I left school in 1997 at 10 and was partially homeschooled for 4 years before starting to work full time; I would go on to grind out 7 day work weeks for 7 years working for others and started at $40/day and barely broke $50,000 my last year (21 years old) but the life and business lessons I learned were INVALUABLE.

This is to create a structure of business based on the E-myth that gets me, the technician out of the way, that allows an entrepreneurial mindset of the four hour work week and start living, with a philosophy that aligns with think and grow rich; success in any endeavor can be achieved through mental visualization, imagination and harnessing the power of your own mind.So if anyone happens to know anyone in the central east coast area of Florida I would love to hear from them.

The consensus is that WFH will be a bigger component of the “normal” working cycle but the work week will have a hybrid component that has people showing up to the office a few times a week at the minimum.

The Richest Man in Babylon, What Every Real Estate Investor Needs to Know About Cash Flow, and The 4-Hour Work Week are some of my favorites. 

I've purchased a good couple of great finance books, some being Rich Dad Poor Dad, Think and Grow Rich, The 4 Hour Work Week, and two BiggerPockets books which are The Book on Rental Property Investing and The Book on Managing Rental Properties.

she dug Your Money or Your Life, and is currently reading 4 hour work week. she's really digging it, and we're already starting to make lifestyle plans for our future. the problem for real estate investing, is that we did the dave ramsey class together, and she's huge on not being in debt. she's struggled to get out of it in the past, and has only her student loans left. assuming the world doesn't end, haha, she'll be out of debt in about 12-16 months, and still in her early 20s. when i try to explain the difference between "good" debt that creates more income than it costs, and "bad" debt that doesn't create income, or appreciation. consumer debt vs business debt. that kind of thing... it doesn't really click tho, and she's still hesitant. she's a w2 earner (i'm a 1099) with decent income, so she could easily land an FHA loan and lock in a house hack within the next year, allowing her to save/invest tons of money and kick the whole thing off even faster. i would love to present this to her in a way that doesn't seem forced, or "i'm right you're wrong do it my way". i want her to really get it on her own, to understand the power that real estate has to change your life. anyone else dealt with this before? 

@Kristen WilliamsYou may want to read the “4 hour work week”.

.- Find and make use of software (as you alluded to) to help me with certain tasks- Take a break when I need one and just accept that I can't work 24/7- Realized that I can outsource many household chores too and compared to my perceived value of my own time it was surprisingly affordable: mowing the grass, gardening, cleaning, maintaining our pool, etc.I've managed to get into a routine where I can put in an hour or so on the investing per day during the work week and a few additional hours each weekend as needed.

Despite lots of talk about “working on your business, not in your business”, “the 4 hour workweek”, and setting up “systems” that allow the business to “run itself”, the reality is (1) very few people have the knowledge, ability and managerial skill to successfully scale a business let alone turn a business into “passive” income.

Of course there is also Richest Man In Babylon, and Think and Grow Rich.If you are looking for productivity you can look for Eat That Frog, Deep Work, The 4-hour Work Week, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and The One Thing.
