I get a ton of questions lately about working from home and growing passive income. What’s great is that I see a whole range of questions, like: Thalia, how do you stay motivated? How do I keep my kids from driving me insane? How am I supposed to set goals when I don’t know what’s going to happen? How can I possibly get everything done at home? What’s the best way to earn money on the side? I love all these questions. It’s funny though, isn’t it? How we’re doing similar thing...
I get a ton of questions lately about working from home and growing passive income.
What’s great is that I see a whole range of questions, like:
- Thalia, how do you stay motivated?
- How do I keep my kids from driving me insane?
- How am I supposed to set goals when I don’t know what’s going to happen?
- How can I possibly get everything done at home?
- What’s the best way to earn money on the side?
I love all these questions. It’s funny though, isn’t it? How we’re doing similar things we did pre-COVID and just going about in our lives, but because everything’s changed now, we’re much more aware of the things that we like and don’t like.
It’s like someone just plugged a speaker phone into all our activities and it screams back, “Hey, this is just NOT working!”
Everything feels bigger in smaller quarters.
And because of this, you may feel like things are just running on a loop and happiness is like a one-off privilege that you have to keep fighting for.
What I discover about work and business, though, is that they will likely suffer when you’re out of sorts, and definitely when you’re unhappy.
So how DO you stay sane, successful, AND happy at home while getting ahead and growing your business?
Spend a ton of time on the things that give you happiness and meaning, and a timed amount on the things that don’t.
The odd thing about working from home, is that no one ever talks about treating your day like there’s an external time-table that runs the whole show (even though life DOES keep moving on)!
It’s YOUR show. You get to decide.
Of course, there are things that are not always fun to do but needs to get done (like brushing your teeth and looking at how you did in your business). AND on the things that make you feel like you’re on vacation! Whether that’s one hour or one week on a particular goal, it’s your call.
Find ways to love the progress first, BEFORE you find the profit.
I think we’ve done ourselves a disservice whenever people throw around things like, “Love what you do, THEN you’ll be happy”.
First of all, I think this is super confusing. It makes us chase that momentary high that we associate with loving something. And it focuses on already loving or hating something, versus cultivating that appreciation for what you’re meant to do.
In reality, you won’t always love everything WHILE you’re at it.
For instance, I love my kids, but I honestly just don’t like what comes with parenting.
Love is not the same as like.
I love working out as a whole. But I don’t always like waking up to it.
So if you want to crush your work and business goals, or even earn more, find ways to make the long days … easier, lighter, or more fun.
Know that passive income IS possible, after targeted activity.
There’s a misconception being thrown around right now that passive income is … all just about sitting back in your PJs and watching things roll in.
Um … sorry, but that’s not (never has been and never will be) the case. And this misconception drives many entrepreneurs into misery, thinking, “Why is it not working?”
Yes, passive income is possible, but only AFTER you’ve put in the appropriate amount of activity, investment, and energy and time upfront. What this means is that if your income or business is still going nowhere, the things you’ve done upfront might need some tweaking.
This is true for both offline and online income.
I’ll talk about mistakes to avoid when you’re creating passive income streams in the upcoming months.
