So I finally decided to give SFI a try and quit giving myself reasons not to try it. I'm not sure why I kept waiting and waiting to give it a shot.

 So I signed up tonight and thought I should start checking it out and see what all the hype was about. I have heard from many people over the last few months that it is really worth doing. Of course that is the same story you hear about every online business. Those that are trying to recruit you have nothing but good things to say and how you can make a ton of money. 

 I first seen this about a year ago but never really looked into it. Well, I finally broke down and signed up and from what I see so far I am impressed. I like that they tell you to start out slow and learn as much as you can first.

 So my goal is to learn and earn, I will be updating here as I go along. I will let you know what I like and what I don't. I will let you know what is working for me and what has failed. As we all know you never go through without a failure or two. 

 Wish me luck and check back to see how things are going.

 That is right there is a site out there that will pay you to socialize. Tsu is a fairly new site that pays you to socialize, they actually pay you per view on your posts (content).

 Imagine the bit social media site, (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) paying you to use there site. I know it's hard to believe, it was for me too. I know I had the same question, why would they pay you for that. A better question is why shouldn't they pay you?

 Think about this...Facebook is a billion dollar company and who makes all the money from all those annoying ads on "your" page? Facebook does of course but who brings all those people to the page that has all your content on it? You do, so why are you not making any money from it? Yea, that was my question too.
 
 Why would a social media site pay it's users? Up until now they haven't and my guess is cause they haven't had to. Tsu might be changing that. Think about it this way and I know it is crazy cause this is not how the world usually works but why not pay the ones that are making you rich? I know the ones who came up with the idea and do the programming and run the site can make all the money but if you the user are not there they wont make a penny so why not pay you something for your time?

 Well Tsu had looked at it that way and are paying their users. Will you be able to quit you day job, no. Will you make more money than you ever have at the other social media sites, Yes.

 Check out more about Tsu on my "Other" page.

 Not only should learning something new everyday be part of your everyday life but also something that you strive for in earning online. There is always something more you can learn and use in your online business.
 I try to read something and learn something everyday for my online business. There is no one out there that knows it all since it is constantly changing. The idea is to try to keep up the best you can with all the changes. If at some point you think you know it all and there is nothing new for you to learn is when you will start to lose money rather than make it.

 Set goals for yourself on what you want to learn and how you are going to go about learning it. Something that I try to keep up with is a schedule of things to search and learn about each day. My schedule looks something like this.

 I try to spend at least an hour on this day to research and learn as much as I can on these things. Some days I miss out or can't spend as much time on it as I would like to but then I will find something and just save it to read another day when I have more time.

• Monday - Referrals 
• Tuesday - Traffic
• Wednesday - Catch up on the days before, that I didn't have time to read as much.
• Thursdays - Ads
• Friday - New sites to make money
• Sat and Sun - Catch up and relax 

 Sometimes you just have to relax and enjoy yourself and for me that is what the weekend is all about. I work but it's kind of a few days of just relaxing and doing what I want to do without so much following the plan.

 Just remember working for yourself is about learning all you can and putting the best plans into play and earning all you can for you.

 With Paid To Click sites you really can't spread yourself to thin. The idea is to make as much as you can each day right? Well with these sites paying at most about $0.04 a click and referral clicks around $0.01 a click the idea would be to get as many sites filled with referrals as you can. 
 Now be warned that most sites will require you to at least click 4 or more ads a day to earn from your referrals so not hitting those click you are going to lose out on your referral earnings. So make sure that if you sign up for an amount if sites that you will be able to click at least the minimum amount of clicks each day.

 So if you decide on 10 different sites, figure at least an hours worth of work. Now each click might only be 10 or 30 seconds but my time you sign in and check how your pay and referrals are doing. I would say your going to spend at least an hour in front of the computer getting all your clicks in. If you can not do this amount of time each day than you might not want to sign up to ten sites or at least not get referrals for all these sites.

At first you might take longer as you try to figure out the sites and how best to spend your time. Once you get to know them this time will be cut down. 

 Make sure not to spread yourself to thin and lose out on income, make sure that you are making the most from all the sites you are working with. Than if you see that you have additional time start to take on more and more sites till your at your maximum level of free time. The more that you can work the more earnings you will make. 

 So it is Saturday and I had some free time and been working at my online earnings. The upside of earning online is any day at anytime you can be earning money. Unlike a normal job there is no set time to do some work and earn a little cash. There are some upsides and downsides to working online.

 There are many upsides to working online. 

• No set hours - Work when you want or when you have a little free time and stop working when you want.
• No travel time - Forget those commutes to work and the rush hour traffic. 
• No dress code - No spending money on work close, want to work in your pajamas? Go for it!
• Low stress - No boss breathing down your back, or annoying co-workers bothering you.
• Family Time - Working from home allows more family time.

 There are some downsides to working online from home:

• Isolation - Some start to feel lonely when working from home. 
• Work never ends - Make sure to set times to get away from the computer and get outside.
• No separation from work/home - Again make sure to set work times and more importantly end times to make time for things needing to be done around the house.

 One thing that I really like about it is on a day like Saturday when you have nothing to do I can up in a little extra time to make some money, unlike my full time job. 
 Just make sure you are not so obsessed with making money that you don't take time for yourself and burn yourself out.

 Getting Started is one of the hardest steps to earning online. You just don't know where to start or what site will actually pay you. Who is out there scamming and who is not?

 I know when I first started I didn't know where to put my time. The last thing I wanted to do was start somewhere and put my time and effort into something and not get any money. Who wants to start a job and then find out they are not getting a pay check? 

 You came to a good place to start with. Read the About page and see what and why you should continue to read and search on this site. 

 I suggest you take a look around and see what it is your interested in doing and then go from there. I have a few pages here that should get you started. On the pages I have tried to give a little overview of the type of work you can find online and then I have given some ideas of places I have dealt with and who is good about paying and who is not so good.

 I will be updating as much as I can to let you know about anything new. Any changes on the sites that I use and any new sites that I find along the way.
