I’m starting to be convinced, after spending another set of 16 hour days, that the only way to make progress on the 4HWW goals is to become ruthless about how I spend my time. Just like grazing throughout the day is not an effective way to lose weight, aimlessly working through the day is not […]

I posted the other day on the topic of finding a good bank for small businesses. I got a few great recommendations and ended up settling with Provident Bank, a regional bank in the Virginia, DC, Maryland, and Pennsylvania region. They offer free business checking accounts with no minimum balance requirement, the offer bill payment, […]

As like all you 4HWW-ers, I’m gearing up my muse and getting the funds rolling in. I started an LLC using the Company Corporation (my recommendation if you’re trying to keep it simple and cheap - no need for expensive lawyers), making it a Delaware-registered LLC and then possibly registering as a Foreign LLC in […]

The move to the 4HWW has been a lot more difficult than I expected. My current business has been ramping up and sucking the four-hour work week out of me. I’ve already gotten comments that my blog has become stale and irrelevant

Next up: […]

I just got a comment in my first blog post that I’m not the only one documenting their attempt to travel down the 4-hour work week path. The fellow from The Four Hour Trial tells me that there are others like me and him that are going down that path. He mentions there are others […]

Yesterday, I talked about how the concept of the reduced work week as envisaged by Timothy Ferriss’ Book mostly applies to repeatable, products or productizable services. But I think there’s more to it than that. Even in the product realm, not all product-based companies lend themselves to greatly reduced time and effort with the result […]

The more I read the book and think about how to apply it to my own life, the more I wonder about just who this four-hour work week is most appropriate for. For sure, if you have a product company that can operate on semi-auto pilot with subcontractors and outsourcers performing the responsibilities of fulfillment, […]

Ok, so now that I’ve gone ahead and bastardized this site with gratuitous Capitalism (thanks for the first few orders, already, btw!), it’s time to continue the FHWW journey.
I’m going to be traveling west, so while I’m out there, I decided to sign up for a few MeetUps that can help catalyze the journey from […]
