Ways to Make Money

I used to have a blog that was specifically about making money tips, years ago.  But, there are others out there to help you do that.  And, I don’t want to suggest that making money should be a primary goal.  I’m at a point in my life where I will accept less money for more freedom and doing things I enjoy.  But, I have collected a few over the years that I use from time to time, and I wanted to suggest them to friends and more to make money on the side, as well.

Uber/Ubereats/DoorDash/Lyft - any of these will work if you like to drive.  Ubereats is my primary use of time, as I like it and makes the most of my options… I choose not to do Uber passengers like I used to.. tho that does make more.  You apply via the driver app and are an independent contractor, setting your own hours… you can do this just for a trip a day, if you want, or less.

Usertesting- you click on options that are there to see if you qualify.  If you do, you can make 10 dollars for 15 minutes of speaking aloud as you view a page or do a task. https://www.usertesting.com/

Amazon Mturk/ Prolific- answer questions or do small tasks for money.. Amazon has more tasks, but you need to understand how to download and use their extension and prolific pays more. https://www.prolific.com/ Mturk 

Swagbucks - also can warn for answering questions, but harder to qualify.  But, you can also earn for buying things, entering contests, viewing clips, and more. https://www.swagbucks.com/

Appen - Australian company that works with major us social media companies.. you apply for projects, and if you qualify can earn 10 dollars an hour doing tasks.. but pays a month after work and can end suddenly. https://connect.appen.com/qrp/v2/services/onboarding/sign-up

Ibotta - money for buying specific groceries and such https://home.ibotta.com/

So, that’s just a few.  Hope it helps.

Follow Your Bliss

I think it was a couple years ago that I first discovered Joseph Campbell.  I had heard the phrase "follow your bliss" but hadn't given it much thought til that moment.  It just sounded like a holiday card that seemed too impractical.  But, upon digging into it and applying it to my life, it became one log in the fire upon which my self esteem and direction was formed. " Follow your bliss. If you do follow your bliss, you put yourself on a kind of track that has been there all the while waiting for you, and the life you ought to be living is the one you are living. When you can see that, you begin to meet people who are in the field of your bliss, and they open the doors to you. I say, follow your bliss and don't be afraid, and doors will open where you didn't know they were going to be. If you follow your bliss, doors will open for you that wouldn't have opened for anyone else " So many people walk around saying to others and themselves that they do...

Reframe Happiness

When you “reframe” something, it doesn’t always mean to be delusional about it… though some move in that direction.  They don’t accept reality, so they change their perception of reality to fit their circumstances.  Indeed, I got into several past bad social connections with people because I reframed their lack of effort, empathy, or romantic actions to be just that it was underneath but just not seen.  But.. to quote the Bible (not as a holy source but collection of passed down maxims on life), faith without works is dead.  What it means is if you can’t see its effects in some way, it’s not there.  That’s not just true of faith but is a life application principle for judging what is or is not, as well.  Even Jesus said to judge a plant by its presence of fruit… love, joy, peace, patience, etc.. or not.   But, what if the FRUIT and TRUTH suggests a path is not functioning to bring you happiness?  Then, you might want to reframe what you NEED to be...
