3 Lessons I Learned After 5 Months of Online Earning As a Newbie

Making money online is easy but at the same time difficult for the newbies.

I have been working on this for 5 months and I tried every possible way to start earning.

At first, I thought data entry is the easiest way to earn money (forgetting the fact the easier the task, the more competition it will have). When I didn't get the desired results, I switched to Microworks, Freelancing, Reselling PLR Products, Affiliate Marketing etcetera.

You can see all of them are not directly related to each other.

I was like, watching a video of a data entry specialist who is making a handsome amount of money and I decided to go for it. Then after some time reading articles about how someone is earning six figures through affiliate marketing or reselling products makes me feel like,

“This is the right option for me”.

I was continuously changing my paths just to earn thousands of dollars fast. But I couldn't make it because I was following the wrong path.

The path that I don't want you to follow and suffer because of it.

Now, fortunately, I have gathered enough experience related to online success, that I would confidently tell you what lessons I learned in these 5 months as a newbie and how you can take these lessons as a building block for your online career.

So here you go!

Don’t Go For Everything, Follow Your Passion

Online earning is not a game of a few months, but it's a game for a lifetime.

So, whatever you choose, choose it wisely. It will predict your future success. I highly recommend following your passion because I have suffered a lot by not following mine.

The most valuable benefit of following your passion is that you won't get bored even if you are not seeing the desired results. Your passion doesn't let you give up and ultimately you win.

My passion is writing, now I am following it and I am much more happier than before.

Don’t Make Huge Goals, Start With The Little Ones

I failed because I was making really huge goals like $1000 or $10,000 a month as a newbie.

That too much right? and that's what I was doing.

Although it’s not bad to have huge goals but when you are starting it is better to start with the little ones, you will not get demotivated in this way.

Remember you have to be persistent to see the desired results but how can you be persistent when you are demotivated by your progress? So take the start with the tiny ones and enjoy achieving them.

Let’s say start with $10 or $50 a month. You can easily earn them and can gradually increase your monthly income goals.

Don’t be Impatient, Give It Some Time

This is very important. We are very impatient when it comes to online earning.

You cannot earn thousands of dollars in just a month without any experience. You have to give time, polish yourself, learn the game, and when you do so, you will surely see the results.

So, stick with your goals, be patient, and work.

Work to achieve what you always wanted, work to get out of there, work to be the better you. And don't forget to mix persistence with the work — the only way to change your status.

Final Thoughts

Here is the summary of the whole story in the form of a checklist. Make sure you are doing these things otherwise you may have to suffer (and I don't want this to happen).

1. First of all, know your passion and follow it to pursue your dream.
2. Make short goals and enjoy every little success you get.
3. Think realistically, work hard, and give yourself enough time to bloom.
