The Thing About Rules

I went from pier guard to pro blogger and island hopper by following some rules and breaking other rules. According to many people, I acted in complete irresponsible fashion during my journey. People taught me to pay bills and put a roof over my head. Do what you need to do by working a job […]

How to Boost Your Income

Woohoo. I spied one of my online income streams a few moments ago. Overnight, the income for the month doubled. I do not get attached to income stats but feel grateful for making money. As long as I live a worldly life, money is convenient. I wanted to share some recent realizations I made for […]

Book of the Month: Push Your Way to Purpose: How to Get from Where You Are to Where You’re Meant to Be

Learn on the Fly

10 years ago I almost panicked and demanded a refund for my domain and hosting. I was an unemployed pier guard with dreams. Someone told me to blog if I wanted to make money online. So I did. But 2 days into my online career, I panicked. How could I ever blog full time? I […]

A Letter to My Kids: Money Isn’t Everything

You have seen mom and I talk about money many times, and I’ve told you that we aren’t going to do or get certain things because they cost too much. You’ve watched me work hard, and get stressed out at times over little slips of green paper. You’ve heard me talk about the importance of […]

What Aspect of Success Mystifies Most People?

Wow Ryan….*of course* it’s easy for you to write and self-publish 100 plus eBooks! You surround yourself with inspiration. I could write 1000 eBooks if I lived in Bali for 6 months at a time. I get that email, sometimes. Other people believe I succeeded because I live a lucky life, void of problems. Nope. […]

Survey of Six Figure Earners Shows Why Focus Is Important

I’ve looked at a lot of resumes over the years, and for many people it would be easier to name what they haven’t done than what they have done. Know where those resumes end up when they cross my desk? In the circular file. Including too many positions on your resume is one of the […]

If You Hate Your Job, Change

It’s sad sometimes to hear people complaining about their job all the time. Monday rolls around, and they are grumbling about going to work. Friday rolls around, and it’s a party.
