Peter’s Story - From “Vacuuming Causes Stress” to Working From Tropical Islands

Today, I’m telling you my story.

Many people have asked me to share my story and to explain how I work and why I do the things the way I do. So this is a solo episode, just me telling you about my life over the past nine years.

Some topics I cover:

• What working as an economic/litigation consultant for a top firm was like
• How I burned out and what burnout did to me
• The symptoms of burnout and which ones I suffered from
• My “wantrepreneuring” journey
• A few failed online businesses I tried to start
• How my business finally got off the ground and now pays my bills
• What I still struggle with today
• How you can use my story to reflect on your own productivity
