Turning Your Passion Into Cash

Turning Your Passion Into Cash

What is the one thing in your life that you do with enthusiasm? What is the one thing that you do without getting tired? What is the one thing that you do which can also benefit other people and the society? What is the one thing that when you do, it makes other people enjoy your company?
I am passionate in reading, working on computers and teaching. The best thing I could do was to add professional touch to them.
With computers, I had to look for someone who was into it (hardware etc) and has succeeded and learn from him. The same thing applies to teaching and reading.
Let me talk about how I turned reading into cash. I have read variety of books(Life application books) from bestselling authors which have influenced my life positively. Therefore I thought it wise to bless people with them. I have to get them in bulk, convince and influence people to read. That is where I get my money. Buyers are happy, I also become happy. Giving out discovery and getting paid for it.
Let’s talk about computers. I specialized in computer hardware (desktop) way back 2007. My purpose was to use it to service my own computer. Currently I havelearnt how to service laptops as well. I can repair my laptop and other people's own which also pays. On computers again, I have discovered free online courses with certificate. I teach people and get paid.
Let’s talk about teaching proper. I can teach ICT at any level. Introduction to computer, M.S word, hardware and internet skills. Believe you me most I.T guys are not good at communication skills,hence I had to take advantage of it and improve on it through studies and training. I can also teach on religion ( Bible and Theology). Finally on teaching, I am also a trainer. I believe in influence and motivating people to reaching their goals. I train people and intend charging for that in the near future.
Now on advice 101: A lot of people do not invest in right assert. Most people prefer following fashion, games and other things toacquiring knowledge, which inthe end makes them a liability.
A lot of people also think they know it all, hence they don’t want to inquire, acquire and see if there is something new to what a person is bringing onboard. No one can claim to be knowledgeable in all fields. I suggest at least, listen before you draw conclusions.
In other to be on top of the game, you need to have a lot of positive information. Hence education must be timeless. You don’t pursue a course and think is enough. Move to another level. You can’t hold on to your old information, you need to be current. In your field of play, research and discover. Learn new things from other people too. Almost always you ask people 'who is your mentor'and they reply I am my own mentor. But the truth is where you are heading to, someone has taken the lead and has succeeded big time. That is why you will need that person to motivate and guide you so that you can even achieve the best.
Lastly, let’s talk about balance. When you are working on your passion, make sure there is balance. Study on the following too:
Religion, Education, Finance, and Health.Without these, you are going nowhere.
