Physio Memes
Three years ago, Andrew Tran searched online for memes pages related to physical therapy. Finding none, he decided to “scratch his own itch” and create his own page.
He called it Physio Memes.
Fast forward to the present day: Andrew has grown his fun hobby project into a successful online business, boasting multiple income streams and tens of thousands of followers on social media.

Earn $15 to $40 per hour proofreading and editing
This post on Reddit lists 8 companies/websites that hire professional editors and proofreaders.

If you want to learn editing and proofreading, this course on LinkedIn Learning looks good. Costs $15 but you should be able to get a free month with that link.
An interview with a freelance editor and proofreader who earned $1,375 in her first full month working online, despite spending just 11 hours per week on her business.
Which social media platform is best for your business?
Neil Patel polled 483 companies to figure out the value of 100 followers on each social media platform.
Among the findings:
Pinterest drives the most traffic (almost 5 visits per 100 followers), while Instagram drives the least (almost 0 visits per 100 followers).
LinkedIn scored the best on engagements per post, while Twitter scored the worst.
Instagram dominates in terms of video views per 100 followers (no doubt helped by their loose definition of a “view”).
LinkedIn dominates for turning followers into email subscribers.
Companies were generating more than 7% of revenue from social media traffic in 2015. Today, less than 2%.
Overall, I come away from that article with a much better impression of LinkedIn – it ranks #1 or #2 in every category!
Is your business active on LinkedIn?
If so, how is it working for you?
435 Сompanies Hiring Remotely Right Now
147 of the companies are apparently hiring “anywhere,” so open to folks outside the USA.
Loads of different positions listed there. To name a few: accounts coordinator, appointment setter, community support, finance manager, product designer, project manager, travel service expert, web developer.
Udemy Sale
No surprise that Udemy has another sale going on. (They seem to do one every few weeks.)
Here are two courses on sale for $10.99 that look especially juicy:
The Complete Video Production Bootcamp – 52,730 students, average rating of 4.5 stars
The Complete Digital Marketing Guide – 17 Courses in 1 – 8,390 students, average rating of 4.5 stars
“In the future, everyone will be self-employed.”
Not sure who that quote should be attributed to, but a new study of the US workforce seems to confirm that such a future is rapidly approaching.
The study reports that 35% of American workers freelanced in 2018, with 3.7 million more people jumping on the freelance train since 2014.
Other items of note from the study:
“Both freelancers and non-freelancers prioritize achieving the lifestyle that they want, but freelancers are more likely to get it.”
“Freelancers feel anxious about all they have to manage, but they also have a better work/life balance with more control over one’s own destiny and schedule, resulting in less stress and better health.”
“51% of freelancers say no amount of money would get them to take a traditional job.”
31% of freelancers earn $75,000 or more per year.
“Full-time freelancers see much greater flexibility in their day-to-day work than full-time non-freelancers”
When asked where they typically find work, the most common answer from freelancers was, “friends and family.” (Related: here’s an easy way to let friends and family know about your freelance services.)
“The majority of those who left a job in order to freelance say they make more now than they did with an employer…and it didn’t take them long to get there.”
Worth noting that the study was commissioned by Upwork and Freelancers Union, both of which are obviously pro-freelancing.
So while all the above paints a rosy picture of self-employment, best take it with a pinch of salt.

Momentos
These are my Momentos, vignettes I write daily and publish twice a month. They’re incredibly self-indulgent and I’m surprised anyone reads them. There’s one for every day since February 27, 2013.
Patrons get to read each new batch before anyone else.

