I think this post is a treasure trove of good advice. I’ll have to do some deeper reading of this as the advice seem solid.

Since I’ve quit my last job in 2018 I feel like I’ve tried it all when it comes to revenue sources:

* consulting - still my main source of income

* writing a newsletter - brings about $400-$600 a month but there are some dry days on the horizon

* selling newsletter merch - I’m in red every month with only one t-shirt design

* evaluating EU project proposals - nice side gig 1-2 times a year

* writing a course with a publisher - after 3 months I’m nowhere near getting a good return of investment on the time spent but it was fun and I’d do it again

* writing an influencer posts on LinkedIn - was a one-off thing but paid really well

I feel like doing too many things at one could be a problem for me and focusing on a subset of things could bring better results.

If you are in a position to work for yourself then I would highly recommend it.
