If you're grinding more than four hours daily, you're solving the wrong problem. A hospital administrator earned $10,000 a month in commissions working just 2-3 hours on the side, eventually making more than his hospital salary.
I personally don't believe in working more than four hours a day on anything, because if you're working for more than four hours a day, you're either selling the wrong product to the wrong people or you're focusing on the wrong activities. One of my students is kind of funny. He was a hospital. He was a hospital administrator, and he was like a patient experience coordinator, but he had a Rolodex of doctors that he knew. Oh, yeah. And so he started doing this to the doctors on the side. He was doing this for two to three hours a day after. After work. And in a matter of four or five months, he was doing $10,000 in commissions every month, just deal after deal after deal. And he stayed at the hospital for a good two years. And even though he was making, you know, $20,000, $25,000 a month, doing this on the side actually was five times as much as what he was making at the hospital. But, you know, sometimes it's hard to change a tiger stripe when you're used to having a 9 to 5 job. But at least he had this ability, this plan B, in case he gets laid off, in case something happens.
