What to focus on? Greedy platforms versus the less greedy…

I have done some research and some thinking. I have been very close to another burnout. Working a full-time job and then working on weekends on my side-hassle was a bit too much as I had only a couple of hours of rest. And that was not enough to recover. Something had to change toContinue reading “What to focus on? Greedy platforms versus the less greedy…”

Keeping everything in one spot

I really like the saying: Don’t keep your all eggs in one basket. It is on my mind, especially now when I see so many changes around me and in the POD world. This is something I am more aware of now than a few years ago – and making changes based on it. IContinue reading “Keeping everything in one spot”

My strange strategy paid off

This is going to be very brief. Something surprising happened to me on Pinterest.

Do I need this first step? Do I really need to find my “Why”? The answer often seem obvious, right? Well, the most obvious thing seems to be “the money”. Yes, it’s great having some extra income but why would I be giving up my free time to do something I don’t even know ifContinue reading “First step for “one person business””

Blogging in stages

I am not an SEO expert or seasoned content creator but after working for several years in education, I am fairly good in scheduling, prioritising and streamlining. This is how I approach my posts and it may work for you as well. I create a very short post just to test the water. Usually itContinue reading “Blogging in stages”

Why I procrastinate…

If you have been reading my blog for a while, you know by now that I love making lists. Yes, I like to be super organised. But there is also another reason for this. I am constantly late! I have trouble to keep up with the deadlines, tasks and chores! And I have trouble withContinue reading “Why I procrastinate…”
