The real secret to becoming a part-time creator??

Becoming a part-time creator can be simple!??♀?

However, it’s difficult to find the resources, the motivation and the time to be able to take that step.

As an agency, we have been creating content for several years.??

However, we only recently discovered the secret to becoming a part-time creator.?

People have worlds of advice to give to you the minute you say you want to take up a side-job.

Advice like wake up at 5 AM everyday, hustle, hustle, hustle, go to your daily 9 to 5, come back, rinse and repeat everyday, until your side hustle starts to take off.?

However, anyone that’s ever tried to take on something outside of their 9 to 5, will know that life just doesn’t work that way.?

The daily routine never goes according to plan and can often get messy.

But what they don’t know is that it’s supposed to be like that.??

Here’s a few pieces of advice we’ve put together if you want to start your content creation journey beside your daily 9-5.?

??Scrap your daily routine

Instead of pushing yourself to stick to a daily routine that simply isn’t plausible for you, you can approach productivity as a part-time creator this way-

• By trying new things! Sample various techniques and ideas, and see what sticks. Test out the 5 AM method, or test out the night owl method. One is guaranteed to work.?
• Why not mix it up? You don’t have to force yourself if the routine isn’t working. It’s all about the productivity you channel into your work. So rather than pushing yourself to wake up or sleep really early everyday- keep switching it up so it doesn’t get too monotonous, and find something that works for you!?

??Don’t try to be better than yesterday

Life simply doesn’t work this way. It’s impossible to think that your productivity and performance increases on a daily basis. What do you do when you forget to counter in the bad days? What if something unexpected happens? Or what if your plans change??

Pushing yourself to be better than yesterday (or even tomorrow, for some) will only lead you to burning out quicker.

So don’t try to be better than yesterday.

Just be!

??Don’t be nitpicky

Aim for a positive result, overall.??

People often wake up with the drive and ambition to do more for themselves and their side hustles, everyday.?

But on the days you don’t feel motivated enough to do?more,?don’t beat yourself up for it. You don’t have to hit every single one of your goals, every day.?

Just pick yourself up, pat yourself on the back and believe that you will have a better tomorrow.

You can aim high, but don’t be ashamed if you can’t reach your goals on your off days. Missing a day here and there really doesn’t matter, in the grand scheme of things.?

If you follow these steps and learn not to be too hard on yourself, watch your productivity sky rocket!?
