Goals Plans and Thoughts

July 18, 2007 in Motivation, Random Thought

These past weeks have not been easy. At times, we’ve both been really down and depressed. I can’t remember the last time we were both depressed – usually one of us is up and optimistic even though the other is down. Analyzing our recent setback, it has set us back months and it will be many more months before we will rebuild our cashflow to a substantial level. I guess it was just not meant for us to reach our goal of $10,000/day with AdSense alone. Although I know what I must do in order to reach my goals and make a comeback, it just feels like a very daunting task. We’ve given some serious thoughts of just leaving everything behind and travel for a year or two and try to get more inspiration and motivation. Another thought we had was to help other people with their business ideas. A lot of times people have million dollar ideas, but they just don’t start or have the experience to get their ideas up. I will put back the forums we originally had on RTPT. About 2 years ago we tried to get help and offer help to friends and relatives by setting up a private forum here to bounce ideas, support, and help motivate each other. The forum quickly died because as we found out, you cannot force this way of thinking onto anyone. They must choose to be awakened themselves and choose to take the journey to becoming rich. Most people we know are perfectly content with having zero passive income and recently it has crossed my mind – what if I just took the easy path and just not cared about becoming rich? What if I was never awakened? I could have avoided the recent stress and pain. But to have experienced the feeling of having so much money flow to you everyday and having the feeling that you “took care of money” is just indescribable and I think needs to be experienced at least once in one’s lifetime.

Making Passive Income Online

July 14, 2007 in Random Thought, Toys

My new laptop arrived last week and so far it has proven to be a good investment. I’ve been playing some new games on it and working on some projects. But more importantly it has allowed me to get out of my room. It was too depressing working in my room and I needed a change of scenery. 

I’ve been also getting a lot of comments and emails asking for the magic or secret website or traffic source to make money online – basically asking how to get rich quick. The answer is there is no instant get rich quick method if your thoughts are incomplete or flawed from the start. Do not get me wrong, it is possible to get rich quickly. But if you were following this blog since the beginning, you would know that we were not making any money for a long time, instead we spent alot of time just learning and slowly building  websites and trying all sorts of ideas. We found out that you can really invest two things, Time and/or Money. The secret is to trying to leverage other people’s time and/or money.  A lot of people want money from the beginning without investing neither TIME or MONEY. If you do not have much money or are in debt, I recommend you just get a job and work on building your passive income slowly. Set out a goal of just making ONE dollar a day in passive income. After work, build your financial and business skills by investing time into books, making sites or blogs. And in time, it will be easy for you to make passive income.
