I generated this weekly schedule a few months ago using ChatGPT; by feeding it my goal document and asking what my schedule would look like to achieve these goals. It does look somewhat similar to what I already do, especially on weekends. But it’s good to see what I need to do to get to where I want to be in 10 years. This lifestyle is not for everyone, but I am making it public for educational purposes.
