Why online biz doesn't work

"I've tried every online business but nothing sticks. I work hard for a few weeks then lose interest. What's wrong with me?"

This is one of the most issues I see people face when trying to make the infamous “Internet money”.

But it’s so common because everyone is following the same script:

  1. Chase whatever business model promises the fastest cash.

  2. Get bored because the work feels like pulling teeth.

  3. Quit.

  4. See the next shiny object.

  5. Repeat.

I know this too well because I did the same damn thing:

  • Web design (lasted 1 month)

  • iPhone repair (lasted 2 months)

  • Day trading (lasted 3 weeks)

  • Amazon FBA (lasted... you get the point)

Here's what nobody tells you about making money:

It’s not about finding the "perfect" business model promising passive income.

It's about finding work that aligns with who you are.

When I failed at all those businesses, I blamed myself for being a potato who “didn’t have what it takes.”

But the reality?

I hated the work that the business model required.

And it’s no wonder why I quit. You would too if you spent 8 hours a day doing something that made your soul cringe.

But when I found ghostwriting? Different story.

I genuinely enjoyed learning about people's stories and expertise. Writing felt natural. The challenges became fun puzzles instead of torture.

Suddenly "consistency" wasn't a battle anymore. Because the work itself gave me energy instead of draining it.

That's when everything changed.

Look, I'm not saying ghostwriting is for everyone.

But here's the million-dollar lesson:

The fastest way to get rich is to find work you'd do even if you weren't getting paid.

For you that could be ghostwriting, or it could be grabbing a jar of peanut butter and going nuts on OnlyFans (I’m not judging).

But when you enjoy the work, you'll outlast everyone else. While they quit and hop to the next shiny object, you'll be building something real.

  • Something fulfilling.

  • Something sustainable.

  • Something that actually makes you money.

The money follows the alignment.

Not the other way around.

Think about that next time you're tempted to start a business just because some guru flexed their Lambo.
