The 5 to 9 Job

Welcome to The 5 to 9 Job—my journal on growth, failure, and figuring life out. I started this show because I felt this deep need to help people like me…People trying. Failing and rebuilding. The idea was to use the hours between 5pm to 9am to grow. Slowly, my vision expanded and I wanted to do it all, to build a platform to raise others, reflect and share my interests and soon I hit a wall. Now It’s back to the basics; fewer better episodes. Each week, I share a few reflections, conversations, and stories from guests so make sure you don’t miss out on any episode. Welcome to my workshop.

How To Play The Long Game — Patience in a Fast World

We live in a world obsessed with quick wins—overnight fame, fast money, instant success.
And honestly? It’s not even our fault. The world has changed. Success is everywhere—more billionaires, more creators, more people “making it” than ever before.

But here’s the trap: when you see success everywhere, it makes patience feel like weakness.

The truth? Patience is one of the hardest skills to master.
I struggle with it every day. I want things to be easy. I want success now. I want the lifestyle that shows I’ve “made it.”

But life doesn’t work like that.
The long game teaches resilience. It teaches focus. It forces you to keep showing up even when the results aren’t visible yet.

Mark Manson wrote something I like in The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fck*: “Choose struggles that are meaningful, not easy.”
Because when the struggle means something to you, it’s easier to endure. That’s what the long game is about—enduring the grind because you care about what’s on the other side.

It’s not about waiting. It’s about working consistently, trusting the process, and letting every small step add up over time.

So here’s my challenge to you:
👉 What’s one goal you’re willing to commit to for the long haul? Drop it in the comments.

Remember—success doesn’t come fast. It comes to those who stay the course.
