I read an interesting article onhow to make more money today. I had been thinking about the ways to increase my own marketability and this brought up a few ideas on what I need to do.
My biggest challenge is a lack of marketable skills. I don’t have the technical skills, experience, or education to be employed in a field I prefer. I am taking college courses to finish my degree while also learning programming, but my progress is slow going. Once I have sufficient resume fodder, I’m confident that I’ll be able to network and interview well to increase my primary income source.
Once that’s done, I’d like to move onto increasing passive income. Blogging and developing income from it would be one route. Having the hard skills should make it easier to develop the blog from the back end and enable me to speak with authority on a broader range of issues.
Just like anything in life, a series of incremental steps with a few setbacks are likely to be the path I must travel. Let’s see how it goes.
