Balancing a full-time job and a side hustle can feel like juggling flaming torches. I worked in a demanding corporate leadership role when I started my side hustle. The days were long, and the responsibilities were too many to count. Yet, the desire to create something of my own, something that reflected my passion and vision, was too strong to ignore.
It wasn’t easy, but with careful planning and relentless dedication, I turned my side hustle into a thriving business. If I can do it, so can you. Here’s how I did it:
- Identify Your Passion: My side hustle was born from my passion for helping women achieve financial freedom. When you love what you do, it hardly feels like work.
- Set Clear Goals: I set clear, achievable goals for my side hustle, whether it was earning a specific amount each month or reaching a certain number of clients; having goals kept me focused.
- Create a Schedule: I carved out specific times during the week to work on my side hustle. Consistency was key to making steady progress.
- Leverage Your Skills: I have and continue to use the skills I honed in my corporate career to enhance my side hustle. This not only saves me time but also ensures quality.
- Stay Organized: Using planners and project management tools helped me stay on top of my tasks and deadlines.
