The Renaissance Mann

I'm writing this listening to a song called The Fez ( Steely Dan) feeling great !

It's Friday, so...

I'm developing a new show and preparing for the launch. I'll admit at times, I don't want to do the show, BUT I KNOW this is an evil force ( some say the devil) trying to stop me. I mean, i have an incredible sense of procrastination and it's trying to creep its way in.

Fuggdat!

This year I'm being very creative:

• Cooking more
• Creating artwork for denim jackets
• Blogging
• Vlogging ( video blogging, for the unenlightened)

I'm in BEAST MODE ..

I'm on a mission to retire at 50. They way I figure it..I need $3.3M to do this. How did I come up with this? I figured each year I'll multiply my age times two and that number will be how many thousand I need that year. Nifty, huh?

I forgot where I got this from..but..yeah

I'm also trying to get what Dame Dash calls "The Octopus Model" in place. The name comes from having 8 streams of income. If one stream is cut off..I'll still have 7 streams going. 

PURE entrepreneurship!

My "Mann" Al Jabra rockin' a couple of my designs

So, I'm building my "Octopus":

1. My 9 to 5 ( which I won't name because they don't pay me for that)
2. Inxpot Online ( my Shopify store)
3. Blogging (like this and others) and
4. Vlogging 

As you can see..I need a few more..

6:00pm

I gotta get ready for work. If it weren't for some of the benefits, I'd hate this job. The job is not hard. Going to work is...

Especially on Fridays working overnight. I wanna go out and have fun just like all those who don't work overnight! I wanna be able to do whatever is is I want!

I MUST work harder at my 3 freedoms:

1. Financial
2. Location
3. Time
