I drank every week day
Hey Friend,
I remember when I got my first job out of my masters in insurance...
I would work a 9-5.
Grab the train at 5:45AM from the outskirts of London to make it to the city center by 8:30AM where I'd clock into work.
Then do the same thing after work.
Every day was boring af.
- Go to work
- Listen to some weirdo school me in insurance
- Pretend I loved talking to clients to sell insurance
- Go outside for cigarette breaks frequently
- Have lunch at my desk
- Do more chit chat and boring stuff
- Go home
I've almost wiped it out of my memory.
Suit & tie Jacob looked really weird.
I was such a vibrant character, that ended up actually drinking a pint every day for a while.
I excused it as "fun" and some sort of pass time activity.
But at that time, I ate badly, exercised a lot less, and just... was plain miserable.
Now I did learn a bunch working in corporate, but the premise of "every day is exactly the same" (Great song by Nine Inch Nails) just sucked me dry.
I'm forever grateful that I can now make offers daily, write content, and live life on my terms.
But there's days like today where I look back and remember why I started this whole thing in the first place.
I've put together all my offer docs inside the ALL IN ONE easter bundle:
Grab it here for the next 8 days, then it'll go back in the vault for a while.
Your biggest fan,
Jacob "hates suits" Pegs
oh look, a hooman!
