Perfect. The novel I’ve been plucking at for some time- almost afraid to say how how long until I read your seven years- nine for this one.

I said it has to be done this year- June. Looking at end of July and I need to just do it. Perfect kick I needed. I’m at fifty k and I’ve revised the first forty five thousand. It’s getting done this week.

I love everything about this post Jeff. And that's the first time I've heard the hustle is a season, not a lifestyle. It makes me embrace the word a little more.

And it ALMOST makes me want to work on a manuscript. (But noooo-- not ready yet. 🤣) I'll stick with marketing and sales for now.

I love what you said about hustle being a season, not a lifestyle. We as humans always need an incentive to accomplish our goals. A payoff, if you will. Very interesting perspective.

Yeah, that's a fun quote. I like thinking of it as rocket fuel. You can see it once in a while, but it's highly volatile, and once it's used up, it's gone for a while. Need to use it in short bursts.

I thrive on having no more options to opt out of a project. Queen of the last minute.
