I think, before one can achieve the 2 hour workday or 4 Hour Work Week, one would have had to lay the groundwork, which would take more than 2 hours a day — more like 40 a week! Only then, when one is successful, do you then relax enough to simply monitor and maintain your business.

The key would be to build in systems that can help ensure the work is automated as much as possible.

From 1 October 2008, the Australia standard Federal Minimum Wage is $14.31 per hour or $543.78 per week. I wish it was this high in the US. I would be a lot better off.

Your Message
Working for just 2 hour a day is a dream for most and it is very hard to become a reality. Most people sometimes become addicted to working more than 2 hours – not because they have to, but because they want to.

A 2 hour work day would be absolutely ideal, but for some reason, I just can’t get myself to do it. I am always bombarded with fresh ideas that interest me. So even though I could probably get away with the 2 hour work day, I don’t do it, because I enjoy what I do.

Once again, this is a great article. Love the way you break everything down. Going to have to purchase blog mastermind just because of your posts. Absolutely great. You have to wonder, if he is giving this much good information away for free, imagine what he will be offering when you give him some money

While a 2 hour work day is a dream for most, it is very hard to turn it into reality. In my experience I become addicted to working more than 2 hours – not because I have to, but because I want to. I am constantly reading, learning, expanding, and acting.

Sustained income requires a lot of upfront work, as you mentioned, but once the goal is accomplished it is a truly great feeling.

Thanks Yaro,

All very true here. Living a 2-hour workday is really great – this is why we are all in this Business, right? To work less, and spend more time with our families and doing things we love.

The sad thing is, many people when starting out, believe it will take them just a couple of months to reach that.

It took me over two years to get where I am now. It took me many hours of research and implementation, research and implementation again. I failed and succeeded. And I can say – it`s achievable, but not easy for sure. Although when you get there, you`re the king of the world

Hello Yaro,
I just wanted to say that I finished reading, “The Richest Man in Babylon” a few days ago and it was an interesting book for one that is small, but informative. What I think is the most important in the book is: Where the determination is, the way can be found and work is the best friend. I believe in working, but being smart about it. Thinking smarter, not harder and doing something that you enjoy. When I heard about passive income from Robert Kiyosaki from RichDad PoorDad and you, I knew that was the way to do things. Make money work for you instead of you work for money.
Another book that you recommend is the, “E-Myth” by Michael Gerber that I want to read.
Thank you for telling about sponsors. I want to contact some from a forum for my blog, but I keep putting it off because I don’t think they will accept my proposal and I think I’m holding myself back. I keep putting it off and I just need to TRY. I want to make a big first impression. If I never do it, I will never know. I will just have to keep putting out the intention until I succeed.
I will read your other article in this email and see what you have to say.
Keep writing those posts and delivering great content.

Cheers,
Rick

Your Message The 2 most important things in life are:
1: What you do about what you think is most important.
2: What really is most important.

Human life basically a balancing act between emotions and logic,
(what you want and what you need). The more you do what you
want and get what you need, the healthier, wealthier and happier
you are likely to be.

“If 2 people agree on everything, 1 of them is unnecessary!”

Of course, if you agree with me on everything that’s great because
then, I can have my way with you and keep telling you how great
you are, so I can keep having my way with you.

If you don’t agree with that, it indicates that you are necessary but,
for what and to whom?

I believe that happiness is making others happy. How can I make you
uh………………………………………………………………………………..happy?

Great post Yaro!

I just started using affiliate sites and blogging to increase my sales. And I would like to thank Cheryl Clausen’s post Your Small Business Can’t Survive without Effective Marketing which explained to me clearly how to start a marketing blog. I’m impressed with how you make that much money off with your blog. Me too, had become fond of reading magazines but I still need some guides on how to make my blog look like that of a magazine.

Yaro, nicely said. Most of the time our plan is flawed as we reply on kind of events you mention. You should start with building some small income streams.

Once you have a passive income source you can focus on traveling and building bigger projects.

