LOVE this mention of using freelance writing to fund a "Grownup Gap Year" from @vaycarious—"I actually wish I'd started earlier." buff.ly/31xjNfl

I just did my first work-travel stint in Japan and it was amazing how much I was able to do just working a few hrs each morn
That trip taught me a lot. I was getting $500-$700 of work done/day before 9AM (with a little boost from jet lag) but that basically left me with a full day to hang out/explore.

It *really* clarified my high-earning/low-effort services and what slows me down at home.
i.e. I realized that blogging, even at $400+ for a ~500-word post, is a low-earner for me. Long-form work (case studies, white papers) and short form (emails, web copy) is where I start getting close to those $1000 days without working all day. #BFTips
And that’s a must for me (y’all know PT work is a non-negotiable in my business).

That trip got me a lot closer to understanding what $150-$200K/yr takes, especially in terms of admin/project management efficiency, but also scaling back on low-earning services #BlackBurnout
