Six months ago, I achieved a personal milestone: I made my first $1 by selling my ebook online.
Fast forward to today, and that humble dollar has grown into $1,000, thanks to my online infoproducts and offering design and writing services to clients.
- No, I didn’t make a million dollars
- No, I’m not living near a beach
- No, I’m not an expert at it
But what I can proudly say is that I’ve managed to carve out a living while staying true to my creative instincts and values.
- I don’t have a boss.
- I don’t have an office.
- I don’t even have structured worktime & terribly miss the bifurcation between work and family.
Truth be told, it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. Landing clients and ensuring a consistent monthly income can be a rollercoaster ride.
But that’s all part of the game, right?
I traded…
- stability for peace
- security for freedom
- certainty for creativity
And while I may not know where this road will lead me, I’m determined to keep moving forward.
After all, it’s about the journey, not just the destination.
Wishing you a happy journey as well!
Whatever your destination maybe!
