Transcripts
1. Welcome to the Class : If you have been thinking
about getting started with a side hustle alongside
your full-time job or if you already have a side hustle and I'll look into manage it better around your full-time job or your university degree, then this class is for you and let everyone
My name is laminate. I'm a bank or an international
property investor and a content creator, an old things, money, property and side hustle
alongside a job that required me to work
60 plus hours a week. At times, I have been a
prolific side hustler. He has allowed me to expand my streams of income
significantly, but has also just
added more fun and creativity and
purpose to my life. Consequently, one of my most
asked creditors has been, how do you manage
to balance it all? And that's why I hope to be sharing with you in this class. I'm gonna be
focusing on teaching you how you can plan your side, hustle around your
full-time job. How you can execute your side hustle around
your full-time job, but also how you consist
stain a side hustle alongside a full-time job
or your university degree, whatever you were
doing that thicken up the bulk of your time at
the end of the class, I hope there is at
least one thing that is practical or maybe
even theoretical, that you can apply
it to your life. And I hope that it fills you
with new confidence that you can successfully have not
just one side hustles, but multiple side hustles
around your full-time job. Are you ready? Let's go.
2. Understanding You : One of my most important
tip is that you understand where you
currently are with the job that you are doing
and you must be able to tailor what I'm saying to your
own particular situation. What are your current
working hours? How do you usually feel once
you get back from work? When do you usually have the
most free time understanding that understanding where
you are with the work that you currently do and also with the work
that you want to do is going to be super
important as we go on throughout this class.
3. Freetime Finder : In this lesson, I asked you
wanted to show you guys a practical way of managing your time around
your full-time job. You're gonna be doing
some calculations, super light, super easy. We're gonna take
the total hours in a week and then we're
gonna work with that and kind of strict back to
see how many hours that we are left with a very
high level exercise. Not everything that
ends up being free time has to be allocated
towards your side hustle. But I think it's a
really good exercise to just get you to think about. Actually, I do have
a lot of time on my hands because I think one of the most common things
is I don't have time. I don't have time,
I don't have time. What you do find is that a
lot of people just don't know where they expect
are spending their time. They don't really understand how they're spending
their time and how they can allocate
their time more efficiently and get more done. Because at the end of
the day, the content, the amount of hours that
we have in the week, or the amount of that we have in a table and we can
do is manage it a lot better in a week. They're obviously seven days, but 24 hours, do
you seven times 24, this leads to a total of
a 168 hours in a week. But this is our starting point then what I'm gonna do and
what I would encourage all of you guys to do when you get to your class
project section is to deduct 49
hours straightaway, this is the ideal amount
of hours that you should be having full
sweep every single day, at least seven hours for
the duration of the week, seven times seven,
that's 49 hours. I am not someone who
would advocate not getting adequate amount of sleep that you need because
at the end of the day, you do need to be productive. And being blob is a key
to being productive. That leaves us with
119 non sleep hours. Let's just call it that. The next thing that we're
going to go ahead and do. And so for everyone
who is watching this, it's going to be
different depending on how much you work, how many hours,
how many minutes a day are you spending
on average outward? What I also want
you to think about when you do this
exercise is not just a, what time you get into
work and what time leave. There's also a time allocated
to game ready for it. There's also time allocated
to having breakfast is also a time allocated where
you will take in transport. So the full process from the moment you start
saying, Okay, cool, I'm getting ready for
work until the moment you get back home went
when work is done. That is that is what
we going to use as our total amount of work out. We're gonna go ahead
and times that by five. So for me it's 12
hour and adopting those 60 hours from
the 119 non-C hours, please me with the
remainder of 59 hours. As you are all well aware,
life isn't that simple. There are always things that
come up and then you have to do talking to
family and friends. A pause so that you have
to open stuff like that. So I'm gonna say
at least another two hours every single day. Minimum goes towards this, but I'm just gonna say
two alpha two sake of simplicity again, this is a very
high-level exercise. But because of this, I'm gonna go ahead and
deduct 14 hours from 59. So this leaves me with
an ambitious 45 hours a week where I could be dedicated in that time
towards my side hustle. Now of course, you're
not going to spend the entire 48 hours
a week on top of the me 60 hours a week that
I'm already spending at what? Working on a side hustle
because you overwork yourself and you burn
up very, very quickly. But this is just
a good exercise. I just kind of
show you actually, you know what, there
is some time in a day, even if you just end up using half of those
hours in a week, 20 hours a week to
dedicate to something that you're passionate about or to another stream of income. It could do that over a month, that's already 80 hours. If you do that
over a whole year, it's a lot of hours
and he all compounds, I'm gonna go ahead
and do next is to take those 40 hours and then pick out and identify the key things that
I do for myself. For me, the side
hustle that takes up the most time is YouTube. That usually takes up
around 50% of my free time. So I'm gonna take 45 hours
and times that by 50%. Or if you're just doing
this in a calculator and you want to do it for
your own side, hustle by 0.5. And I'm gonna take
the conservative of that number 22 hours
out of my week. I want to allocate
that to YouTube. And I'm gonna go
ahead and do that for the rest of my side hustles, depending on how much of my free time I want
to allocate to them. And this is going to be important when we go
ahead and get into the actual planning and organization of our free time and also in the class project. So definitely bear
this class in mind.
