A day job puts you in the path of other human beings, but you can learn from them, steal from them. Iโve tried to take jobs where I can learn things that I can use in my work later,my library job taught me how to do research.
The truth is that even if youโre lucky enough to make a living off doing what you truly love, it will probably take you a while to get to that point.
Until then, youโll need a day job.
Thereโs an economic theory out there that if you take the incomes of your five closest friends and average them, the resulting number will be pretty close to your own income.
This doesnโt work in my country; Nigeria ๐ณ๐ฌ
@AlexHormozi approach might not resonate with Nigerian audiences long-term, giving away too much value for free can create entitlement.
When you eventually monetize, some folks might get upset, questioning why you're charging for something they think should be free.
The only thing that matters now is whether you actually know the person youโre writing for.
Which is why audience research is my first focus in any content strategy.
