This is pretty awkward to write so I won’t blabber on and on about this and that.20191 Failed POD Store, bad design, bad targeting, bad ads, generic stuffs nobody wants, zero value offered. Earned $50 but lost over $400. On and off.2020Tried to make games and apps, another form of “productive” procrastination, was pretty high on ideas that I might make $10,000/day like those stories. Ended up making $10. Zero value offered.2021Yea… dumbest year ever. Lost 2k on GME. Enough said. I was mostly binging novels and put bare minimum effort to pass the university courses. Lazy ass for sure.2022JanuaryNothing life changing happened tbh. I just decided one day I had enough and if I ever wanted to be as rich as those protagonists in novels I gotta put in more effort. I asked myself what valuable skills have I learned over the years and decided to offer them as services. Super common thing right? But the me in the past would have said: “But, but, that’s not scalable! You are trading your time for money! It’s better to focus on something that has higher revenue potential!”I was acting like I will be a founder of the next unicorn.The unicorn-founder-me made a total of $60 over the course of three years while the current me have already closed two deals worth $500 in just 5 or 6 days of taking real action. And I have already found a 2k deal, it’s just that the price hasn’t been finalized yet (but should be around this amount) and the deal also includes monthly fee for managing the project. (And a $300 deal that went nowhere cause the client refused to reply. So that’s a fail.)So, $60 in 3 years vs $500 in 5-6 days. That’s the result of real action taking and providing real value to customers. And when I said this, I really do mean it. Go above and beyond, don’t just satisfy them, but impress them! (I stole this nugget of wisdom somewhere.) Satisfying a customer is just the bare minimum.Now please excuse me, I am so busy nowadays that I have no time for novels anymore. I couldn’t even sleep last night cause I was too excited.2022 is pretty interesting.(It’s not that hard to guess what services I am offering)(I should charge more, but it’s better taking baby steps.)(This is more for those who struggle to make money online) see hubwealthy.com/wealthy
