In the second quarter of the year, it's safe to say that I have finally acquired my first four digits. Do you think that it is easy peasy? No, it's not! Do you think that I am happy that I am busy? Yes, of course! It isn't easy to get as it's been almost two years since my last milestone. Yet, I'm so happy since the most important thing is that I earned it. It paid for my bag, tour, allowance, and other necessities that helped me to solve my financial problems.
What are my side hustles?
So far, I have three side hustles, and I don't have any plans to add. I only want to focus on those three. My first side hustle was through blogging. It allows me to earn thousands or hundreds of Philippine pesos monthly. I got very inactive due to a shift in priorities, but I won't mind since it can wait. My second side hustle is through marketing products as a TikTok affiliate. As a TikTok affiliate, I got my first four-digit earnings in a month this year. My progress in TikTok is not progressive, which led me to focus on another opportunity from my virtual friend. She works as a freelancer on Upwork and outsourced some content creation-related tasks to me.
Why did I get busier?
Due to my outstanding performance, I am the only one she retained from her five outsources. I am finally earning from her P5,000.00 - P7,000 monthly, but the downside is that it is an enormous responsibility. I need to generate up to 40 articles bi-weekly from her and check their quality. I mostly spend an hour per article and generate five articles using AI every Thursday to Sunday. I only write occasionally during class periods. I negotiated with her a while ago that I might skip from Monday to Wednesday if there was a sudden conflict.
I focused solely on her earning opportunity since it is the most stable. I will get paid for my work, although there's an issue with revisions and other conflicts. Now that I have reached this milestone, I want to push myself to the limit. I aim to earn five digits monthly (P10,000 or an estimated $170) because why not?
Am I a full-time student?
If you haven't read my previous article, I mentioned that I have various responsibilities. I am an academic achiever, a leader in our thesis, and part of an organization as a Communication officer. If there's a title for being the most industrious student this year, I will submit myself as a nominee. I can still write blogs like this, get time to publish TikTok affiliate videos, and submit no-to-less revisions from my friend.
Why I Like To Return to Blogging?
One of the reasons why I chose to focus on earning money is due to my insecurities. That's the only way where I can vent my feelings. That's also my way of starting to work like a normal person again. I saw a lot of people on my social media account who are hell attractive as fuck. I want to delete my social media accounts, but I can't do that yet. My goal is to submerge my focus into returning to blogging. I want to focus on my creative side again, which I have lost before.
My plan to return to making affiliate videos on TikTok was delayed because of schedule conflicts. But right now, I don't have any excuses since it was finally our vacation. One of my goals is to also return to blogging and publish weekly or monthly. You might see me weekly or monthly publishing.
