Business

I started writing these instructions for several people already, so why not write it down for everyone to read? Here it goes: how to earn and grow an additional stream of monthly recurring revenue if you have an existing audience/fans, or a pool of clients/customers, by receiving money from them via Patreon.com.

Thinking about that led me to the subject of mastermind groups. »

An insight came to me while I was reading the book A Guide to the Good Life: The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy. (So much revelation in the first few pages. Go and buy it. You’ll thank me later.) Yesterday I decided I would look at the new business I’m venturing into as an adventure. Adventure-centered attitude is the best antidote to FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt).
