Is working for yourself easy? you#Best Education Page #Online Earning

for yourself easy so I think with any

luck we're live streaming on YouTube

over here and then on Facebook over

there my fingers are crossed we had some

technical difficulties the last time I

tried to actually like a multistream

here so we'll see how it goes hopefully

people will filter in if you're just

joining let me know if you could hear me

I see as hod joined up over on the

YouTube side - haaa

thanks awesome mark Wow people are

filling in sounds like you could hear me

we're going to talk about you know

whether or not working for yourself is

easy and you know probably just some Q

and a so David is over there - thanks

and I see we have some other people

coming in on the Facebook side so David

could hear me that's awesome um cool so

we'll get rolling in a second I see a

lot of people filtering in thanks mark

and I'm doing pretty well today I see no

no yawn thanks for joining up if you're

watching on the replay later on

particularly on Facebook you can still

let me know where you're at and

everything hey Jim what's up thanks for

joining up over there on the Facebook

side mil is on also alright cool so

again today the topic is is working for

yourself easy and off to make sure you

know it'll make it like some sort of a

complaining session or something like

that and I forgot to get more coffee I'm

going to run out here in the middle we

have any ones keeping score YouTube is

still winning

so YouTube looks like there's six or

seven people over on the YouTube side um

and on Facebook there's just two so it's

kind of interesting to see how this is

playing out and I may just continue on

with Facebook or sorry with YouTube just

in general but every now and then like

Facebook will kick up with the you know

four or five people so

um no yawn you have a question cool so

what it will do like I said we'll

probably just have some Q&A section in

here as well so you can ask questions

you could type them in I see David David

is is on both Facebook and YouTube so my

stats are all are off but thanks for

watching in both places so um basically

I'm going to talk about like working for

yourself a little bit and maybe a topic

for another day maybe next week um I was

like looking through some of my old

papers and I had like my first business

that I that I ran was like a lawn care

business and I think it was like I think

it was like 12 11 or 12 or so I think it

must have been 11 and like I have a

flier so I've passed out flyers at an

old computer like a Tandy 1000 I think

and we had like a dot matrix printer and

basically I like made some fire passed

them all around the neighborhood and you

know basically for four years probably

about nine years or so I was kind of

grass I mean actually made a lot of

money

cutting grass and like Bob bought my

cars and stuff with it and like bought

computers to go to college and blah blah

blah but anyway I was looking through

flyers and actually still have one of

the flyers and was able to you know show

people or I'll be able to show people

what that flyer looked like and I saw

someone on the YouTube side said there's

no sound can people so hear me on

YouTube

I'm just want to make sure that we're

good to go

funny thing what I had difficulties okay

milk can hear me so ok ID card was on

mute

alright cool so hopefully things will

run well today basically going to talk

about like working from

self a little bit now obviously there's

some really great aspects for working

for yourself a lot of times when I'm

doing these livestream special

especially in the last week or so I'll

say hey I'm going to balance because I

have to go to the gym so I like to work

out sort of like in the middle of the

afternoon when it's not too crowded in

there so that's one great aspect I could

totally control my day I can go to the

grocery store whenever I want and just

sort of like do things when like my

energy level is right for that activity

so I like working out in the afternoon

when it's not too crowded I like to go

to the grocery store when it's not too

crowded

I try not to you know be out during like

the rush hour even though here in

Bozeman there's not much rush hour but

there it's sometimes it can take you a

lot longer to get somewhere if you leave

at the wrong time so little things like

that are awesome right definitely like

that portion of it and you know I'm

looking out at the grass I can cut the

grass in the middle of the day or I

guess more often I'd probably do it in

the morning because it's not too hot

outside but there's a lot of little

aspects that are awesome I can you know

work earlier in the day so for example I

mean I'm kind of a morning person just

by nature and in general sometimes I

wake up at 6:00 and I can immediately

start working if I want to and you know

basically finish up my day like later in

the morning I don't have to you know

work into the evening or you know I

worked in an office I may have to go in

at you know 9:00 or 9:30 and like just

work longer hours later in the day maybe

when my activity level or my energy

level isn't suited for you know that

kind of work so that's like a huge

aspect of the advantages of working for

yourself and the other part is I mean

technically like if I wanted to I could

just do you know four days a week or

three days a week if I

