I mean blocking out and allocating small times for admin/email stuff, have VAs do most of the work, being short on the phone to get to the point, etc... I was curious about your schedule, too. And then I thought to myself, "if I free up all this time for myself what the HELL am I going to do?". I busy myself answering nonessential emails, get consumed up into twitter, tweek my blog alot, do laundry, clean something... just 'useless' stuff that doesn't really need my attention, but stuff to busy my time to pass. I keep running in my head, 'the otherside of happiness is boredom'. Ding! Lightbulb moment. True. True. I actually fear trying to find things I WANT TO DO. LOL. gonna take some getting used to, but I think it is time I rightfully do it. I <i>am</i> looking forward to spending more time with my kids. Thank you Tim, for shaking me up by giving me a different perspective on how to live my life.

I admire what Tim’s done, isn’t it the lifestyle anyone who was generating 40K a month can have?", and while I totally agree with both this statement and your follow-up paragraph about being a moron if you don't get out of cubical land with that kind of cash, think about how he got there. He literally surfed the web waiting to get fired from a 40k PER YEAR job because his boss was a total d-bag, and in the process was actually working on designing a job he could like much better and make money at much faster - selling "drugs." So yes, it does take 40k/mth MAYBE to feel comfortable quitting cubical land, but Tim quite literally didn't have that kind of cash when he crashed and burned out of his crap job. And kids doesn't have to be a roadblock. My wife and I have friends where the wife got laid off from her job as a music teacher, and is now teaching piano in her home for plenty of extra income that is helping support the family while still giving her even more time with her 3yr old and 9 month old. BTW, Tim, love the new expanded book already, and it has already reminded me how my lawyer wife might just be able to actually find a job for herself online starting with some Google Adsense/Adwords/Analytics market research! ;) Thanks for your work on this second edition of the book! @StephenRex you said: “… I admire what Tim’s done, isn’t it the lifestyle anyone who was generating 40K a month can have?”, and while I totally agree with both this statement and your follow-up paragraph about being a moron if you don’t get out of cubical land with that kind of cash, think about how he got there.

The point is to do what you want to do. If being lazy is it then that's my perogative right? What’s wrong with being lazy? The point is to do what you want to do.
