Today marks the 8th anniversary of one of the most important decisions I've made in my life. It lifted half of my depression, and I'm the happiest I've ever been because of it.
Other than that, spent the day playing Batman (Arkham series), and planning out my daily routine. The schedule is meant to give me enough time for client work, learn more coding, and work on all the projects I have in mind. The context-switching is going to be insane, but let's see how it goes.
I have a degree in Marketing Management from University of Otago, New Zealand. I ran a successful restaurant for 13 years in Singapore, a brutally competitive market for F&B. I also ran a bakery for 7 of those years. I sold both businesses for 6 figures in 2019.
Then I taught myself to code, and have been working in software since. In 2021, I was hired as General Manager for a restaurant software startup, where I helped market and grow the app to $400k/year revenue.
On the side, I started building my own small projects, aimed at near-passive income. So began a 10,000-hour-long experiment to see if I can make $10k/month by "f*cking around and finding out". This blog is a daily record of the real hours spent & dollars earned.