Another thing you see all the time in Bali are the canang sari. Intricate little things about the size of beer mats, small trays made from betel leaves, decorated with flowers and often containing rice or a small biscuit. These are daily offerings to the Hindu gods, left on shrines, steps, and in every doorway.
17
Ubud is a terrible place for recording audio. I’m in the bedroom with a bedsheet over my head and pillows all around the laptop, speaking into the mic but having to stop and regularly redo because of dogs barking, pigeons cooing, roosters crowing, engines revving, traffic honking, children yelling.
18
Been going through the Waking Up course, listening to Sam Harris talk about having no head. Everything happens in the same space, he says: thoughts, sensations, moods, sounds. That space is consciousness. And it’s not a space in your head; your head is just another thought and sensation in that space.
19
Exploring another part of Ubud, following a little path north of the town through the rice fields. We find two kids about nine years old taking fish out of a stream with their bare hands. The bigger kid asks if we want some, right as he pulls down his pants and takes a whiz into the water.
20
Was meditating today and heard my phone buzz, immediately got a strong sense it was news that someone had died back home. Checked my phone. It was nothing. How often we’re wrong about things like that and shrug it off, but get it right one time and we attribute it to some magical psychic connection and tell all our friends.
21
Listening to an entrepreneur on a podcast saying how he red-lined pretty much every other part of his life to get his business to the next level. His health went to shit and he was pounding caffeine and study drugs to keep grinding. And it worked. He got there. Not sure what to make of that.
22
Buddy of mine recently ran six marathons in six days in the Sahara Desert. Reading his account of it today and for a split second was thinking, “Shit, I should be doing epic stuff like that.” But I don’t really want to do it. I want to have done it and be able to write about it. And that’s not a good reason to do something.
23
I know I’ve been working too much lately because my sleep ain’t great, waking up well before I’ve had enough rest, mind racing. Made a deal with my Mastermind buddy that I’d get three videos published this month, $1000 penalty for each one missed. That’s what’s been keeping my brain busy.
24
Reading a great book about human evolution, one of my favorite subjects. Learning that we most likely became bipedal on account of spears. An ape that could stand and walk on two legs wielding a spear for long periods of time had a big advantage. He could hunt more effectively and predators didn’t dare fuck with him.
25
Back of a taxi, new city, new country. But I’m tired and cranky, been acting the prick, not nice to be around. I used to love arriving in a new place, but travel has lost its appeal. Thinking it’s because back then I was searching, figuring out what and who I wanted. Now I know. All travel does is take me away from them.
26
Was aiming to be earning at least $1,000 a month by now from affiliate marketing. Just checked one account and I’ve earned $1,300 in the past 24 hours. That’s not normal by any means – and it’s not money in the bank just yet – but Jesus Christ did it give me a boost.
27
We’re on the helipad of a 36-story building as the sun goes down, painting the sky a pale red. They’ve turned this space into a bar, a popular spot in Kuala Lumpur. It’s fairly packed but the vibe’s good. I feel at ease. The last two days have been better. The last two days I’ve been better.
28
About midnight in a taxi on our way back to Ubud, listening to Joe Rogan interview Bob Lazar about some mad alien shit. Dude sounds believable, not one of those whacky conspiracy types. He claims to have worked for the government in the 80s, had his hands on advanced alien technology.
29
I’d like to do the Worldpackers thing sometime. Not right now – gotta stay focused on the business. But someday when that’s steady and I can leave the wheel for weeks at a stretch, it’d be nice to have more authentic travel experiences, not just jump from one Airbnb to another.
30
Barely made the cut, got that third video finished this afternoon. Audio isn’t great on it though. Considered re-recording but that would have added at least 3 hours to my workload today for maybe a 5% improvement. Can’t justify that. It’s not perfect, but it’s perfect enough.