if I wanted to but now we're starting to

get into the part of you know working

for yourself that's not so easy so I

have like full autonomy on like whatever

I want to work on for however long or as

much or as little as I want and that's

where the problem comes up because a lot

of the time I end up like working longer

than I intended to which is kind of

weird but if you'd like what you're

working on which I have the luxury of

like being able to work on stuff that I

enjoy like you will sometimes spend too

much time working on it and I'm sure you

know I've talked to some of the people

out there that are watching like if you

sit down and you start working on

something and you're enjoying it you'll

sort of get like focused in and obsessed

and you'll just keep working for hours

and hours and I've definitely done that

I've seen that through through the years

in stuff that I've worked on in you know

in college on certain projects where you

know I'll work for 12 hours straight for

multiple days of course then you need

like some decompression time like I

can't do it all the time but that

happens now particularly when I can work

on stuff that I want to work on and not

work on things that I don't want to work

on so all of a sudden I'm only working

on stuff that I enjoy working on which

is I mean that's a good thing right sure

beats working on stuff that you hate but

at the same time it's really hard to

take a break and then further right so I

could only work three days a week if I

wanted to but instead I work like six

days a week which makes no sense other

than the fact that I just mentioned that

I like some of the things that I'm

working with so so that's one aspect

where like I'm just I'm working more

than two more than I have to

and you know there there's plenty of

time to you know I guess spend working

if you like working it however that's

not really the point of what I'm trying

to do I've mentioned it some other blog

posts and videos probably where the goal

isn't really to

work all the time even though you know

we could it's to you know spend time

doing other stuff so after remember that

got to remind myself that in fact the

other day I think I mentioned it in one

of these calls are though I think one of

the the livestreams like cut off while I

was videoing it basically I sat down and

I I was working on some stuff and I

meant to go to the gym and I meant to go

take a stroll go for a little walk but I

was like really into whatever I was

working on so I totally missed the

opportunity and then he got crazy windy

outside and I couldn't even really like

go out there and walk because the storm

was blowing and also and anyway the

point is if you don't take breaks you'll

go crazy so so the other big part it all

I'll pause here and just mention se

Mahina and Rho heat from India so thanks

for joining up on the Facebook side if

you're watching the replay later as you

know we're talking about is working for

yourself easy and you can also let me

know where you're from in the replay

sorry in the comments so I can catch it

if you're watching the replay rather and

if you have questions you could ask

there too and I'll come back later

another there were some questions coming

in on the YouTube side so I'll have to

come back and take a quick look so I'll

just hit those before I get too far

behind

so no yawn says I'm going to index a new

Amazon affiliate site so you need my

help

well this sounds like a long question

but I'll play along here

oh and tejada says you sold a

compilation CD when you were like 8 to

14 because you had a computer and

internet that's awesome very cool Assad

says how many hours on average do I work

you know what I don't

have I'm not a hundred percent sure it's

probably like six to eight hours a day

for like four days a week and then maybe

like I'm trying to think there maybe

usually I take a shorter day and on the

fifth day or I do something else on one

of the days so if I had to guess it's

probably like 30 hours a week something

like that um I don't count I haven't

been reading as much in the last couple

weeks I've been working more on like

implementing stuff that I have read but

I was going to say there I guess like

for the first quarter of the year I was

probably reading like an hour or two per

day but since the last five figure niche

site course launch I've sort of tapered

down and as I mentioned I like I read a

book and then I thought hey I really

need to make sure I implement this stuff

in the book not just read as much as I

can so in fact you know after I read a

whole whole lot I read like 20 books in

the quarter or something like that I was

like maybe better if I just read like

one book and really implement it well

versus reading like as many books as I

can but nevertheless I probably will

pick that back up and we you know hour

hour and a half a day you know part

fiction part nonfiction just depending

on like what I'm into in the time of day

that I'm reading okay

all right leo is on YouTube and Facebook

awesome appreciate the support like that

everybody so the other big thing with

working for yourself is you have to

figure out what to work on so this is

probably like the biggest thing and I

think it's sort of transferable to you

know if you if you're like starting a

coffee shop like a brick-and-mortar

business if you are you know an online

you know digital entrepreneur if you're

