Passive income.

Everyone is doing it or selling you a course on how you can do it yourself.

You could make a Youtube channel, start a Shopify store, invest in the right stocks, or become an influencer.

You could write an e-book, make a course, or create a blog.

You could hack your house, your car, or garage space.

And then you can start making money easily right?

That’s all there is to it.

After all, there are so many people out there claiming to make millions of dollars, and guess what.

You’re not one of them.

You’re still working your 9–5, like a chump.

You must not be getting it.

And everyone else is but you.

At least, that’s how it feels.

You spend 3 minutes on Youtube watching a finance video and you will automatically be blasted by some finance guru selling you another new passive income stream.

They must be telling the truth.

They have a Lambo in their video or their own a jet.

They must know the secret.

Maybe they are just smarter than you.

That must be it.

Besides, what’s the point of starting?

If everyone else has already built their content moats, Etsy stores, and Podcasts, then what is the point.

It will be impossible for you to break in now.

But that’s where you’re wrong.

Creating Passive Income Always Starts With A Mindset Change

When you watch those get rich quick ads on Youtube.

They strike an emotional cord.

They like to attack your 9–5.

Or prod that inner desire to feel like we are special.
