Most people think making money online takes months, even years. I used to think the same way. But then I discovered a simple process that allowed me to earn my first dollars in under a week.

This isn’t a “get rich quick” scheme. It’s not passive income magic. It’s about taking one clear idea, packaging it quickly, and putting it in front of people who need it.

Here’s how I did it — and how you can too.

Step 1: I Chose a Tiny Problem to Solve

Instead of trying to write a 200-page book, create a full course, or launch a big membership, I started small. I looked at what people in my circle were struggling with.

For me, it was time management for busy writers. Friends often asked, “How do you find time to write with a full-time job and kids?”

That was my clue. I didn’t need to solve everything. I just needed to solve one problem well.

Step 2: I Packaged the Solution Fast

I gave myself a strict deadline:

3 days. That’s all.