just starting working on niche sites if

you're running

Blagh if you're trying to run a YouTube

channel there's like hundreds of things

that you could work on in each one if

like whatever it is like just think of

whenever you're working on whatever it

is there's hundreds of different things

you could be working on and it's really

difficult one of the luxuries of working

for a corporation is you have a boss

usually you'll have like five or six

bosses and then they'll have five or six

bosses and then there's some like big

faceless entity this the corporation and

basically someone tells you what to do

because someone told them what to do and

it sort of trickles down in a in a way

where even though people act like they

have responsibilities hi no one really

has responsibility I mean you could

really really screw up on something and

it just kind of goes away in most cases

I mean you you would have to have like a

whole lot of responsibility to actually

make it an actual mistake that has an

impact now sure there could be you know

some sort of small outage with some

users or something like that but in most

cases like you can recover from those

super easy right like you know I did

software stuff so they would roll out

some software updates and it may

actually impact users but only if they

were trying to like check their billing

status at like 4:00 in the morning

because you could you know you always

have contingency plans to like roll back

so the point is the luxury of working

for a corporation is that you don't

really have to figure out what you're

working on someone tells you what to

work on and you really don't have a huge

amount of responsibility for the result

because like there's eight other bosses

and then another layer of ownership so

as the worker bees like most of us

probably are you don't have to worry

about too much

however if you're working for yourself

you have to figure out what you're going

to work on of the you know 150 things

that you could be working on it's really

hard to figure out the most important

ones and even if you can narrow it down

to like the top 5% of those things

that's still like five to seven things

you have to figure out what's the most

important thing to work on and then what

to focus on and then how to balance that

with some of the other activities that

you're doing like you know like I said

the leisure activities that I'm able to

take advantage of and go work out at the

gym in the middle of the day well that's

cool and everything but I also have to

figure out like what activities do I

really need to get done this week so

that for example I could launch my

course in six weeks from now right so I

have to figure out how to prioritize

that and how to shape my day my week and

then the month plus you know as like a

business grows your hat you're gonna

have like more one there's like more

failure points which you know isn't

necessarily like a bad thing but it's

another thing you have to think about so

there's more failure points because

usually there's more interfaces so I

think I saw a question which I'll come

back to on the YouTube side you know

let's say I'm hiring some bas like

literally this week I've hired like

eight writers so I've hired eight

writers and each of those writers I've

probably said like two to five messages

or so and when you multiply that out

that's a lot of conversations going on

it's very distracting so I kind of have

to you know block up I need to block off

my time and like this week for example

in the morning I've worked on like video

editing of which I actually shot a video

of me video editing so you can see how I

use ScreenFlow so I'll publish I'll

publish that like in a week or two over

on the YouTube side but I did video

editing

that for me personally it takes like a

chunk of time where I need to edit a

full video all at once and Tet for me to

edit like it was about ten minutes of

raw video it took me roughly like an

hour and a half to go through it I'm

getting up by the way I'm getting a lot

faster at it

part of it is improving the delivery and

shooting better raw video so the editing

is faster but I'm also just getting

better using ScreenFlow the tool that I

use to shoot the or to edit the videos

so I got that done this morning and then

I didn't even look at all the pork

messages that I have or any

correspondence with any VA s because

that's like ping pong that's going back

and forth if I send five messages

I'll get six messages back you know

little things right so I hired some VA s

for some trial jobs and you know let's

say I I started I started the gig on

like or I hired them on Wednesday today

is Friday and they finished it early

right the due date isn't until Friday so

I sort of like gave them a couple days

to complete the work and then I in my

head I'm like okay it's not due till

Friday I'm not even going to look or

consider it until Friday

however these folks are like so excited

to work and to work with me bill they

finish the work on Wednesday afternoon

they sent it in they sent me an email

they sent me a message both right they

sent me two things and said hey I

submitted the work let me know what you

think and I'm like well damn I'm I don't

want to look at it now I want to look at

it on Friday that's why I set the due

date in a Friday so I have a choice at

that like here's one of the decision

