Episode notes
Buy Back Your Time
- Buy time by eliminating small frictions like meal prep, bill automation, and bundled errands to free focused hours daily.
- Use that reclaimed attention to compound productive actions instead of chasing status or comfort.

- Buy a high-income skill via courses, mentors, paid projects, and tools that force practice and increase hourly earning power.
- Focus on skills tied to revenue, scalable outcomes, and constant demand like sales, media buying, or deal-making.
