Some people say the first $10,000 is the hardest because you have no experience, no reputation, and no proof that you can make money.
Others believe the real challenge is reaching your first $100,000, because scaling is a completely different game.

First 10000 was very hard. I spent a lot of working hours for that,

Later, I made more with less hours spent.

That is why experience is important whether you want to earn online or offline.
 
The first $10000 for sure. Because you still don't have experience, you still probably doing everything the most hard and time consuming way, and you just don't know how to handle nothing. Once you get experience, everything goes smother and later is just a matter of time to reach 100k or even 1 mil

First $10k was harder for me. That's the stage where you don't even believe it's possible yet, so you quit on things right before they'd have worked. Once you've hit $10k the $100k is just doing the same thing more times and fixing bottlenecks – it's work, but you already know it's real.
 
So far I made $10, I will let you know once I reach $10k or $100.001 as you mentioned

scaling till 100k-300k is relatively possible(nothing is easy) but beyond that is tricky, because things get saturated beyond that if we dont think out of the box
 
For me, the first dollar was the hardest since I had to convince myself that my service was worth buying.

Every extra digit after that has been progressively easier.
 
The more experience I get, the more I realize that experience leads to money.
In the beginning, you can work 12-14 hours a day and barely make any money.
A couple of years later, you can spend just one hour on a task that used to take you a week and earn several times more.
That's the power of experience.

Hope you reach your goal soon. Also I have to say, this is the first message I've seen from you that doesn't involve jerking off lately.
 
The first $10,000 was the toughest because I had to earn trust, build the right skills, and prove my process.
After that, reaching $100,000+ became a matter of scaling what already worked.
 
I'd say the first $10,000 honestly. Once you figure out what actually works and start building trust with clients, getting to $100,000 becomes more about just scaling and staying consistent from there.
