One thing I’ve gotten really clear on this year is figuring out exactly what works for me (and what doesn’t) when it comes to my work schedule.
For example…
Yesterday I was putting together some travel plans for January.
I have a buddy’s bachelor party in Mexico…
I have the Titans mastermind in Connecticut…
I also have Mike Geary’s mastermind in Utah happening that month as well.
So there’s a lot going on…
Now a few years ago, I would have just gone to all three of these events.
In fact, I probably wouldn’t have thought twice about it.
However…
I would have ended up regretting it.
Why?
Because if I travel too much, I get very antsy.
I get sick of being in airports…
And sleeping in hotels…
And I just want to be home and in my routine.
So knowing that I’m this way…
I’ve created a “rule” for myself around travel.
And the rule is that I don’t travel more than 2 times in a month.
I know that when I travel more than this I start to dread it.
It’s not fun for me.
So why put myself in that position?
It’s super easy to think you can do everything…
And that you have to say “yes” to every travel invite.
But if that doesn’t work for you…
Then don’t do it.
Anyways…
I thought this was a good lesson to share this morning.
It shows the power of knowing yourself…
And knowing what works for you.
And being smart enough to set your life up in a way that maximizes that.
To me this is key if you want a life that you actually enjoy.
Cause for me thats the “end goal”.
It’s not just about making money…
It’s about having a life that I enjoy everyday.
And if you give it some thought…
You can set that up for yourself.
Alright, that’s all I got for ya today.
Enjoy your Wednesday.

If you like the insights I share in my emails, you might be interested in working with me in my mentoring program, Copy Accelerator.
You’ll get to learn from me, Stefan Georgi and a group of A-list copywriters every single day.
We’ve already helped copywriters like Amber Peoples, Tanner Henkel, Mario Castelli, Alec Rosa, Michael Rochin, Scoott Mills, Krista Edsall and more to scale to multiple 6-figures a year.
We’ve also helped offer owners like Troy Ericson, Steve Gunn, VShred, Scott Phillips, Conor Boyland and more to scale their offers to hundreds (and even thousands) of sales a day.
If you want to see what all the hooplah is about, I suggest giving this a read and see if it’s for you…
