How to find the perfect passive income stream for YOU
The most important lesson I learned from my failure.
I still remember the moment I sold my very first product online.
It was in my summer holiday, and I was just walking back from the beach when the Etsy app on my phone pinged. Cha-ching! I’d made a sale!
It was a product priced at 3 dollars, and I had discounted it, so the total amount was $1.80 (minus fees).
But for me, it was a lot more than $1.80. It was a beginning.
Right now, I have three passive income streams that are working out for me:
I have an Etsy shop where I sell printables and make about $1000 per month. I write on Medium, where I made $2169 in the Partner Program in December. And I do affiliate marketing, where I made $4000 last month.
Learning from failures
That may sound like a great success story (and for me, it is — in fact, I am still pinching my arm!).
But as it often is, the road to success is paved with failures. Or learnings, as I like to think of them.
Every time I failed, I also learned something. And I hadn’t done those failures (or learnings), I would perhaps not had the successes either.
