What are your favorite side-hustle ideas?

I guess you can call me boring. That’s fine. I don’t care. It’s hard to give up on something that you have been dreaming about for over ten years.

My only two side hustles I like to do is writing fiction through books and teaching. Even though I am currently doing one, I have yet to do the other.

My plan was for me to become a creative writing professor at a university. It was a nice way to earn money to teach what I love and write at the same time. I am still doing that in a way (I am an ESL teacher right now) but I think I have what it takes to run an online course on creative writing.

So, that will be my next project. I want to teach an online course to help writers write in a new way. This is the goal for me in 2027.

Writing books and teaching writing equals my two favorite side hustles. What are yours?

Which relationship has taught you the most about yourself?

View all responses

The relationships that taught me the most about myself were the toxic ones. The ones where they would tear you down just to make themselves feel better or even the ones who gaslight you into telling you that they  love you when deep down inside they hate your guts. 

Those toxic relationships taught me that I am not allowed to save people from their own messy childhoods. I am allowed to love myself more than I love anyone else. I am allowed to be whoever I want to be without someone holding me back. I don’t have to take abuse from anyone, Narcisstic or otherwise. I have learned to grow as a person and will be able to tolerate what I will and will not do in a relationship. 

That’s it. That’s all.

If you could start a new business right now, what would it be?

View all responses

If you were to ask me about starting a new business, I would easily tell you that I don’t want to start a new business. I would tell you that I want to be a full-time writer, staying at home and constantly promoting and marketing my work. 

It’s something I have always wanted to do ever since I enrolled in College. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Fiction writing. I have a master’s degree in creative writing. I live and breathe writing. Despite me having a Master’s degree in another field, I have always wanted to be a writer. 

Now I am. 

The problem? Making the money to do so. I have been trying for years to make it work with traditional publishing but it didn’t work out the way I wanted to. I am still trying with doing it on my own. In the meantime, I will have to work to take care of the bills until that day comes. 

Oh well, back to work I go.

What are your best healthy eating habits?

View all responses

My best healthy eating habits are:

1. Eat lots of fruit and vegetables. There have been several occasions where I would be able to purchase or even make a healthy salad that includes shrimp, chicken, or even tuna. Having those vegetables in your system helps when it comes to me having all sorts of problems. 
2. Drink water. This is a habit that I am slowly trying to do on a daily basis. I have noticed that drinking water has cleared up my skin as well. 
3. If you are going to eat something unhealthy, try to do a balancing act. If you know you have had a hamburger in the morning, maybe try having a salad or some fruit if you are hungry at night (just be careful if you have gastric issues thought, this might be a problem for you). 
4. I don’t drink or smoke at all. I have seen other people do this and I saw the effects it had on them both on a short term and a long term scale. I would never judge anyone else for doing things but for me personally, I cared about my health and my body too much for it to be destroyed down the road. 
5. Don’t drink or eat too much sugar. I will admit that I am guilty of this myself and I know that I really need to slow down when it comes to this issue. At one point, I was doing well when it came to eating or drinking too much sugar but I will admit that this is something I need to work on in the future (nobody’s perfect right?”). 

That’s it for now.

What are some life hacks that you practice?

Here are some of the life hacks I follow:

1. Get up early in the morning and do what you love for ten to twenty minutes before work.
2. Plan to go on vacation every once in a while. It doesn’t have to be an international trip (bonus points if you do). Example: I wanted to do something different when I turned forty so I decided to become a ESL teacher halfway around the world.
3. Go after your dreams no matter what. You will constantly run into people every step of the way who are going to want you to fail. Ignore them and keep going.

That’s it. That’s all
