You Know How to Work Hard. Is That Still Buying the Life You Want?
52 Weeks to Self-Reliance — a practical roadmap toward something more secure.
Rowhomes, rising taxes, and the kind of hustle this city has always respected. You've never been afraid of hard work. The question worth asking is whether the hard work is actually building anything that's yours, or just covering the gap for another year.
This book won't hand you a finished life. It hands you one clear, deliberate decision a week, in the right order, for a full year — the same decisions that took me from a business collapse and deep debt to debt-free, on a hundred acres of forest, in a cabin I built with my own hands.
52 Weeks to Self-Reliance: One Year of Deliberate Decisions to Take Back Your Time, Money, and Freedom asks for one thing a week, in the right order, for a full year. Fifty-two assignments. None of them require land you don't have yet, money you don't have yet, or a resignation letter on day one.
Seven Parts. Fifty-Two Weeks.
About Shawn James
Shawn James spent years building and running a commercial roofing company before it collapsed, leaving him deep in debt. He rebuilt from there, one deliberate decision at a time, and today he and his wife own more than a hundred acres of forest in the Canadian wilderness, debt-free, in a log cabin he built by hand. He shares that life at My Self Reliance.
