Lots of people are looking for other ways to generate income.  There are people making very, very good money from blogging.  Others wonder if they could do the same.

The purpose of this blog, Confidence And Joy, is not to retire me.  I have another plan in the works for that.  And like everything else it takes time and effort.

But if you want to go the route of earning money from a blog, I would highly recommend Joel Williams. Before he launched into teaching people how to build and monetize their blogs, he helped tons of people build and design their blog, including Confidence And Joy. Much of the design and layout of this blog is Joel’s handiwork.

My relationship with Joel over the past two years has been just wonderful.  He knows his stuff; he is honest; and, he follows up very quickly.  He doesn’t take on any new clients anymore, to help and fix their blog sites, but he does offer a very powerful course.  He actually shows you how to build your blog step by step, and then how to monetize it.

Last June I did a quick post about Joel. Now that the New Year is upon us, and many people are looking for alternative ways of generating income, either full or part-time, I thought I would pass this on for those considering the blogging world.

But make no mistake!  Whatever alternative route you decide on, it is going to take time and effort.  It is true in monetizing a blog, and it is true in the new venture I am involved with.  I am on a 3 to 5 year plan to retire.  It takes time and effort, and, sadly, lots of people just don’t want to roll up their sleeves and build something.

If you think you might want to get into blogging to generate income, then get Joel’s course.  He and his partner Andrew have really put something solid together that I highly recommend.  And, if after 2 months you are not happy, they give you a full refund.  That’s cool because that length of time gives even the busiest person time to learn and grow.

If you’re not into generating an income through blogging, and you want to know what I’m into, just contact me personally and I’ll be happy to share it with you.  More and more people are beginning to look for other ways to generate the income they need.  Times have changed and so have the rules.  Many people are beginning to see they need to be in charge of their own lives.

If you are thinking of working from home and doing something different than the “insecure job,” always remember to stay away from the “get rich quick” schemes.  You are not going to make 10, 20 or 30 thousand dollars a month for doing nothing in your first month.  It takes time and effort.  But the right fit for you could be very rewarding as you build your own business.