Social Media Marketing Agency (new video review)
Here’s a new video you might enjoy, literally published a few minutes ago: a review of Tai Lopez’s Social Media Marketing Agency program.
It complements my written review here.
I’ve been earning some decent affiliate commissions from that written review so I figured I might as well double-down on what’s working and create the video version.
(Funnily enough, it looks like the price of SMMA has been increased to $997 right as I’m releasing the video. D’oh! But I’m sure it will be back down to a more reasonable price soon enough.)
Likes, comments and feedback on the video would be VERY much appreciated!
Learning to code?
Here are 7 “absolute truths” a ten-year software engineering veteran had to unlearn as a junior developer.
Some of my favorite snippets from that:
Not all experience is created equal.
Mentors are so important.
Being overly opinionated on topics you lack real-world experience with is pretty arrogant.
Good enough is good enough.
Focus on automation over documentation where appropriate.
40 Lessons From 4 Years of Remote Work
Read this first if you’re thinking of getting a remote job.
Excerpts:
6. Most people already know whether remote work would work for them. If you think to yourself, “I can’t do that; I would just watch TV all day,” you’re probably right. Don’t try it.
14. Combatting guilt is the biggest remote work secret no one tells you. I think it’s because you don’t get any “cues” like you would in an office, like when you look around and you’re the only one working because there’s a cake in the kitchen.
28. The work soundtrack is so crucial! My tip is to scan Soundcloud for long (one- to two-hour) DJ mixes so I can get in a block of focus work. A great place to start is Soullection radio shows.
36. If you drive a vehicle, you will eventually work from home so long that you forget rush hour exists. When you remember why you’re stuck in traffic, you’ll kick yourself at first, and then marvel with gratitude that you don’t go through it every day like so many others.
(Related, here’s a quick list of remote job boards: Jobspresso, Remote.co, Remote OK, Remote Work Hub, Remotive.io, We Work Remotely, Working Nomads.)
Making money from podcasting
Some fascinating insights in this 2019 podcast report from Andreessen Horowitz.
They note that it’s notoriously difficult to make money from podcasts.
The average podcast apparently monetizes at only $0.01 per active user per hour. That’s 10x less than radio, 23x less than the rest of the web, and 71x less than newspapers.
That said, there are a few big winners out there:
The New York Times’ The Daily podcast was projected to earn at least $10 million in revenue from ads last year (that’s $2 minimum per monthly listener).
The top podcaster on Patreon, Chapo Trap House, earns more than $131,000/month from almost 30k patrons. (You can get a taste of their content here.)
Back in 2016, podcaster Tim Ferriss wrote: “If I wanted to fully monetize the show at my current rates, I could make between $2-4M per year, depending on how many episodes and spots I offer.”
Quoting the Andreessen Horowitz report:
Some back-of-the-envelope calculations around how much podcasters are making: Assuming CPMs of $25-50, if a podcast is in the top 1% in terms of downloads episode, or has 35,000 downloads per episode, each episode could generate about $4,000 per episode with two ad slots.
(Related: Why No One Should Ever Start A Podcast)
Progress happens slowly; setbacks happen fast
Here’s a great article discussing five lessons from history.
At least three of them are applicable to business, especially #4:
Progress happens too slowly for people to notice; setbacks happen too fast for people to ignore.
For example, did you know that nobody really took notice of the Wright brothers and their flying machines until more than 4 years AFTER their first successful flight?
This is why grit and resilience are such important traits when you work for yourself. You often have to wait a long time to reap what you sow.
How would you respond to this client?
How would you respond to a prospective client who says:
“Your quote is too high. You told me X hours to get the job done. Other freelancers have told me they could do the job in Y hours max.”
A member of our private Freedom Business Builder group responded along these lines:
“Yes, I imagine my quote is higher than other freelancers. That’s because I take the time to get the job done right and make sure everything is double-checked and polished before I consider it finished. I’ve also factored in time to allow for revisions. My priority is to get the job done right the first time, and to achieve that I’m never going to be the cheapest option.”
The result?
He ended up selling the client on a $2,000 web design project!
That price was a little lower than originally quoted, but still his biggest freelancing gig yet.
I’d call that a win.
How to write a blog post (more valuable than you think)
Two use cases for this in-depth guide on how to write a blog post from Backlinko:
You want to create better content for your own site and get more traffic.
You’re a freelance writer who wants to create epic content for your clients and get paid serious $$$.
Either way, if you go through that post and implement the recommendations there, you’ll be doing better work than 99% of your competition.
Royalty-free illustrations for your project
Lots of slick illustrations available for free here, even for commercial use.
I particularly like that you can adjust the color of the illustrations to fit your brand before downloading.
Wanna work remotely from an Irish island?
Arranmore has 468 residents, secluded beaches, a pub, and a new coworking space.
Just be sure to pack your wellies.
Airtasker (a new Upwork-like platform)
I received an email from someone at Airtasker during the week and checked out their platform. It’s a bit like Upwork, but also includes offline jobs.
Filtering for remote gigs, here are a few juicy ones I found just now:
WordPress website touch ups – $200
I need video editing – $400
Summarise 20 Business Articles – $300
Digital & Social Media Marketing Expert – $500
Set up a WordPress Membership Site – $800
Note however that, similar to Upwork, Airtasker does have quite high fees. They’ll take a 20% cut of your earnings when you’re starting out (full info here).
…
That’ll do it for this week.
Rock on with your legendary self.

