Did you know that it took me 6 months into my business to coin the term Non-Nine-to-Fiver?
I was sitting at my kitchen table one morning in my studio apartment in Queens, NYC doing some journaling.
As I was writing I asked myself a series of questions that led me to this thought . . .
If I had been self-employed for 3 years and I had zero intention of going back to a 9-5 and zero intention of working for someone else and I knew I was meant to do purposeful work on my own terms, then what did that make me?
“Well, I’m not a 9-5r that’s for sure,” I remember thinking to myself. “So what’s the opposite of a 9-5r? Oh, a NON9-5r.”
And in that moment the term Non-Nine-to-Fiver was born.
So how do you know you are a Non-Nine-to-Fiver?
You know you are not meant for the 9-5
You know you have zero intention of working for someone else
You are committed to doing deep growth and development work
You are a High-Level person who isn’t willing to let her excuses run the show
You are consistent with your actions
And what happens when you truly step into and embody these 5 bullet points? Check out what Nicole, a Non-Nine-to-Five Virtual English Coach recently celebrated:
“I just booked my first two continuing clients last week! This is a big deal for me because these are the first two clients, I signed up through a program model that Jen taught me rather than an hourly rate. During my call my student’s dad expressed that they love working with me, have grown a lot in their English language skills and confidence, and they are signing up for another 3-month program with me. Looking forward to more continuing clients!”
