I bet you run a blog of some sort. I mean, here you are either posting or reading posts on a social media site in the context of a new economy. You're in touch with whats going on online. You know that you can make a living online from anywhere in the world. You've seen that pompous "I'm here in my garage" guy ad about living the high life from online riches and know that it's not like that, but it can be done. So what's stopping you from making a passive income online?

For most people, it's fear. It's the fear that you will not be able to produce enough. It's the fear that it will require more energy, will power and intelligence than you possess. It's also the fear that not only others, but you yourself will think less of you when you inevitably fail.

You will fail.

It's inevitable that you will fail if you want to succeed because failure is an important part and a necessary milestone in achieving anything worthwhile. Anyone who disagrees with that has simply never set the bar high enough. A muscle needs to rip itself to heal bigger and stronger and so does the human experience. You need to suffer emotional loss to strengthen logical connections of learning and failure is the perfect way because sometimes you surprise yourself and get rewarded. Then you can build on every success with a new challenge while avoiding past failures all the while refining a method and achieving greater success. Sungha Jung didn't learn how to crush overnight so don't expect fall ass backwards into "Internet Money" even though it can happen.

Start small and simply aim for progress

You blog right? No? You're on Facebook or something? Not even? Of course you're part of some sort of online community, at least? You're on Steemit where you get paid for the popularity of your article. Wouldn't it make sense to do content marketing here? You could even sell the content marketing and pocket the popularity dollars from Steemit. That's a pretty simple way to make a small some of money online. I just found you a micro racket online, but wait....

You need someone to buy the article.

What is this type of internet content anyways? I'm talking about Steemit. Is it a guest post or is it a social post because you have an account in a community? You need to know what you're selling. Either way, someone will buy it from you if you backlink their site and if your account has many followers they will pay you more.

I gotta finish you're new micro racket here. You need someone to buy your social post on Steemit where you pocket the STEEM and they pay for the article. Here it is: You list your Social post on AvatarBazaar for someone to buy (not only do they run social media account auctions to buy and sell accounts but you can also list your site to sell guest posts and social posts) then you have the article written at Iwriter (they have a huge pool of writers) and post it here while building a following and pocketing the STEEM. You can then sell the STEEM at Poliniex or any other token marketplace.

All this or you can write the articles yourself and pocket the whole sum. It's up to you. In any case, this is one way you can make money online. Steemit is new so at the moment, there aren't many using it as part of a webmarketing strategy so to sell that service would make you an early entrant to what will be an entirely new web paradigm. In other words, it's a good opportunity. So what's stopping you?

You know your gonna fail which is probably going to hurt so why don't you start small. One operation. Have people pay you for something you are already doing. Have them pay you for the content you produce, whether here or on your own website.
