The first $ online changes everything
Just hang in there
The most beautiful thing in life is working on something meaningful every day.
The first few months of this year, I didn’t have that.
I felt burnt out.
I was stressed 24/7.
Everything felt hopeless.
I even took multiple breaks but it didn’t get better.
At that point, I’d been starting and crashlanding businesses for 9 months straight.
In 9 months I’d made 150€ in total.
All while I’d lost over $3k on those businesses.
You can see why I started doubting myself.
And that doubt led to pressure.
“I need to make money ASAP!”
“I’ll do everything just to get paid right now!”
“If I don’t sign my first client next week, I’m a failure!”
Not only were these mindsets totally useless…
They were destructive.
I started playing short-term games.
I lost sight of my grand vision.
And they made me fucking miserable.
Fast forward to now.
I’m sitting here in my office, sipping on my coffee, writing this newsletter article, and I can genuinely say:
I love my work.
I just fucking do!
What’s changed?
Well, part of the reason is the onset of spring and the re-awakening of life (I hate wintertime).
But despite that, the only thing that’s really changed is that I’ve made my first real money.
Turns out that money CAN buy peace.
Knowing that all your effort isn’t wasted might just be the best feeling out there.
The best part?
You don’t need much.
Just the first $1,000 I’ve generated, has made ALL the difference.
And I agree: We shouldn’t make our peace & happiness dependent on an outcome.
But just a little money supplementing your income really can change how you approach business.
You go from operating from a place of deficiency to doing things because you enjoy them.
Not only will you be happier, but the quality of your work will skyrocket as well.
It’s a positive feedback loop.
The lesson you can take away from today’s article is this:
Do what needs to be done to operate from a place of love instead of deficiency.
That might just mean a little mindset shift.
Or it might mean finally making that first money online.
It depends on your situation.
Talk soon,

P.S. Next month I’ll teach 5 ambitious creators how to sign their first $1,000+ client in the next 60 days.
I’ll do this through my Path to Profit Mastermind Program.
(Which I’ve used to land D his first client within 9 days of working together.)
1 spot is already reserved.

Reply with “early bird” and I’ll send you the full details.
