There is light at the end of the tunnel.

Scoring the week

Another round of accountability!

My 12 Week Plan, scheduled to end on the 16th of October, has a singular goal: reach a turnover of 5000 EUR for Decode Estonian.

Currently, I’m sitting at €3,660.41, out of which €1,269.33 was earned in Week 38 and 39.

The new income is from receiving the money for all the tickets I sold in September 💪

The progress tracker is still here if you are curious about the details.

Week 38 and Week 39 had terrible execution scores, mostly because I was busy actually running workshops and had other things in my private life that occupied me a lot mentally and emotionally.

Feelings

When I saw this email I felt:

  • surprised – I had no idea that the workshops were bringing in this much,

  • exhilarated - this is the first time in my life that I’m making money on the scale of “you could theoretically live off this” using my own skills.

At this point, I feel like I can live a poor existence without needing a single client to sell software development services nor do I need an employer.

A small taste of freedom.

Outcome

⚙️ I’m still not quite happy with managing energy levels through the second half of the workshop - we often have to rush through the material.

✅ Giving workshops and seeing people get smarter in real time is still extremely motivating and fun. It is physically draining, but mentally the opposite.

❌ The next iteration of a teaching aid is taking shape in my head and as sketches in my notebook, but still not real.