4. Working Hour Strengths : In the next lesson,
we're actually going to be taking
the previous lesson. We're gonna be putting that into Google Calendar to
wherever planning and organizational
apps that we use. And I'll take you guys
all through that. But before that, I really
wanted to talk on working our strengths and
particularly the origin of the working week, because it was
actually designed by someone and see how we
can leverage that to help us be better
at successfully managing outside
hostile Henry Ford, who was the creator of
Ford, the car brand. He was asking the
person who designed the nine to five what you meet before that people
were just working. However as they please. And a lot of the time
people are actually working a lot longer than nine to five. But what Henry Ford realized is that productivity actually decrease on a whole for certain people at
particular times. He realized it before nine AM, a lot of people were
less productive. And then after 5PM, most people were also less
productive be kept in 95 structure because for
the average of people, this is when they
were most awake, this is when they
were most alert and this is when they
were most productive. It comes down to each
individual person that normal will probably
slightly differ. For me, I'm 101%
a morning person. I have no issues with
making a final am 6AM wherever your most
productive hours looked like. You can try and use
that and take some of your most productive hours
to focus on your own, stop your own side hustle as I like to do it in the morning, I like to wake up
around 05:00 AM. I like to dedicate the hours before I start work to myself. I break that down between just taken some time for self-care, but then also taken
time to work on my side hostels and
everyone is different. So the key here is to understand the way your productive cycles, what you might be more
of a night person. You might be more focused on an actually going to
work and trying to finish up your drug at work as productively
and as efficiently as possible so that you can
get back and you can take the evening maybe six to
nine or seven to ten, and use that to work
on your own side, hustle, even if you're
a daytime person, you might you might consider thinking about your
lunchtime or whether you can just take 40 minutes a day or the full hour a day
and have your launch, but also work on your side. The extra 14 minutes here
to our Was there one hour? There doesn't seem like
much, but trust me, it really adds up
one thing that I would like you guys
to just test out it, just pick up your
friend right now and go to your setting and look
at your screen time, and look at how many hours
you spend on social media. Like it doesn't
feel like it during the day when you just
pick it up here for 20 minutes and pick up
here for 30 minutes. But then it ends up averaging
like a good number of hours for most people because
the number of compounds, and so you can just take
some of that time back and work and use it to work
on your own side, hustle. You can save yourself
a lot of time.
5. Effective Time Blocking : In this class we're
going to be getting practical and we're
gonna be taken the key learnings from the previous two lessons and putting them into
a Google Calendar. Or it can be Eigen
under whatever company you want to use. And we're gonna take our
working, our strengths. We're going to understand
the hours that we have in a week and
how we allocate them. And then they're gonna
slot where you are on our side, hustles into that. And don't worry too much
about getting this done at the same time as this will be the task for the class project. Here we have my eye calendar. I like using digital calendars like this because
you can see the ball a 168 hours in a
week and then it's perfectly broken down
into one hour chunks. And I'll just make
a note that I've already made calendars for the different buckets
of my day on the side, and I've selected all of
them in different colors. So that's what's gonna
make it look super cute. But obviously you
didn't have to do that. First. I'm going to time
block for work because that takes up the biggest
chunk of my day. And then I'm just gonna
set it to repeat. It, does it for
the whole week and then the frequency as
well for every week. What I don't do a
tablet my sleep because I'm actually pretty
disciplined with my sleep. But if you aren't disciplined
with your sleep this time, look in your sleep
might actually be a really good way for you to set up an alert and a reminder for
you to get to bed on time. And then I'm gonna
go ahead and do my morning routine as
we go and do the cost. There will be a lesson on
the assessments routine, which is so crucial. And so for me, my
morning routine is part of my
sustenance routine, so it has to be in there. As previously mentioned, I am a morning person that is
my working hours strength. So I'm going to make
sure that I get some hours in before
what I'm not gonna be too specific from day to day on what exactly I'm gonna
be working on off my side hustles because
honestly it varies and I don't like to get too specific and get
caught up on that. I'm just going to
give a broad bracket of content creation. As a morning person, I am absolutely not
an evening person. If I'm going to
work off the work, I have to be super motivated. So I like to do is to sleep my low-value tasks
for us to work. Then we move on to the weekend, which is when I
have the most time. And as I showed you guys before, YouTube takes up the
majority of that free time. So I loved doing YouTube
on the weekends, but I don't like to
ramp pack my weekends because it's also a time
for recovery and resetting. There you have it. This is how you can time block a high level outline
of your week, making sure that
you are pinpoint specific times to work
on your side, hustle.
