Fortaleza 2022 August-October. Intend to remain here from August to October, executing the plans and steps defined in 2022 July.
Fortaleza 2022 August-October Goals
I decided basically to separate my day in two different half-day work, as I defined in Fortaleza 2022 July.
- Side projects should, after an initial work, become passive income.
- I.T. work income should increase the investment portfolio to increase the passive income.
Plan and routine
Each one of the 2-parts below generates monthly goals and related tasks, that I put in a backlog, ordered by importance.
Every day, I took from the priority backlog item, try to solve it.
After I execute the task, I put it in the done items, something like this, that I can track and understand later (just a sample):
221024: 6P5D) ionic/android: calculator app-debug.apk
221022: Emma: OZ restored
221020: 6P5D) ionic/android: calculator
221020: Emma: archive landing page –> OZ/CE
221019-20: x51-R: broken link adjust
…
I use for this control just a simple text file.
It is also essential to separate a time for health and social life, and I am doing this.
Side Projects
Main site
The main output of the side projects appears in our main page Work4Love.net.
I reorganized what I have done since the domain is created and made improvements.
Many people didn’t know everything the website has, then I added a help page, written in Portuguese, but with Google Translator button.
To inform what resources I added, I decided to create a Twitter account @CelsoNomad. I also changed my author nickname here from @fireNomad to @CelsoNomad, to be consistent.
Photos
Travelling less, then less travel posts.
But I started to put my photos in Getty Images.
My profile is still very in the beginning, under construction.
Archive
Some friends asked me to republish two old sites that didn’t exist anymore.
These pages used to be at Geocities.com.
I group both of them below the Archive area (Portuguese) in Work4Love.net.
These are the sites:
- Australia 1998 September November (a 3-month trip to study English).
- Fortaleza 2000 November (walking in Fortaleza Beira-Mar promenade through pictures).
As you can see by the dates, both are more than 20 years older.
I just made them responsive to mobile, and adjusted some few words and menus.
Career
Some side projects will involve technical issues, I guess that I need to learn to updated with the market.
I am still not certain about what kind of work exactly I will choose, then I am studying the different available options.
At this point, I really don’t know even if I will return to a 9-5 work (remote or not), or will be freelancing, or even as a solopreneur.
Study
Aligned with the objectives related to the 2 different paths I am following, I’ve also made a study plan, including everything I could possibly need.
IT
Just for learning, I also created this simple calculator, in React, which I want to convert to Android using Ionic, and publish to Play Store in the future.
To me, this is something I am still learning.
I also published some little IT hints from my background, I hope it can be useful.
Conclusion
This will be a short post because it is just an update.
Currently, I am writing this post, I still don’t know who will be our next president.
Unfortunately, our beloved country is almost divided between both parts, a lot of hate, and intolerance among Brazilians, election times has been tense.
It is a journey, I am following between 2 ways, also including time to study, and sometimes it seems that I am very slow, but I guess it is important to remain focused.
By the way, I will need to travel and socialize with some friends, in 2022 December, and 2023 January, tickets are also bought, then we should have some few new travel posts and photos.
In the backlog, there is a plan to publish and integrate also the travel videos with this blog, and a tourist post about Fortaleza, my hometown.
