Comments on: My Four Hour Work Week Story Part 4 – Making the 4HWW Lifestyle Work http://www.jasonclegg.com/2010/01/my-four-hour-work-week-story-part-4-making-the-4hww-lifestyle-work/ Internet Business Success, Entrepreneurship, & Lifestyle Design Sat, 31 Jul 2010 22:13:14 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Jackson Wiebe http://www.jasonclegg.com/2010/01/my-four-hour-work-week-story-part-4-making-the-4hww-lifestyle-work/comment-page-1/#comment-201 Jackson Wiebe Thu, 25 Feb 2010 06:50:50 +0000 http://www.jasonclegg.com/?p=315#comment-201 Jason, just came across the blog - and as it happens I'm doing just what you are talking about. I've started blogging my own "entrepreneurship" story. I'm a Waiter/Sommelier by trade, and I have recently opened a seasonal Organic Cafe. The original plan was all about lifestyle - work 6 months living at the Cafe (which is in a beautiful national park), and then be another facet of life for the other six - be it running a beach bar in Costa Rica, taking an MBA, or running a web based business from abroad. Just two years into the biz I was starting to lament the lack of a paycheck and was just about to toss the dream and head off to Law School. Thats when I discovered the 4HWW, and subsequently Gary Vaynerchuk. Through them I gained that little bit of inspiration I needed - and gained the focus I to get back on the saddle. I realized that I was right on the cusp of having exactly what I wanted. Anyways, just thought I would drop a line because I'm right in the middle of blogging my own way at thewayofj.com Lots of great content on your site, looking forward to checkin more of it out.

I'm a big fan of the 4hww, the book, principles etc. After reading Tony Robbins book a few months ago it felt a lot like Tim lifted several key concepts from the book and put into his own words. EG changing your rules, changing your focus, changing your strategy - all things Tony robbins talks about that tims book does too Love your line about questioning whether Tim coined the phrase “lifestyle design” – Anthony Robbins talks about “designing your life” in several parts of his book Awaken the Giant Within.

The concepts are so basic but so important for learning how to connect thinking to taking action and building business. I also recommend Michael Masterson's works, especially Ready Fire Aim.

"YOU are the entrepreneur. YOUR efforts and YOUR goals are the machine. The fuel is YOUR vision, not someone else’s ideas." This is very inspiring. You once said to me, "I will make an entrepreneur out of you." Yeah Yeah. But you have! You are inspiring and love what you are doing! I love this one! “YOU are the entrepreneur.
