Hey friends,

This is Admond here, and I'm back after recharging myself from burnout. Yes, I had my first ever burnout due to the long hours of work and stress. 😂

If you're having burnout now, you're not alone. I feel you and I'm rooting here for you. If you need someone to talk to, just reply to this email and let's chat!

Today is the last day of 2022. Before the end of each year, I'd use the goal-setting framework taught by Tony Robbins to set goals in the 4 major areas of my life for the next year. This year is no exception. Here are my 4 areas of goals:

• Personal Goal

• Career/Business Goal

• Adventure Goal

• Contribution Goal

In today's issue, I want to share with you my 4 goals for 2023. By sharing my goals with you, I hope to:

• Inspire you to dream big and set empowering goals that will move you to action

• Keep me accountable by sharing my goals publicly with you

Let's get started! 🚀

🎯 My 4 Goals for 2023

Personal Goal

Chances are you've already heard that your network is your net worth. And I can't agree more with that.

Throughout building my startup this year — from getting connected with clients, finding tech talents to build our product, to getting a warm introduction to investors — I'm convinced that building a strong network is no longer an option, but a necessity.

When I look back to my major breakthroughs in the past, most of them are attributed to my network who opened doors for me. In other words, it's not "how many people you know.", but "how many people all the people you know, know."

Hence, I make it a personal goal to connect with more interesting people from different areas and expertise and build long-term relationships. I do this by getting connected with one new friend every week using Lunchclub. Feel free to sign up HERE if you're interested!

Career/Business Goal

After breaking the figure down, this means that I'll have to make $10,000 on a monthly average. Will I be able to achieve this financial goal? No idea - but I'll probably combine the income from my full-time work and side hustles.

I'll continue documenting my financial journey and make it transparent to you. So stay tuned for future updates!

Adventure Goal

Yes, I recently just launched my YouTube channel! 🥳

If you've been following my journey, you know that I've been writing and sharing my learning journey on LinkedIn, Twitter, and Medium. It has always been in the form of writing, and I want to try something new and different - hence my YouTube Channel.

I'll mainly share data science career tips, Python programming and startup building on my YouTube channel. Feel free to subscribe if you're keen to learn more!

Contribution Goal

If you're reading this newsletter now, thank you for being part of the Hustle Hub's community and I hope you enjoyed reading it so far. Moving forward, I'll continue sharing my mistakes and lessons learned along my hustling journey so we can learn and grow together.

TL;DR

In summary, here are my 4 goals for 2023:

• Connect with interesting people from different areas and expertise.

• Make $120,000/year from earned & passive income.

• Hit 10k subscribers on my YouTube channel.

• Share my learning journey with 10k readers in my newsletter.