6. Class Project : Welcome to the class
project section. I would love for
you guys to do is to carry out the task
that I have just completed in the previous
lessons of figuring out how many hours you can dedicate towards
your side hustles. Again, you might have
a lot more factors included in the
calculation than I did, or you might have a lot less, but I would love to see
how you guys figure out how many hours a week you can
dedicate towards your side, hustles, and then taking
that and transforming that into some sort
of Google Calendar. Or I can adopt
whatever content you have and kind of
showing us how you map out your side hustle around your full-time job or
around or university. And I think this will be
super helpful if you could share this also in the cost
project gallery section. Because then others
can get inspired by how you as a mother with
kids or as a uni student, or as someone with
a full-time job and studying for an
extra qualification and also with a side hustle, seeing how everyone with their different
responsibilities and different side hustles,
managers their time. I will try and include mine in the class project
gallery as well so that you guys can have a
deep look at that. And it would just be great to see your products
when they are ready.
7. Organisation with Notion: I'm is great, but you
also need to be super organized to have a side hustle outside of your full-time job. Even now when I'm not on top of my planning and organizing, I can easily get overwhelmed with the amount of things
that I need to do. In this lesson, I'm gonna
be showing you how I use this app which
is called notion and how I use that to plan out my saddle sores and to help
me alongside the time lucky, you guys do not have
to use this app, but you can just take the key
principles and apply it to wherever planning and organizing app or notebook that you like. As we saw in the
previous lesson, at 50% of my time
goes towards YouTube. So this is how I keep track
of my YouTube scheduled here. I can keep track of
publishing date. I can keep track of whether I've actually recorded
the video or not. I can keep track of
what of content here. This isn't a video
about YouTube content, but this is just an
example of how I keep track of that particular cycles. In this, I also have a template for my new YouTube videos. Or when I want to start
in a YouTube video, I want to start the
planning process for it. I can just click on
the template and it automatically
gives me a structure. Another tip that I
would have is to have a weekly focus specifically
for your side, hustle speak each week and take those weekly focuses no more
than three, I would say, and break them down into
a to-do list so that you can get really practical and know exactly what
you need to achieve.
8. Execution : After learning about
the key ways to plan and organize your time
in the previous lesson, the key thing, the crucial, crucial thing that everyone
needs to do is to execute, needs to start to
take action from the day that you are
watching this today, even if it's just one
little thing that you do. And the main reason for that is a lot harder to try and figure something out when you
haven't gotten started yet. Action creates momentum. So some of my top tips
for execution, one is, as I previously mentioned
in another lesson, is to create a to-do list
to do this up my cave. And they gave me direction. As you are watching
this right now, start thinking, what
are your next steps? Rial to-do list and an a
deadline to each bulleted list. Whenever your first task is, when do you need
to get that done? By number two, if
your side hustle is something that requires
you to create some form of content or that
requires you to create tribe batching,
that creation process. So for me, I like
to batch create YouTube videos and lactic
batch create reels. Whatever that is for you, badging might be
something that can add a lot less obstruction and adult lot less hurdle towards
you completing those tasks. And, and in one
sitting in one day, you can create an app content or whatever it is that you want to create for the whole week or
for the whole month didn't. Number three is to set some
boundaries and priorities. You're worried that
your fall overworked or you feel burned out again, we're worried that you
will lose some friends. Although maintaining
a side hustle or alongside your full-time job, it does require some sacrifices. There shouldn't be
some boundaries. So set your boundaries
annual priorities. This might be that after every six weeks of working
on your side hustle, you might want to take
a one-minute break me. I have the boundary
that if I start to see my physical health or my
mental health deteriorating, then the first thing I'm going
to do is to part my side. Hustle took aside for a little
bit so that I can gather myself because my
own personal health and my world that's
going to affect how I perform in my side hustles
and in my full-time job, it's important to also
enjoy the process as well. And not just spend all your time trying to attain some
sort of future happiness, but making the process
absolutely miserable. So I would advise to spend
some time thinking about what your priorities and
your boundaries are when starting your
9. The Sustenance Routine : So far we've looked at
planning our side hustle, executing our side hustle. But another important aspect
of maintaining your cipher, so with your full-time job
is your sustenance routine. I kind of touched on it
in the previous lessons, but what I mean by
this is the part of your routine that
doesn't include work, but it's going to allow
you to just keep going and be able to do this consistently. Major concern that I even have on myself or for others
isn't burning out. Having a side hustle
