Oh man probably the best post in this thread. <3
I know what you mean, unfortunately I'm making a big fat 0 for the time being, I've had some issues in the past and being weak minded or should I say easily distracted I let myself run myself down and lost motivation in the process.
Fortunately that's easy to solve.
if you know english, have/get some copywriting skills, and what are the basics of internet/psychology you can make 100/day easily (not passively of course) and then re-invest in writers, vas, etc and build something that generates passive income.
for the 'active pocket money income', I suggest you to use social medias, forums, ads sites like cl.... You just post useful stuff onto them 10hr/day and here and there a link to your website with aff links in between text. Potentially you can also build a list funneling them trough your website.. Which is much better imho as long you build a good relationship.
remember what I just explained, has no chance of failing aslong you give useful content.. And therefore knows how to write english, do content curation, copywriting, and read something about psycology from the best copywriters books. I can recommend cashvertising. and if you live in a high developed country(thats how they call them, but I would call them 'a country that dev useless shit') you can send letters and calls to small business and offer them from the most basics services like social media management or a wordpress site to managing ads/seo..
just grow a pair and meditate. It'll clean your mind. And everytime you're losing time when you should be working, meditate 20mins and get back to work. Just be consistent and focused. Hope I have not write this short essay for nothing. I want to see you making atleast one hundred a day within 2 weeks.