Long-time reader, first-time commenter.

Decided to stop watching and start doing so this series of posts couldn’t have came along at a better time for me.

Thanks for your great content and impeccable timing.

Hi Yaro,

Great Post. I’m a newbie seeking some answers before joining your program. I know it’s great but how about folks like me from West Africa where power is epileptic and the internet access is even worse a sometimes?

I’m a little concerned about how these might affect me once i start. I’ve sent some Tweets to you but haven’t gotten a reply yet.

i’ve been a blogger for 3 years now and i want to take it to the next level.

Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks

Great points about event independent income. Many people want to get rich with doing little work, but their plan is flawed as they rely on the kind of events that you mentioned. If you want to succeed with little weekly work, you need to setup some kind of passive income that will keep coming in regardless of what you do. Once you build up these income streams, then you have the freedom to travel or focus on bigger projects.

That is great that you mentioned Ed Dale, he is the greatest expert on buying and selling websites. I bought his course Dominiche that is all about the art of buying and selling websites, it was great.

Thanks again for another inspiring post, Yaro.

Passive income is also a goal of mine. It fits perfectly into the “lifestyle design” way of thinking.

By blog is not at the stage yet where I can sell advertising but I do have an information product for sale (which I’m selling on a separate site), and I plan on developing a couple of more this year. It’s all about having different income streams which don’t necessarily rely on the other.

Looking forward to more about this 2-hour series!

There is no more blogging for fun. Only a few use the platform for fun, most are using it as an Independent income stream. You continue to inspire me and everyone that reads your blogs. You don’t just offer a good article or two, your entire blog is a learning platform that never loses its professionalism

As Always a pleasure to read.

Good stuff Yaro. I’m on month 5 of blog mastermind. At this point I’ve had over 4000 unique visitors, 8000 page views, and had guest posts on the major blogs in my category. So, I think I’m well on my way. I have to admit at times, I want things to progress faster. But, I think your point about the 2 hour work day is spot on. Most people see my lifestyle ( I spend about 6 hours a day surfing-ocean, not internet), and they wonder when I write blog posts and apply for jobs. Most people suffer from having too much time rather than not enough. in fact when we have less time, we tend to be much more efficient.

Thanks Yaro, I have a popular site and I rely on Adsense but this articles has given me the inspiration to directly approach potential advertisers who I know will benefit from the traffic. I just haven’t had the confidence to believe in getting out there before.

Residual income is something Robewrt Kyosaki is big on too. The more independent self sustaining income streams you have, the better. This is the ultimate key toi financial freedom.

Right! Generating passive income on the Internet is crucial but possible, but not without some investment in time and money.

The most powerful messages I walked away with after reading his books:

* Do not get stuck in the way things were or are.
* Get busy turning things into what they could be.
* Change isn’t made by asking permission.
* Change is made by asking for forgiveness later.
* The Web makes it easier to connect with people and create your own micromovement.
* True leaders understand that change is not only omnipresent, but the key to success.

Despite your current source of income, most people desire to create another independent source of income. As opposed to dependent income that requires your presence and attention, the independent income will offer more opportunities to create money.

Therefore, this is one step you can take towards attaining your desired financial freedom as it continuously bring in money. Experts believe that you are more likely to get financial freedom once your passive (or independent) income exceeds the amount of your expenditures. As soon as you have fully established this particular source of income, you are sure to earn money even if you are not doing work

Blogging for money is a very easy thing. The most important and the difficult part is to make the blog set up. Once you have overcome this hurdle, you will have an easy flow of money in your hand. The thing is that you have to post more and more number of posts because it will enhance the number of traffic.

It’s posts like this that gives us a kick in the butt when we’re feeling lazy about our blog. We want the passive income but sometimes get frustrated with our efforts.

I’d love a passive income so I could travel and have more time to work on other projects! I hope in six months, I can say that I’m living it.

Knowing about how you got started and the amount of effort you actually put in in order to get to where you are today is the inspiration I need to keep on going.
