5 Truths I Wish I Knew When I Wasn’t Making Money Online
If you aren’t earning well from your writing, maybe you’re making the same mistakes?
Sometimes, the grass is greener on the other side.
In 2020, I knew I wanted to become a full-time writer. But I also had my doubts.
Will writing truly pay my bills?
What about the months I don’t feel like writing?
Will I always have to live from paycheck to paycheck?
Turns out, my fears were baseless.
Almost two years into this journey, I realize I couldn’t have asked for a better life.
I wake up at 9.30 AM but don’t touch my laptop until after lunch (about 4 PM). I use that time to cook, work out, and write or think about new ideas.
I work 2–3 hours a day, doing tasks that keep the flame of curiosity in my brain burning.
I take 5–6 vacations a year. Each is about two weeks long. Always, to a place that leaves lessons and memories galore.
I have the time, luxury, and mental peace to learn pole dancing, a skill that keeps me fit, challenges my creativity, and helps me embrace my body in all her wondrous glory.
