# Mission: From Labourer to Owner

## Why
You already have a side business/product, but you are still mostly the labourer inside it — trading skill and hours for progress. You want to rewire how you work so the business becomes an **equity asset** that builds wealth, not a second job that consumes you.

## Success looks like
- You can tell, for any hour of work, whether it created **wages** (labour) or **equity** (asset value)
- Your side business can create value without you doing every technical task yourself
- You deliberately spend a protected slice of time each week on owner work (strategy, systems, leverage, product market, sales systems)
- Over time, your income shifts from “I shipped hours” toward “I own something that earns”

## Constraints
- **~1–2 hours/week** for learning + practice — every lesson must fit a short session and leave one real-world action
- You are a developer with a live side product — lessons must be applied to *that* business, not abstract MBA theory
- Nothing is permanently off-limits (fundraising, finance, people, etc.) but depth is gated by what moves equity now

## Out of scope
- Nothing hard-blocked for now
- Soft priority: long MBA case studies and corporate politics before you need them
