Things feels like they're slowing down a bit

Jul 27, 2024 19:31


I don't feel unmotivated but I feel like I'm moving a bit slower than I should be on some of these tasks. I finished writing the book, which is a great accomplishment, it's almost 8000 words. So now I am on to the publishing portion but unfortunately for me my Kindle Publishing app site is blocked because I screwed up the tax portion. I got an official LLC - RWW Digital Media (woo!) so then tried to get myself taxed as a business but there was no option to do so as a sole proprietor LLC and I chose the wrong category which put me into temporary limbo.

There's still things I can do beforehand, like format my book, write the description, and proofread it. Which are essentially the final steps. And also get a Pubby account. And I put the correct steps in to get it fixed with Amazon tech support so hopefully they'll get working on it and have it completed soon. Then I can upload and be on my way.

My Citi Business Account was apparently opened but I don't have any information for it yet, I was told I should get that on Monday and/or Tuesday. I need to work on transferring my $1000 from IRA account into but I need to do it in person to avoid the 10% withholding. I know there are some monthly fees coming up, like from Pubby and probably some of these other services so I need to have a bit of a war chest established that doesn't tap into my rent and bill money.



I haven't been up at exactly 8am every day recently although I haven't been too far off the ball with it. I'll try to get back to a more conventional schedule soon. I overslept the alarm yesterday and just felt generally out of it all day. Today I let myself sleep in and I do have to admit, I like that "sleeping in" meant like 9am. Not like 11:30am. I still had my morning, which I used for eating, exercise, and getting myself mentally together. Gave me time to run errands and also get through the latest 7 day challenge video and keep things moving.

Tomorrow I am going to do all of the things above and if nothing else is ready to go I am going to dig into the mid-journey training. It's an AI art utility on Discord. It might be helpful not just with publishing but also with flyer creation and stuff if utilized properly. I might even be able to put some images into the 7 day challenge book if it's not ready to be uploaded in time. But we'll see how things are looking.

Anyway, Carol's birthday is today and I should get my butt down there. I want to arrive by 8:30 and definitely want to get there before Diana who is feeling strangely anxious.

wasz, ryan