can sometimes feel like you have two
full-time jobs. So I would highly
recommend is to have a sustenance routine
in your daily routine. Don't just go all out for six
weeks and just go flat out, overwork yourself, then push yourself into burnout
and then take a break. I have never experienced
burnout before. And my number one reason why I think that
this is the case, That's because in
my daily routine, there are things that I do that allow me to
keep going there, things that I do to
maintain my health, my mental health that allow
me to keep pushing it. So when you get onto the filling your class project
for your planning out your time and you're
looking at things that you can do to get your
side hustle done. Also adding things
that are going to be essential for your
sustenance, sleep, Jim. Healthy eating. It
could be meditating, it could be praying,
it could be. I don't know, you
know what that is for you that you need to do to just make sure
that you remain fresh and makes sure that
you remain very vigorous, that you remain motivated, but make sure that
you are taking at least one to three hours daily and that you are doing those things because sometimes it just
kind of follow. Okay, but what is this doing? How is this contributing to helping me grow
my side hustle? But you are the ending that
builds your side hustle. So anything that you do
to build yourself and to help yourself ultimately
helps your side hustle. It's so much better to
take time back from unproductive tasks
like scrolling on tiktok for hours or
binge watching Netflix. Then to take time out from crucial things like your sleep, crucial things like
your exercise, crucial things like family time, because these things will ask the support the growth of you, your full-time job
and your side hustle.
10. Building a Team : If I had left this
lesson till last, because I know not everyone
will be able to relate to this lesson at the
current moment and maybe perhaps you
can come back to it when it does
it relate to you. But there does come a certain point in time
where you are productive, you are efficient, but
you still need more time. And the only way to do that
is to kind of bring someone on board to help you
free up that time. Of course, to do this, you probably do
need some sort of money or capital to
help you do that. But I know people who've
literally brought onboard their younger sibling throw
of activities that you should be outsourcing
our activities that are on income generating
admin tasks. For me personally, I
have a brand manager, I have someone who is literally focused on bringing me
brand sponsorships. And that is something that
is very time-consuming. I was doing it by
myself at some point, but I just realized I can't
do this as effectively by myself because then I take up
all of my time doing that. And that actually doesn't allow me to produce the content, which is what my
specialty should be. I also have an
editor as a creator. One of the longest parts of the process is the
editing process. So having an editor helps me
to free up a lot of time. I know, especially mothers and parents who
actually outsource cleaning because they spent an enormous amount of
time cleaning every week. They pay for a cleaner, and that actually allows them to spend more time on
there a muscle. Initially you might not be able to piece the two together. But when you do this
deep bed flight, where you're actually
spending your time, you realize that
there are some tasks that you don't need to
do for them to be good. And actually sometimes other people can do those
tasks better than you. So it might help you to actually pay someone
to do those tasks. So you can focus on the income generating tough key learning here is don't be afraid to
grow a team windy me too, and their team doesn't have
to look like a business team. It could be a team
of cleaners and cook whatever you want, whatever it is going
to help you free up some times that you can dedicate that to
your side, hustle.
11. Final Thoughts : Congratulations on finishing
this class and thank you for sitting with me through all the lessons I
asked you really, really enjoy
teaching this class. It also goods are finally have a coherent and
wealth full answer to my most arts to question. There's one thing that
I wish for everyone who is watching this video
is that there is at least one thing that you can really implement into
your life that will make it a lot easier for you to manage your
side hustle around your full-time job
if you already have one or if you don't already
have a side hustle, I hope that this gives you
some confidence that you can add the five little bit of time, even if it's just a
few hours per week to dedicate towards building
something, to dedicate towards. I'm working on
something of passion to dedicate towards putting
another stream of income, to dedicate to
studying for something alongside your job because that is also a cycle sort as well. If there is, then please go ahead and leave me
a positive review. Most importantly, please
remember to enjoy this process. I know I've spoken
about it before, but I just want to echo it again because it's likely
that most of us are starting side hustles because we believe that it
will contribute to some sort of a
longer-term goal that will make us happier
whether it's money, whether it's a better job, whether it's something
that we're doing, a bit more filling and more fun. But it's also important to enjoy that process leading
up to it as well. Go out there and take action. I can't wait to see
your class project. It will be so helpful for everyone else who is
watching this as well to see all the different
creative ways that you got to come up with for finding
time for your side hustle. Thank you so much for watching. Bye.
