I wrote an article recently about how I write hard topics. I also write boring articles on sleep-inducing subjects.

When I start talking about cigars, fans, or games, I see my girlfriend’s eyes glaze over. She’s actually very supportive, it’s just that the topics don’t exactly light a fire in anyone’s fancy.

Yet, these boring topics consistently bring in thousands of dollars per month.

After going through this process for a year, I’ve developed a system that makes me up to $4,000 or $5,000 per month. My highest month was $7,000.

This article is about how I do it.

Update: Due to the amazing questions readers asked me about this article, I posted a super boring follow-up FAQs article with boring answers to the most-asked questions (The best reading order is to start with this article and then read the sequel).
