My quest to millionaire... first step quit smoking

Posted 10-29-2011 at 07:10 PM by iAmNameLess

So it looks like I won't hit 1 million dollars this year, not even ANYWHERE CLOSE. The first step in reaching my goal, is to quit smoking.

Most people might smoke a pack a day, I am so high strung that I was smoking 2 packs a day. 2 packs a day for an average 30 day month = $300-350 a month. That is $3,000-$3,500 a year. Sure that little amount isn't going to make me a millionaire, but lets break down the amount of time smoking takes away from work.

I go outside to smoke... if an average cigarette takes me 5 minutes to smoke.... I'm smoking 200 minutes a day with 2 packs a day... 1 pack is just 100 minutes. 2 packs a day is over 3 hours a day! Imagine that 3 hours being on the phone cold calling businesses informing them that I can make them more money than they are making right now! 3 hours a day smoking, is 15 hours a typical 40 hour work week.

52 week X 15 hours = 780 hours.... Can you guys believe that? that amount of time WASTED.

Now, 780 hours divided by a 24 hour day is 32.5 days. Of course I am not working 24 hours every day. I work about half that but lets just say my time cold calling is 8 hours a day. So take that 32.5 X 3.

Not smoking is going to help me get an extra 3 months worth of work in.

So that extra $3,000 a year is peanuts compared to my extra 3 months of work!

Still, nowhere near to millionaire status, but it is a start I guess. Want to support the cause? I offer SEO and Web design, among other services at http://www.too2web.com (am I allowed to self promote in my own blog?)
