Question: What does “getting out of this spot” actually look like in real-life reps—this week—not someday?
January 12 — 9:19 PM
I’m in bed. I’m frustrated. I’m annoyed. I’m everything I should be. And the truth is simple: it’s my responsibility to get out of my situation. I hate how it feels dealing with problems I created—and some I didn’t.
1) The spot I’m in
I’m 44, living in a garage, and I’ve been battling for a decade to become an artist. I thought education would be the way. It wasn’t the way—at least not by itself—but I did graduate and I’m still here trying.
On the business side, the plastic bag lane is shifting into paper bags and it’s forcing me to rebuild. Some customers are switching. Some aren’t. Either way, I don’t get to freeze. I have to go into overdrive and grow my route the way I should’ve done when it was easier.
2) The 3 reps I will do daily this week
Money rep: every day I will hunt—drop flyers, contact people, follow up, and close. No dead days.
Art rep: every day I will draw and build the lane—thumbnails, studies, finish passes—one brick at a time.
Body rep: I keep eating clean and training. No negotiations. I haven’t had bread, tortillas, soda, sugar drinks, or junk since November 17th. I dropped from 206 to 179 and I’m not going back.
3) What I’m no longer willing to negotiate with
Every day matters. I used to take days for granted. Not anymore. Fuck no.
Reader question: What’s one rep you’re doing this week to change your life?
