10,000 Euros Month - February Update

February has been a life changing month for me. So many thing have happened that I had to step back and think about what to do next.

In particular, I started my waking up at 5 am experiment and at the same time I started to work from home full time.

This resulted in a lot more free time, while still maintaining my day job. Suffice to say I now have 3 full hours every day to work on what I want. I’ll talk more about this in a future post, but for now let’s just say that when you have all that free time available, you start to think about what you can do with it.

Not that I didn’t know what to do. Indeed 1 week ago I posted a tweet where I announced that I was working on a big affiliate website. Hard work but big potential. Except one small detail.. I didn’t care!

You know, I could spend 1 hour every day working on that, and maybe make some big money in just 2-3 months, but what’s the point?

Lesson learned: don’t work on something you don’t really love.

I learned this the hard way but now it’s time to look ahead. What’s ahead? The stuff I love to do of course, which happens to be creating stuff that people care. For example this blog is something I really love. Other things I really love is creating software and web applications.

And you know what? When I work on something I love, it works. So from now on my focus will be exclusively on creating stuff for people, and this update will become a place to share what I’ve done in that sense. The good news is that this means these updates will be all about you, not about me (you’ll see how soon).

I will still share my numbers here, but my primary goal is no longer making a specific amount of money, but instead to create value doing what I love. Money will follow.

A present for you

Update: All two spots are now gone. If you are still interested in this, stay tuned because I will open another two spots soon. I will also share everything here.

Update 2: In reality I will have 3 or 4 people following this program right now. You guys rock!

If you want to start building something online, here’s a good news for you. I’m going to offer to two of you a free 1-2 hours per month consultation.

I will give you step by step instructions to create something that will make you kick ass, based on what you love (I’ll help you to figure it out). Of course if what you want is to make money, that’s perfectly fine, indeed most of the times is what you’ll end up with anyway.

The only thing you need is 1 free hour per day to work on this, for at least 3 months. Oh, and you also have to do what I tell you to do.

Please note that this will be completely free. The only cost will be $9 to buy a domain name if necessary, but except for that I’m not going to sell you anything.

The only thing I ask in return is the permission to share the process here. You’ll always remain anonymous of course, but I do want to share the experience with others, so that I can help as many people as possible.

To apply, simply send me an email to oscar [at] thisdomain [dot] com with subject “I rock!”.

If you want to be part of this, send me an email now. We’ll figure out together what you can do, so don’t worry if you don’t know that already.

Conclusion

In the last six months I made nearly $400 by working less than 4 hours. I know it’s nothing, but I wanted to concentrate on the blog and a few other projects instead.

Now that I finally have the time, I could easily make a high monthly figure if I wanted to, but instead I want to focus on building stuff. I still want to make those money, the difference is that I am abandoning the easy and secure way to make money through article marketing in order to try something new.

What do you think? If you had three free hours per day to work on anything you want, would you use that time to work on a secure way to make money, or would you rather take the chance to explore a new path by doing what you really love? I’d love to hear your opinion.
