I came across a video by the YouTuber Ali Abdaal in which he discusses “The Book [He’s] Ever Read about Making Money.” One message that stuck with me was that the timescale for getting rich quickly is actually about 10 years. That should be what you have in mind, not becoming a millionaire in a … Continue reading Get Rich Fast-About 10 Years
I’ve been listening to this book, Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals by Oliver Burkeman unrelated to the work I’m doing on the blog and a key takeaway is that, in the grand scheme of things, whatever you do won’t matter. That’s not to make you feel bad about yourself, but to think of … Continue reading Stop Putting So Much Pressure on Yourself
It's time to stop procrastinating and start working on the "serious" blog again.For almost the past year, I picked up a side gig, an unpaid side gig, that really took up my time. I'm grateful for the experience though. Since that's been done, I've been procrastinating working on the big blog again by posting on … Continue reading Back to the Basics
I don’t have much to report today. I was able to log in to my host’s site today. I haven’t figured out how to get rid of the static homepage for my site though. I thought I got rid of it awhile ago. It confuses me that I click a preview of my page in … Continue reading Trudging Along
I haven’t worked on the blog much over the last few months. I picked up a new obligation that took some time to get used to and that simply required a lot of time and attention. I’ve had a break and it will pick back up soon, but I think I will be better to … Continue reading Getting the Ball Rolling

I got a nugget about blogging from The Darius Foroux Show podcast, episode titled Diversifying Income: Starting A Profitable Blog. This episode was published on June 26, 2018, about four years ago from the day I listened to this podcast. In this podcast, Foroux said he thinks he's going to start a blog or a … Continue reading Put Your Personality into Your Content via Darius Foroux
I finished the research paper I revisited yesterday and wrote some notes on that. I did not purchase the domain name for this site yet though. I might listen to another podcast about building a profitable blog later on. I once found this guide that was a thorough step-by-step process for creating a profitable blog, … Continue reading Where’s that Guide?: Daily Update
Today, I listened to a podcast about how to build a profitable blog. It was about one woman's story. The notes should be within this folder. The main takeaways were that she used ads from the beginning, then incorporated affiliate marketing in her second year, then sponsored posts, which she started off charging $200/post when … Continue reading What’s in a Name Change?: Daily Update
Today, I continued reading the review paper and made some more notes. I think today's reading was insightful both personally and content-wise. I suspect that I will end up condensing a lot of it though in the final draft. This is a good start though to have to remove or edit down content rather than … Continue reading Writing Schedule Continued: Daily Update