I’ve had 5 different needles in my body today. Rash on my arms and legs. Sweated through my bedsheets. Took four pills. Ate an egg sandwich. Watched a scary movie. Took a shower with my hand in a bag. Drank lots of water. Made countless trips to the bathroom. And I’m not allowed to brush my teeth.
2
I’ve now been in a hospital bed for four days. Don’t think I’ve been this confined since getting my appendix out 25 years ago. And to think this all happened because of a mosquito I can’t remember. How can something so small and insignificant cause so much trouble?
3
Finally checked out. Taxi back to Ubud, kites in the sky. Final bill was about $4000. Insurance will cover the vast majority of it. I could have afforded it out of pocket, but that would have sucked. Buy insurance, folks. SafetyWing costs me little more than $1 a day. Well worth it.
4
Gonna be another few days before I’m back to normal. Did just an hour of emails and such today and was wrecked after it. Dengue will still be in my system for almost a week. Really appreciating how much of a privilege it is to work. Not everybody can.
5
At this point, I have to say I prefer Chiang Mai to Ubud. Things are a bit cleaner and more convenient in CM, can walk everywhere and there are loads of coworking spaces. The digital nomad community isn’t great in either, but the super spiritual types are really starting to grate on me here in Bali.
6
My book is five years old now, started re-reading it in the hospital. Grateful to have that record of my travels, lots in there I would have forgotten otherwise. Same could be said of these Momentos. How easy it is for memories to fade. I hope you’ve found some way to capture your own.
7
Unpublished a couple hundred blog posts on my site today. Trying to cut back on the fluff and turn this thing into a lean, value-adding, money-making machine. In hindsight, I’ve written a lot of random crap over the years. Time to get focused and only put quality content out there.
8
Working on a video about survey sites, pulling together all the footage and graphics I’ll need. Going to try pump out a handful of videos this month. Most content creators just write an article and hope for the best. I’m going to go the extra mile with video, see how that shakes out.
9
There’s something about getting a little extra work done on the weekend. Only needs be a couple of hours, and you feel you’ve accomplished a lot. I guess the ideal is to treat every day like that, like you don’t need to rush and hustle, that whatever you get done is a bonus, and you’re thankful for it.
10
Been experimenting the past few weeks with not using an alarm. It’s nice in one way, just waking up whenever my body is good and ready. But can’t say I feel any more rested than I used to, back when I used an alarm clock. I am getting more sleep, but perhaps after a certain amount the returns diminish.
11
Haven’t made any new friends here in Bali. Been keeping to ourselves mostly. That’s the comfort zone. But I’ll be disappointed if we’re here until December and haven’t met and befriended some cool people. Gotta make an effort to attend some events, strike up conversations.
12
One thing you get used to in Bali is living with insects. You can’t keep them out of any place. I see streams of ants at the gym, mingling by the bedroom wall, marching in and out of the kitchen bin. After a while you just shrug and let them be. This jungle island is their home, not ours.
13
Google update cut my traffic almost in half last week. Which means my affiliate income takes a hit. Doesn’t seem to be any good reason for it either. They knocked down some content that I know is far better than what’s now ranking ahead of it. Hopefully time will make it right.
14
Starting to get a little sense of home in Ubud now. Been going to the same cafe for lunch almost every day. They know my order, names have been exchanged. It’s those little familiarities and acknowledgments that I miss when moving about constantly. You never get to know anyone, and no one ever gets to know you.
15
Began this batch of Momentos laid up in the hospital. Closing them out feeling strong and healthy. Eight consecutive days in the gym, energy levels high, sleeping and eating well. Heard someone say today though that a sick man has only one desire, while a healthy man has many. True.

No email last week because I was in hospital with dengue fever.
You can read more about that misadventure in my latest Momentos.
May Finance Report
Last month I earned $2,931 and spent $2,735.
More significantly, my affiliate income increased from $326 to $1,540.
23 Ways This Guy Earns Passive Income
A fascinating and in-depth post by Nick Loper from Side Hustle Nation.
I particularly loved the example of one article that has generated more than $30,000 in affiliate revenue from Udemy.
As mentioned in my latest Momentos, I got a nice taste of the power of passive income last week, when I generated about $400 in commissions in three days while sick with dengue and not doing any work.
Get Paid To Travel And Date
The gig, which is paid, will involve a 12-month stint spent traveling to various parts of the world to “go on dates, make friends, and create professional connections” with other Bumble users. All the while, you’ll be documenting your experience for Bumble’s various social media channels, conducting “research,” and occasionally creating editorial content for the company. Essentially, you’d become Bumble’s global emissary.
Eliminate background noise during calls
I haven’t tried the free Krisp app myself yet, but it’s getting very good reviews. (Mac only for now.)
Who Pays Writers?
Who Pays Writers? Is an anonymous, crowd-sourced list of which publications pay freelance writers—and how much.
For example, National Geographic News reportedly pay up to $1 per word, while The Oprah Magazine pays $2.
Quora Sucks For Content Marketing
Over the past 3 months or so I spent a few hours answering questions on the Quora platform in an attempt to drive traffic to my website.
Google’s core update
If you’ve noticed some significant changes in organic traffic to your website this week, Google’s latest update is likely to be the cause.
Search Engine Land reports on some of the big winners and losers.
Coursera
We’ve added Coursera to our list of recommended sites for online courses, alongside Udemy and Skillshare.
The difference with Coursera is that their courses come from the world’s top universities and companies. You can read and view all courses for free, but must pay for certification.
