The 4-Hour Work Week: Escape the 9-5
$12

The 4-Hour Workweek changed my life. I knew deep inside that I just won't be satisfied in a career where I don't determine my own destiny, where the fruits of my labor aren't towards a project of my own devising. Even if you work in tech at a company with huge prospects, I knew it wasn't for me. It made me quit my job at a company that became a unicorn. Regrets? None. I just wasn't happy. Every fiber of my body wasn't happy. And although a lack of absolute focus and personal circumstances means I haven't reached that stage yet where I achieved something truly grand as of yet (a few failed businesses wholly attributable to personal and family issues, and one rather successful undertaking which briefly made me a millionaire before crashing down again, again because of my inability to hedge against personal life drama), I am 100% never beaten. This app is tangible proof of that. I want to extract the maximum fulfilment from this life by creating things of impact, and I will. And the 4-Hour Workweek was the initial trigger for that, along with introdudcing me to techniques and resources that averted me becoming a neurotic wreck.
