How to identify your skills (& start a side hustle with them)


Hey Reader,

Do you want to start a side hustle but are unsure what skills you even have?

This is a common problem I often hear from clients. They know they want to start something but are not sure what they "can" do because they think they have no skills.

I've had this same issue before too. I wanted a way to make extra money but didn't know what skills of mine were the best to do that with.

I knew I liked web development and design a lot - and it helped that I used those same skills in my day job - so I eventually saw myself looking at web development gigs available online.

When I took on my first small project, I realized the true value of those skills. They weren't there just for me to use in a day job. I can branch out with them!

It also made things much more enjoyable when I chose a skill I actually like using. It's important to start a side hustle in a way that you know you'll stay engaged.

Trust me, YOU HAVE SKILLS! Even if you think you don't. You may just need a little help.

In this featured post on the blog, you'll learn:

  • How to identify your skills
  • What side hustles match to your skills
  • How to learn new skills in record time
  • How your skill doesn't have to be perfect before going out and monetizing it
  • And more

Hey Reader, Side hustling is what originally helped me to pivot to a fully remote job at the beginning of my tech career. After I worked for a startup my first year after college, I was a freelance web developer for some time. This allowed me to build skills in a way I wouldn't have at another corporate job. I was able to get a dose of working as my own boss, managing my own time, and getting pretty decent-paying gigs. It was the perfect setup for honing my coding skills and padding my...
