Laziness didn’t sneak up on me. I let it in.
Missed the 100-pushup daily average. That’s failure.
The fix isn’t thinking about it.
It’s doing the work daily.

Phase One: Kill the Electric Bill
I’m using side-hustle income to buy STRD until I reach 300 shares.
At that point, the monthly dividends should cover our $250 electric bill.
No lifestyle upgrade.
No timing the market.
Just one asset with one job.
Progress so far: 175 / 300 shares.
Goal isn’t more income.
Goal is one less bill every month.
Not financial advice to just a side hustle experiment.
Every day is a choice: improve or drift into decay. Even on busy days, you can find 15–30 minutes for a mile walk. I walked while my kid was at practice tonight.
Mobility slows aging. Keep moving forward. 🚶♂️🔥
Simplest wealth plan:
Single? Save 50%+ of your income. Invest it.
Married? Live off one salary, save/invest the rest.
Assets that grow (stocks, real estate, etc.) do the heavy lifting over time.
High savings rate = fast freedom. That’s it.
