Every day living my passionpreneur lifestyle is a little different, but each one typically starts out about the same. Here’s a peek into the mornings, along with some explanatory links (all links open in new browser windows, so you won’t lose this page) as well as the rest of the day:
DAILY ROUTINE 4:00am wake up; weigh myself; record weight and other items in my fast/health journal
• check mainland US headlines on huffpost.com and world headlines at news.google.com
• check mvariety.com and saipantribune.com (for local developments here on Saipan)
• check my youtube feed for new releases from my favorite channels (TUG, TheQuartering, The Why Files…if you want the full list, leave a comment below!)
• review my daily tasks; move yesterday’s completed tasks down & set new tasks/goals for today
4:20am RESPOND TO EMAILS AS APPROPRIATE AND/OR WORK ON ANY IDEAS THAT MAY HAVE COME TO ME OVERNIGHT. May include:
• Responding to email (tour inquiries, book inquiries)
• add content to any book projects I may currently be working on (The Parasite Report, at present)
A look at how I set up my home studio
5:00am If I’m working on and documenting any Ageless Adept protocols (fasting, cleansing, detoxes)–and I usually am–this is when I might do a castor oil flush, MMS bath, other protocol.
6:00am If I am recording a Youtube video for any of my channels, this is when I typically have to stop as this is when the restaurant next door turns on its exhaust fans and things in the neighborhod start to get noisy
By 6:00am, the sun rises and the neighborhood comes alive. I may be out jogging!
6:30am If I’m not fasting, and if this is a Mon, Wed or Fri, I may head out at this time to run barefoot on the beach for two miles. Takes about half hour.
Two-mile beach run
7:00am This is when I would typically schedule any coaching calls from mainland US coaching clients.
9:30am Out and About: I’ll typically head out to run errands or just to take a break and see the island!
(purchases, laundry, post office, visit friend, sunbathe…)
12Noononward I’ll typically be working intermittently on any number of projects having to do with the 24+ books, 5 Youtube channels, 88 domains, 12 facebook pages I manage– all while watching Youtube videos on any number of mindless entertainment or educational topics (legal, politics, comedy, social commentary, cooking, mystery, travel, red pill, business insights, survival and more!)
1:30pm If a one-hour sunbath is in my plans–and if weather permits–this is when I’ll typically head out and up to the north end of the island to a secret spot and sit on the rocks at the high point of the sun
Watch me mountain climb in flip flops!
3:00pm From this time on, I’ll be resuming any number of tasks started at 4:20am, cooking (if not fasting)…
OTHER VARIATIONS OF MY TYPICAL DAY: the routine is a little different on (a) tour days, (b) workshop days, (c) fasting days/weeks, (d) Saturdays, (e) special project lockdowns (.i.e., when a special project–like a revamp of ALL my websites or updates of ALL my books, or the coding for some software I’m creating–consumes all my waking hours and I work on nothing else but! )
A recent, special multi-day tour: (click image to experience it)
AND, OF COURSE: A lifetime ago, when I worked as a civil engineer on the 73rd floor of World Trade Center One, I remember looking out the window down at the end of the aisle of cubicles and desperately yearning to be free so I could “go see a movie in the middle of the day!” Not so often these days, but every once in a while I’ll head out to the single movie theatre here on Saipan for the earliest show (typically 1pm or 4pm) and take in a flick!
Working from lists is one of my “secrets” for being productive and managing my four identities, 5 Youtube channels, two dozen websites, 48 books and just everyday life! Here is my actual “done” list from yesterday (some of it gets a little geeky, so feel free to ask for clarification in the comments section):
WEDNESDAY, SEPT 21, 2022
DONE- Complete preparation of all blogs
DONE- submit article and headshot to local newspapers
DONE- reply to R. (coaching client)
DONE- use AWS SES* for parasiteblog.com MailPoet plugin
DONE- set up AWS SES for discoversaipan.com/blog
DONE- use AWS SES for agelessadept.com/blog
DONE- use AWS SES for passionpreneur.com/blog
DONE- use AWS SES for jamaicaninchina.com blog
DONE- post “What channel should I focus on?” to passionpreneur.com/blog
DONE- re-install wordpress from scratch
DONE- create link https://www.waltgoodridge.com/books#passionprofit
DONE- check that Analytics code for blog is working
DONE- place Vitaminlife order
*Amazon Web Service’s Simple Email Service; this allows emails from the MailPoet plug-in of my blogs to be reliably delivered to subscribers.
As I said, I have multiple identities, websites, channels and blogs, whenever I work on a new project (e.g., setting up blogs), I create a template of the steps involved because: (a) I’ll more than likely have to repeat them (b) I can offer the templates in my Websites That Sell Checklist and/or my Zero Cost Business Operations Manual. (Free at https://www.thepandemicpreneur.com)
So, with that said, here is the template I use along with the confirmation email I use for the MailPoet WordPress plug-in
