an unused guitar on FB Marketplace. Sold by EOD. Hazah! 😤

Note to self: Patience, patience, patience…

Left corporate to build a cargo van business — slept in the van, learned a lot. Missed time with my wife and our baby, so I sold it and returned to corporate with a clearer vision. Still dreaming, still building — laying the groundwork for what’s next.

Had a great convo with my longtime friend Tony yesterday. Funny how people chasing greatness don’t dwell on obstacles—just the path forward.

Man, this hit different today!

Finally made the hard decision today! This is what I learned fromJeff Bezos on making decisions that helped me: Type 1 (“one‑way door”) decisions: nearly irreversible Type 2 (“two‑way door”) decisions: reversible

What gets me through hard seasons: – Knowing it won’t last forever – A wife who stood by me through it all

Back over the road! Headed to O-H-I-O!

Focus on one they say, but I still need one for the other. Maybe a better question is how do I just do the last one? 3 things I am juggling: What I am currently doing for income. What I am doing to replace my income. What I would like to do to replace my income.

I have spent the last 6 + years splitting my time. I wonder what would happen if I focused on one thing. Better question is how? 🤔

Still haven’t made the decision. It’s wild how the thought of making a hard choice can be harder than the choice itself. 😐

Saw this for the first time: “Luck is when preparation meets opportunity.” - Seneca @ChatGPTapp breakdown: Preparation = skills, knowledge, effort, discipline Opportunity = chance, timing, unexpected opening Luck = the successful outcome when both align

Made it home from being OTR (over the road). 📦 🚐 Barber school starts Jan 1st — 8am to 5pm weekdays. Now I need to figure out: How can I make income while committing full-time to this next chapter?

Being over the road got me back in the habit of doing hard things. After 3 years of WFH and 6 in corporate, you definitely get soft.

Hopefully last night on the road! Home stretch tomorrow morning! 14hr drive! 🚐

Waiting at the library for a load in Laredo, TX. Focused on studying and applying during any downtime. 😤

Sleeping in a van sucks, but I have to remind myself what I am chasing! 📍

Thanks Joe A. Guerra Laredo Public Library for letting me use your library for a couple of hours while I’m on the road. 🙏 There is sooooo much more work I need to do. I just realized how many holes I have in my bucket today! 🪣
