Just had a super long drive around one of the most expensive areas of Cardiff basically to perve at the beautiful houses there. Did it entirely for motivation (workspiration?). It’s really awesome to think that there’s _some_ path that I could take, starting today, that would ultimately lead to me living in one of those houses at some point in time. I obviously don’t know which path that may be, but I am certain that there is _some_ way to reach that end goal.<\/p>\n
I thought it’d be interesting to do the math against one of my side projects and see what sort of sales figures I’d need in order to buy a realistic house in the future.<\/p>\n
It got me thinking though, you can actually break down ANYTHING into super small chunks. It’s great not only for motivation – as it shows you what really is possible – but also for planning the future and creating a list of actionable to-do’s for today<\/em>. You can take your total required revenue and break it down daily. How much revenue do I need per day until my desired goal date? Let’s say I want to buy a house in 18 months. I can work backwards and calculate how many products I need to sell per day to do so.<\/p>\n
