"The rules are simple. Take your work, but never yourself, seriously. Pour in the love and whatever skill you have, and it will come out." – Chuck Jones.
 

Many people dream of success.

Far fewer succeed.

Why is that?

Success is a noun and is defined as "The achievement of something desired, planned, or attempted".

 

Succeed is a verb and is defined as "Having achieved something".

 

This means that the successful person has done something. 

They've taken action towards an end goal.

 

You have to love – or at least respect – the work that you do to deliver your products and services to your customers.

You have to have skill and experience to make the "quality" and "value" requirements real.

But you only acquire that required skill and experience by trying to deliver on them before you are technically qualified to produce.

It is impossible to acquire the experienced-based knowledge you need without doing your best without it and learning as you go.
 

You do your best to be remarkable.
 

And you do your best to deliver it to extraordinary people who get it.

Some of those people will help you get better through feedback and collaboration.

And of course, you improve simply through ongoing practice and studying to overcome the obstacles that come from doing the work.

Work things that way, and I guarantee that fulfilment will be yours.

Now, I can't guarantee it will make you rich.
 

But working hard to be excellent at something you love to do, for the benefit of an audience that enjoys it – there is no better way to make a living.

Or at least pay a few bills doing something you like rather than doing something you're only doing to pay your bills.

Are your skills paying the bills?

If not, what can you do today to move you forward?

P.S.  Many times you'll be told to "do what you love, and you'll never work a day in your life".

This advice is correct, but it also sets some people on the path to poverty.

Not everything you love to do will earn you enough money to pay bills and live comfortably.
 

That's the reason people go to work at a job they hate, they get paid and can live better than the starving artist in the garret who is doing what they love, and not working a day of their short lives.

OK, that's probably a slight exaggeration, but you get what I mean.
 

Fortunately, the Internet has changed all that for those who have learned.
 

Several websites allow creators to be creative and have fans who pay them a small stipend to free them up for creation.

They still have to market themselves to find the fans, so that doesn't always work.
 

There is a more straightforward way to monetise your work.

Start with a website that showcases your work.

Add affiliate products that are relevant to the type of work you do.

Build a YouTube channel which also showcases your work and link it to your website.

The resulting traffic, slow at first, will gather fans to you.

They'll buy from the affiliate products, and you can offer them a membership for unique products or training related to your work.
 

You are still doing what you love to do and are sharing it with people who also love what you do.

These people will pay you to feel that they are part of the "inner circle".
 

The link below will show you how to develop the affiliate skills you need to pull this off, and it's not a hard as you might think.
 

You are stronger than you think.

You are smarter than you think.

You are more persistent than you think.
