Make A Plan
Sound so simple, right? The reason so many people are so far behind in their work or life is because they don’t make the time to engineer (plan out), the specific details to move out of the 9-5 to live life that’s more pleasurable for them.
These are the steps to take in order to manifest your plan now:
a. Write in a journal (the heading), “How to break free from the 9-5 trap”
b. Ask yourself (write it down), Why you want to leave the 9-5. What is your true reason why?
c. How much you need to make in order for this transition to take place?
d. What business ideas (write it down), have you explored to help you generate the income to replace your 9-5?
These ideas you must have written down where you can see it and have immediate access to.
Think about this for a second or two.
Do you know how many thoughts travel through our minds per minutes? Per day?
In a 2020 study, people on average, have more than 6,000 thoughts per day.
In that time, can you image trying to keep your important thoughts in your head with all the mumbo-jumbo (distractions), we tend to face?
Yes, you need to acquire awesome habits that will keep you afloat instead of sinking.

Take Action On Your Plan Now
Procrastination is one of the major setbacks of reaching our goals. We find everything ( I mean EVERYTHING), possible, sabotage true happiness.
You know you need to focus on your your agenda before bed and when you rise in the morning.
You put it off for whatever reason. It could be:
- your tv program
- I’m too tired
- I have to cook right now.
- Laundry
- Shopping, etc.
Ask yourself, “how hungry are you for your freedom?” What price are you willing to pay?
Listen. I’m not going to tell you to go out their in the world and kill yourself to make it happen for you and your family.
That’s not necessary.
It’s the small, but, critical steps that will get you up and going. You must have the desire to take your life to the next level.
Act As If
This message right here is the turning point of make it all happen. This is what truly helped me. Let me explain.
Acting as if, means, seeing yourself freed from the 9-5 trap.
It’s so real in your mind, that it’s a done deal. When you are in this position, you are now just going with the flow of things.
This lesson will take some practice because many of us have been condition on how we should think, what people will think about us and what we believe in.
There will be times, when you will be pulled in all directions to keep you from reaching the life you are aiming for.
Acting as if is also feeling yourself freed from the hustle and bustle. When you feel this way, deep down inside your soul, you’ll just burst open with joy!
Check this out.
Do you know why top actors get paid so well? It’s because they rehearse the script over and over and over again until it consumes them.
They act as if. You can do the same.
The reason why people give up on this subject (I know you know). That’s right. They are stuck on this thing called, “time.”
This is what comes out of the mouths of the inpatient ones:
- It’s been 3 months already
- I read this article and nothing happen for me
- It won’t work for me because I’m old
- and on and on
Look at time as your friend. It’s your guide. It wants to help you succeed. You must get out of the way of yourself, so time can teach you all you need to know.
Time and patience go hand in hand.
Vision Board
The successful people that you see and meet, all had one thing in common:
They had a vision board
They had it somewhere either on their phone, created a board at home or had someone to create one for them.
Some times, I go to the local library ((it’s free you know), look through their exotic home magazines to impress upon my mine of how my home would look like.
It’s all repetition. One famous professional boxer’s quote, “You can hit anything you can’t see.”
If you can’t see your vision in front of you or around you, it won’t materialize for you.
It’s just like the way you faithfully show up for work. How to break free from the 9-5 trap is the same way. You have to work at it to arrive to your destination.
No way around it.
Conclusion
So, this wraps up another one on how to break free from the 9-5 trap.
All you have to do on a daily bases is apply the principles above to your life and be patient for the outcome. If it can happen to those you see and those you know, it can also happen to you as well.
You have the power in your hands and you are in control of your destiny.
Take much care and chat soon!
