2025 Goals: Week 6
🔹 Had a great week
🔹 Made progress with Lisapet.ai
🔹 Feeling Happy and Effective
1️⃣ Great & Sunny place: ✅
Still in Bangkok. Vibrant place. Happy to be here.
Next steps: continue to explore Bangkok. Rely on Valery for entertainment options.
2️⃣ Sleep: 7/10 🟡
Better than last week, but still not managing to go to bed earlier. Next week will try to stick to reading before bed as an experiment (want to buy and try kindle for that)
Next steps: read for 30 min before bed every day for the next week.
3️⃣ Workouts: 2/2 times ✅
Even though we moved to a new apartment with a temporarily closed gym, I’ve managed to exercise with my own weight and swimming.
Slowly building toward the idea of exercising for 30 min every day.
Next steps: have 2 workouts next week.
4️⃣ Fuel eating: 7/7 days ✅
Sticked to Weight Lost Zone the whole week.
Lost 1.1 killos.
Already feel much healthier and leaner than before.
Next steps: continue eating healthier every day for the next week.
5️⃣ Having Fun: ✅
Had one of the best sushi in Bangkok at Fumi Japanesse Cousine and delightful cocktails at Salon du japonisant by Bacchus. Also visited Sea Life Bangkok – it was not that bad as the one could think 😅
Next steps: continue having fun and spending time on weekend with my lovely wife.
6️⃣ Full-time job: ✅
Kicked-off hiring process for Web Designer and Copywriter roles. Making progress with new website template architecture. Making progress with new stock image provider for Yola’s AI implementation.
Next steps: continue time boxing my working hours according to commitment.
7️⃣ Protected Status in Ukraine: ✅
Received the renewed Criticality status for my business this week.
Next steps: re-apply for exemption by the end of the month; contact the tax advisor Payoneer gave me and open Payoneer’s business account next week.
8️⃣ Residence in Portugal: ✅
Had a call with Anchorless.io as planned this week. The immigration strategy is confirmed. Technical Blockers: 1) Confirmation that I can apply in embassy in Bangkok – requested via email, waiting for response; 2) Taxes
Feel like something is blocking me emotionally from taking this step. Still figuring out what it is with my therapist. I guess it’s taxes. Open-minded about the alternative of having D8 only with Portugal and living there for up to 6 months per year.
Next steps: schedule a consultation with a tax expert from Anchorless.io next week.
9️⃣ Lisapet.ai: 21/20 hours ✅
Had an emotional breakdown with the team this week. Emphasized the lack of and need for faster progress. This combined with the strategy of going with very small increments I’ve pushed previously helped to make release 5 increments this week. Feels right.
Next steps: continue building product for at least 20 hours per week with smallest increments possible.
Side note: coding is still something that does not bring excitement to me, but fulfilment of getting progress in building the product covers that for now.
1️⃣ 0️⃣ Buying Real Estate: 💡
My doubts with immigrating to Portugal make me open to the idea of buying the real estate there as a non-resident for investment purposes.
Next steps: continue to accumulate money for the down payment.
1️⃣ 1️⃣ Gusarov Studio: 😎
Had an in-bound client this week. Earned €150 for a consultation. The efforts taken last year still payoff. Something to keep for myself as a reminder.
Next steps: continue rejecting opportunities unrelated to Lisapet.ai, continue to provide paid consultations.
