I wouldn't say I am making enough money right now, not consistently. But from time to time. And it becomes more and more often so I am into...wait for it, it's the most important part...

Not giving up and not losing momentum!

Whatever niche you try. Of course, it may just not be yours, I mean you might not like it. But if you do, keep on pushing. That's my philosophy. Which does not mean I am 100% capable of living up to it. But the percentage increases.

I am trying stock, now, too. A bit over two months and not much success but any success is a lesson, too. Failure is generally a lesson but not in this case - I don't learn enough from failing in stock. And time/effort return is amazingly low at the moment. But that has been true for everything I tried so far. It is hard to start. No momentum built yet.

Yeah, client work is absolutely important, it pays off the most in short-terms and since we need to pay bills short-term... One has to do it while experimenting with other things.
