Wording explained: Profitable

Profit-able.

Something that is able to make a profit


I love this word - it has always hold my imagination. I have never been about making lots of money - but I've always been about trying to find a profit in anything I get my hands on. Leverage what you are doing - so you can make something profit-able.

In today's time it seems to be more possible to make something you love doing profitable. Well - that's what every other 'self-publish'-guru tells us. But don't be deceived! Not EVERYTHING you do is profitable. If you love watching re-runs of reality shows, I've yet to discover how you could make that profitable. The trick is to find something you are/love doing - and then find elements in it that could benefit others.

Step 1: What is it you are/love doing most of your time?
Step 2: What is it you are doing that connects to others around you?
Step 3: How can what you are doing benefits others around you? Is there something you know that can bring value to others? Could it be amusing? Would it encourage somebody?
Step 4: Are you willing to invest some time in sharing what you know, so it can benefit others?
Step 5: If you could let somebody pay for the things you offer - how would that look like?

I would love to think along with you - right here on the blog - or privately in an email -

Lets build something profitable together.