points right I could write if I'm

thinking how I need to maximize the

throughput of like working with DA's I

could go over look at the message review

the article they submitted give them

feedback and go through the whole song

and dance which like I said that could

take five to six messages depending on

like

what's happening so I made give them

feedback they'll respond back I'll look

at it again

they'll submit it and then I have to you

know close out the job so at least five

messages maybe more or I can ignore it

until I'm ready to go look at it which I

won't look at it until later on this

afternoon because for me I know that

later in the afternoon I can look at

those messages I don't have to be as

focused to look at a message it's just

and all I need to do is read it and then

come back to it with a response right if

I'm editing video I need like an hour to

two hours to go and like sequentially

like listen to edit and chop down the

video so anyway to summarize the whole

thing there's really great aspects of

working for yourself I get to make my

own hours I could work as much or as

little as I want I could travel I can go

on road trips whatever I could you know

start working noon each day if I wanted

to turns out since you can choose I'm

you can choose what you're working on I

tend to work on stuff that I enjoy

working on the downside of course is you

can work as much as you want so if you

if you're choosing things that you'd

like to work on you may if you don't set

boundaries you may end up working more

than you really intended and that's not

always a good thing right because we're

not like my goal is not to work a whole

bunch my goal is to have free time and

be able to do what I want during the day

so as long as I balance it you know some

days I'll work longer some days I'll

work shorter but as long as I sort of

balance the two I usually come out

alright so again on Facebook if you have

questions and you're watching the replay

feel free to type them in I'll come back

later

thanks again David Mahina Rho Heat leo

for watching over there especially the

double Watchers and then I see some

questions and comments coming over here

so and then after talking through some

stuff as hod how many hours do it work

average I would say if I just threw out

a number I would say on average maybe

like seven hours a day five days a week

how many PAS do I have it's totally like

cyclical I don't have vias working for

me all the time

but currently you caught me on a big

week right so I'm trying to find I'm

building up a Content team right now

like sort of spawning up a team that's

going to do a whole bunch of writing for

two different sites so right now this

week there's probably like 10 or 12

people working with me um and yeah so

there's a lot right now but over the

last like six weeks six weeks it was

probably like two V A's on average

working with me I've actually been

having some people help me on YouTube

descriptions and for you know just like

helping me out managing some of the like

what I consider admin tasks typically

like for articles I'm paying like

fourteen bucks for an article about yeah

roughly a thousand words for writing as

far as hourly rates I usually pay about

ten to twelve dollars an hour um and

Ahana mentions about people like working

for themselves pushing forward

yeah totally agree with that

let's see and then Tana also asked do I

have V A's for a niche type project yeah

a little bit and that's a new thing that

I'm adding but it's really around like

like I said YouTube videos in writing

the descriptions so it's not like

transcripts per se but it's more like

going through the videos like this video

here someone will come back and

summarize it in like three to five

hundred words or so and I'm sort of

testing that out too actually because I

know you know from an SEO standpoint for

my niche sites I know that

important to actually have like some

word count so I don't know as much on

the YouTube side I also know that you

know having keyword rich descriptions is

normally a good thing so I'm hoping that

it is also a good thing for YouTube

interesting thing though YouTube like

they can detect what you're saying

so you'll notice I've said is working

for yourself easy

multiple times so is working for

yourself easy and if you go and look at

like YouTube and I'm not sure if it's

available only on your own channel or if

you could do this for like videos that

you're just watching but if you're on

the desktop version you may be able to

look at like the closed caption and like

as close as I mean it does a pretty good

job and I mean if you go to like most

all of our smartphones and other devices

like that they can that voice

recognition so anyway I think some of

the SEO is around what we say so that's

why I've said is working for yourself

easy like five or six times so and then

the other part too Honda the question

that you ask do I find working do you

find work do you find yourself thinking

about work and your free time or do you

easily clock out um you know it's like

50/50 like if if it's something that I'm

excited about I'll usually think about

it a lot I think yesterday I probably

mentioned I'm like you YouTube's been

good right that's why I'm doing these

live streams and stuff there's a whole

other set of people that like use

YouTube all the time and I actually I

