You aren’t burnt out you just need a CHANGE of scenery.
I graduated college last May and immediately put my head down to work 12 hours a day to get my agency off the ground.
Don’t get me wrong I love every minute of it but by the time March rolled around I was burnt TF out. I needed a break badly or so I thought even for a week.
So for the past few months I’ve just been traveling Europe with some agency friends (still haven’t taken a break and still working 12 hours a day) but I feel SOOO much better.
Being able to escape your 10x10 office set up allows you to actually zoom out not only on your business but on LIFE.
You remember what you’re actually working for and you get excited again.
And you start taking advantage of opportunities that don’t come around every day.
Now, more than ever, I’m ready to go back to that dark desk in my bedroom and get back to absolute work.
The world is your oyster. Go enjoy it.
Euro time zone is just low cortisol maxxing at its finest.
Been in Spain for the past month after coming from Cali time, and the amount of stress that's disappeared and happiness that's filled my body is actually insane.
Not to mention the productivity.
On PST I'd wake up at 5:30 or 6:00 and STILL feel behind.
Wake up. Check Slack. Coffee. Straight into the deep end of client work. Stressed AF immediately.
Now I can wake up at 10:30.
Spend 3-4 hours working on MY business instead of someone else's.
Hit the gym.
Check in with clients and the team.
Once that's all sorted, I can get back into the higher-level stuff toward the end of the EST workday and still head out to dinner or the club around 11 and be asleep by 2.
Rinse and repeat.
Truly such an unlock.
Could definitely see myself here long term.
Mykonos next 🇬🇷
Business, like life, is really just one big game.
And like any game, there are rules.
Stop wondering if there's a better way when in reality you probably just need to follow the rules of the game.
And I don't mean becoming a sheep or doing exactly what everyone else is doing.
There's still plenty of room for creativity and trailblazing.
What I mean is that most things are already figured out.
You know what works and you know the steps required.
And you know what usually happens when those steps are executed consistently.
The hard part isn't figuring out some secret nobody else knows.
The hard part is actually doing the work.
Instead of spending all your time looking for alternatives, just do what is proven to work and add your own spin to it.
That unique angle will come naturally over time, and it's what will separate you from everyone else.
But before you can stand out, you have to get in the game.
And that starts with understanding the rules and actually playing.
My 3 best friends and I have stayed in 50+ Airbnbs in the past 12 months.
We also happen to run competing agencies.
Back in June of 2022, I sent a text to our college group chat:
"I'm starting a marketing agency this summer. If it works out, I'll bring you guys on and teach you everything I know."
Then I actually went and did it.
Four years later, all four of us run our own email agencies.
So technically we're direct competitors.
We work 12 hours a day during the week, then on the weekends explore whatever city we are in, go out, and travel.
If you'd asked me back when I sent that text whether this was the life I'd end up living, I don't think I would've believed you.
But here we are.
Grateful it actually worked out the way it did.
