I am Lost [Help]

[zoldic]

Hello guys, I was introduced to the idea of making money online when i was 18 years old (now, I am 25 years old). I started browsing different forums and watched hundreds of YouTube videos. I grasped information about drop shipping, Affiliate marketing, freelancing, programming, trading,etc... However, I never started a solid online business nor meet any success with an online side hustle.

Brief about me:
- I am 25 years old, I work as a mechanical engineer in the oil and gas industry.
- Average monthly income 650 - 800$ (I live in a third world country)
- I have no dept and i have my own house.
- Skills: I think that I have no particular skill that can make me money right now.

Goal: I want to earn 1000$/ month throw an online side hustle.

what I can invest: 3 hours every day and around 300$ monthly, I am open to learn anything or any skill.

Can someone draw a path for me?

Hey,

The web has a lot of incredible options to make money and we are tempted to every exciting new thing without sticking to one. This is a real struggle and a common one, so be easy on yourself.

I suggest you pick a skill you are interested in and open an accountability/journey thread. And about how this might help you, it would reveal the reasons for your lack of growth, you will have the option to mold and change it if you wish to. You can then see if you really want this Goal.

I would also suggest you replace the $1000 goal with a skill(a value you can provide).

Answered well

You have enlisted a lot of things, focus one thing at a time.

mechanical engineer in the oil and gas industry.

And :-

3 hours every day and around 300$ monthly

Start a Youtube channel related to mechanical something(s), machines, engineering, oil & gas, etc. Gradually you will get more curious as you create & upload a few videos, as to how you can make the vidoes more appealing and you will self-learn, just keep uploading videos, learning along the way as to how to make the videos more appealing, gradually grow your channel and you could get approached by brands to sponsor your videos, etc. After a few months of starting, US$300 / month from Youtube is quite possible.

You are at the right place. This place is filled with highly motivated, disciplined, and skilled people.
When I first came here, I was lost too and in the same position as you.
Read my intro here:
https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/introduction-first-journey.1317865/
When I started, I didn't even have $300 to invest per month. But you are in a better position.
I chose writing as a skill to develop. I am not a pro or native but an average writer from a third-world country (India).
But I am consistent with learning and upskilling myself.

So here is my advice. Choose a skill that interests you.
Go to Fiverr and see the category bar. There are so many services to provide. Choose one.
If you're thinking about how to choose the best one. Try a few. Watch youtube videos. read articles about them.
No need to purchase any course. Everything is available on the internet for free.

Once you think you are somewhat good at the skill (after a month or two). Start providing that service for free.
Once people say, they are happy with your service, you're ready to launch your service business.

Simple!