found myself using YouTube all the time

over reading blog posts because I was at

specifically I was at the gym where now

they have really good Wi-Fi so I can

you know stream YouTube videos while I'm

like on the treadmill or you know on a

elliptical machine or whatever so I

could like watch and consume information

it could be entertaining

it could be something I want to learn

and I usually do a combination of the

two but I failed myself watching youtube

videos more than I was listening to

podcast more than I'm reading blogs I

don't be that many blogs right now and

you know basically if it's something I'm

excited about I will think about it

um like when I'm not working but it's

usually something that I'm like I said I

could choose what I'm working on someone

I like definitely wait it towards things

that I enjoy working on so when I

actually had a job I think I was able to

clock out most of the time and just sort

of like focus on what I wanted to but it

always it always varied depending on

like how stressed out I was alrighty

let's see I see a couple questions on

the Facebook side row he'd asked how do

you limit yourself working on things

that you absolutely love working on um I

think I usually have some sort of like

result or deliverable in mind so for

example um I'm trying to think of

something that I really like for example

I'm going through um I you know I don't

love keyword research but once I start

doing it it's pretty you know it's great

to get those results so right now

because I'm spawning up a content team I

need to have a lot of keywords so I'm

going through keyword research right now

low heat and basically like I'm going to

find probably like a hundred keywords

that meet the criteria that I need them

to meet and then that'll be enough for

now and then I'll just stop luckily

there's enough things that I like

working on bit excuse me there's enough

things that I like working on

once I hit a certain amount of stuff

like 100 key words whatever deliverable

I've identified ahead of time I'll know

that I meet not only do I need to move

on but I can move on to something else

that I enjoy so it's not so bad to have

to work in those kind of constraints and

then your your comment for example I end

up spending 12 to 14 hours on some odd

days even though it's not necessary so

and I usually couple those with days

where I don't work as much so I think

like I mentioned a couple days ago I

realized I was sitting at my desk for

like eight eight hours or something I

didn't take as many breaks as I wanted

to take and I ended up sort of stressed

out by the end of the day I did get like

a lot done I got so much done and it

kind of surprised me the next day which

was yesterday I went to the post office

to like renew my passport so that burned

an hour there I went on a couple longer

walks earlier in the day

so I walked to probably I went on like a

two two-mile walk in the morning and

then went to the gym for like two hours

also so when I put the two days together

on average it was probably like seven

hours but in one day I probably worked

like twelve and then yesterday I

probably worked like four or something

like that so I kind of pair pair days

together world

I'll go hard and then take it easy or if

I've taken it easy for a few days

that'll work harder which I mean I could

tell you that um this week I worked

pretty hard and I worked longer days in

general because the week before I only

worked like maybe a day and a half or

two days because it was Memorial Day so

Monday was off and then my

brother-in-law came in town on Friday so

I was her sorry on Thursday afternoon so

I stopped worked early on Thursday I

took all of Friday off and then sprinkle

in like me going to the gym a few times

and you know doing some other stuff

cleaning at the house for a house guest

I only worked for a couple days so this

week I worked harder because I had you

know last week was pretty easy with a

long weekend okay this vid this has been

a long a long session today tech I guess

technically everything worked out so

that's good I think should be able to do

more of these next week I'm still

undecided on if YouTube or Facebook is

better so today the technology worked

with me now that nothing crashed so

we'll give it a shot and I think

probably I may switch up the times but

David says YouTube all the way yeah I

think YouTube may be a little bit easier

especially if Facebook is going to be

like sort of interfering with like what

is shown on the feed but you know what

we will only find out if we keep doing

this like every day because I think like

it gains momentum and stuff like that

I'm not sure so we'll see how it goes

all right cool if you have topics you

want to hear about you can leave me a

comment or you know well actually I

guess their comments on both sides so

leave me a comment if you have topics

you want to cover I did note from

yesterday we had like a full-on webinar

there was a be testing on Google

Analytics that Leo suggested and someone

also suggested interlinking I can't

remember who that was but someone said

be cool to see like the right way and

the wrong way to enter link niche sites

or just web sites in general so I think

that actually could be an interesting

one as well so we'll end it up everybody

have OVAs tonic everybody have a great

weekend and we'll catch up with you next

time Thanks

you
