Smart Passive Income #240 - P90X, Crush It

This blog moved to a new location, please visit us at http://ramble.m2m.at.
 
Did you notice the "Smart Passive Income" part in the title? ... The last couple of postings did not really contain passive income topics ... well, the blog posts, I am commenting on, are from Pat's Smart-Passive-Income blog thus there was a little bit of context ...

Pat's current blog post brings us back to passive income ... remember, you create a product once, setup an automated way to monetize your product, and make money without additional effort ... thus it's called passive ...

Affiliate links are a way of passive income ... you place links to a product, somebody clicks on those links, buys the product, and you make money from it ... without further work ...

Pat does not only place affiliate links to a single product, but to two products into his post:
Of course he embeds everything into a personal story. Wanting to get/stay healthy Pat recently started this new exercise program - called P90X - which consists of 90 days "gut-busting, iron-pumping, fat-trimming, muscle-building, endurance-enhancing, nutrition-mastering, life-changing". Pat is on day 4 - Yoga - ... note that he does not give any more information to make us restless to know more and therefore visit P90X to learn more, buy the product, get healthy ... being a couch potato myself, he got me interested ... next thing I will do, I will click here to learn more ;)

Pat would not be Pat if his story ended here ... he compares the P90X program to being/becoming an entrepreneur:
  • it takes time - 90 days for P90X, becoming a successful entrepreneur probably more ... 
  • keep track of numbers - weight, body fat percentage, exercise time vs. income, payments, rates, ...
  • take breaks - your body needs to rest in between excessive session, so does your body/mind when working ...
  • get motivation from others - P90X seem to have message boards, for your work you have mastermind groups ...
  • bring it - at least so says each workout DVD ... in business that would be Crush It, go on click on the link, I dare you ;) ...
  • and finally commitment ... your body will not change sitting on your couch watching TV ... and your business will not either ...
