SUMMARY:

So I’m several weeks deep into my 0 Hour Challenge. It’s been a challenge. Tons of wins, tons of self sabotage trying to keep me stuck. 

I realized that I had a huge fear of letting go and compensated by being a perfectionist and trying to control everything. 

But I discovered that these were both surface level issues. The underlying problem was not fear but unworthiness. 

I subconsciously believed in unworthiness and so I had to appear perfect to be valuable. 

Appearing to be perfect is what drove my compulsive overthinking and over-optimization when what I really needed was simple, but scary:

Let go of the fear and the unworthiness. Not by shaming it out, but by loving it out. Accepting the fear and the unworthiness as part of the journey I had to learn from.

For example, this initial update is late. I got overwhelmed trying to do too much, so I prioritized implementing the challenge instead of writing about it.

Not stoked about it, but it is what it is. I’m learning, and I promised real, not perfect. Maybe that’s an excuse, but onward.

0 HOUR CHALLENGE EPISODE #02 July 1, 2025

TIME REMAINING: 0 DAYS | 0%

0 HOUR CHALLENGE STATUS UPDATES

 ✅ Brand 100% automated + asynchronous

CURRENT STATUS: Incomplete.

Close, but not 100% there, yet. Everything is defined, systemized but not 100% delegated or automated.

I received almost 600 applications to join my team that I have vetted down to a dozen or so competent team members and so far have two VA’s I am in the process of ramping up from trial tasks to projects and lastly, full time placement.

In the past few weeks, my team has done the following:

• Created blog and video content

• Setup my entire advertising campaign

• Setup Analytics + Tracking infrastructure

• Setup automated lead gen (using ManyChat)

• Helped me analyze and vet candidate applications

So while I can’t say I’m 100% automated/async, we are likely a few days/weeks away which I’m stoked about! So this is a huge win for me.

✅ 4FS: Fun + Family + Flow + Fitness Every Day

CURRENT STATUS: Complete.

I am happy with my progress here. I maintained a steady flow across the board here. Nearly every single day featured time with family, heavy lifting times per week plus daily movement. I made time for deep, flow state work as well, but I need to be more consistent with my schedule to optimize this. In addition, I would like to proactively schedule more fun experiences on a weekly and monthly basis that I can look forward to. By increasing my awareness around these four areas, I learned to slow down and appreciate the now with family and by myself. Overall, this was the biggest win of all.

✅ 0 Hours Non-Zone of Genius Time (0 meetings, 0 admin or management)

CURRENT STATUS: Complete. Aside from a few fires, I have reduced energy draining work to a few minutes per day. The majority of essential tasks are in process of delegation. However, this was extremely difficult at first. I realized I had a ton of resistance and self sabotaging patterns around this disguised as busywork. I realized this is literally just an addiction to busy work to keep myself from avoiding the real work… Confronting my fears. I told myself that I did this because I was a perfectionist. But, that was superficial, ego protection. Beneath perfectionism was fear of failure and being judged. I had to observe this pattern a few times before I could identify and finally make peace with it. I forgave myself for past ‘failures’ and trauma that I was holding onto like getting cut from my college team, failed partnerships and bankruptcy. I learned to become grateful for each of these moments because they were lessons that I needed to learn in order to evolve and grow. This was powerful for me. Now let’s get into the data. Here it is from my Rescuetime account:

The majority of my time was spent in ChatGPT for Analysis, Copywriting, Strategy, Google Documents for Writing and Canva for Content Creation + Design.

✅ Daily Growth: new leads + sales + wins daily without me, sales calls or team

CURRENT STATUS: Incomplete.

So for the last week or so, we are getting new traffic and leads every day thanks to ads and organic content, however, we need to ramp up the volume here. Most importantly, I am not yet getting daily sales. I also realized that I had a lot of resistance here due to the above fears. For example, I would routinely procrastinate by spending time building and optimizing things (like infrastructure, docs, etc) instead of getting out there and selling which has been the primary bottleneck. The next step is to increase volume of lead generation activities (ads, content + outreach) and then conversion rate optimization.

Most Important Lessons Learned:

1. Slow down. Enjoy.

2. Family is everything.

3. The now is all there is, forever.

4. Perfectionism is fear in disguise, not a badge of honor.

5. Workaholism is an addiction and should be treated as such. It ruins health, lives, minds, relationships and robs you of time you’ll never get back.
