I generally have a lot of things going on at any given time. I can be my own worst enemy in this area, but I also think that it has a lot to do with my success. I just try a lot of different things, and if they don’t work out then I try something else. I want to have as many income streams as I can realistically manage. I will try and chronicle some of these endeavors in more detail on my blog.
I have my Real Estate license as well as my license to sell Life Insurance, but right now, I have not been spending much time on these activities since I just don’t have enough time to do anything with them.
I am a landlord, but managing my property doesn’t take up much of my time. Every once in a while I’ll have to evict someone or someone will move out and I’ll need to do some minor renovations, but I have been enjoying it so far.
I had been looking into purchasing a laundromat, but after looking at several of them in the area, I decided that the profit margin that I had anticipated was not there. I put that on hold. Right now I am in the process of buying several vending businesses in my local area. My plan is to combine them into one and continue to run the business part time. I am sure that I will be writing about this on my blog once I get some experience and have something to say about it.
Public speaking as been an interest of mine as of late. I am a member of the Achievers Club of Toastmasters International. I have been getting experience as a speaker and giving inspirational speeches both in Toastmasters and outside of Toastmasters. People have asked me if I plan to speak professionally. I hadn’t given it much thought, but anything’s possible! Check out my speaking page for recordings of speeches I have given and let me know what you think.
My blog takes up a bit of my time also. I have been working on becoming a better writer and I have been getting a lot of practice! My plans for my blog are ambitious. I am working on creating a large content base of articles that will help me establish my credibility on the topics that I choose to write about. I have been working on promoting it also, and getting more subscribers. It’s working! I have been seeing steady growth since I started my blog project back in December of 2007.
