My story of thinking 'I'm too clumsy for a side hustle' over and over again 😭

'I'm too clumsy, maybe a side hustle isn't for me...'

Honestly, I don't know how many times I've thought that 😭💔

Every time I look at social media, I see things like
'I reached 100,000 yen this month!! ✨️'
'Price increase in a few more copies!! ✨️'
So many sparkling words like that keep flowing by.

But in my reality, I work, do chores,
take care of the kids,
and before I know it, the day is over.

Even when I try to start a side hustle, it never seems to last.

I tried affiliate marketing on Rakuten ROOM and Ameba Blog, and I tried making LINE stickers, but I was so bad at it that I gave up.
I can't even use AI well.

I registered for CrowdWorks, but I got exhausted from surveys that barely earned me enough to buy a single piece of cheap candy...

Even when I started thinking, 'Maybe I can do this,' there were so many times I felt depressed because it didn't go well 😖

What was especially tough was
thinking, 'Maybe I'm just not capable of anything.'

Everyone around me seems to be getting results, but I'm just spinning my wheels 🥺
I've been inefficient since I was a student.

'Maybe I'm really not cut out for a side hustle...'
'Maybe it's impossible for a clumsy person like me...'

There were days when I thought like that.

But, I just didn't want to give up.

I don't want to keep telling my children 'later' 😰.

I don't want to work in a way that leaves me too exhausted to smile.

Of course, money is important.

But if I push myself so hard that I lose my peace of mind and my time with my family becomes strained, I don't want to choose that way of working.

That's why I started to think that I wanted to choose and pursue a
'side hustle that is healthy and can be continued while being kind to my family' 😭

Not by getting involved in shady side hustles or using methods that wear down my spirit.

It doesn't have to be about making a huge amount of money.

Being able to buy a new sweet at the convenience store,
being able to say to my child with a smile, 'You can pick one snack you like 💕,'
or being able to eat out with my family once in a while.

I wanted to cherish those little moments of happiness 😊🌷

What I am able to continue now is note.

note is a place where
even if you aren't good at speaking,
even if you are clumsy,
you can express yourself in your own words 🥹💓

While managing several accounts and
having to shut some down,

'Nobody is reading this at all...'
'Maybe I'm not cut out for this either...'

There were days when I thought exactly that.

But,

'My clumsy experiences might be useful to someone else who is working hard at their job, raising children, and doing housework just like me.'

I can tell that my feelings changed just a little bit once I started thinking that way 🥹

I don't think side hustles are only for people who are exceptionally talented.

Even if you take the long way around,
even if you make mistakes,
it's fine to find what works for you little by little.

That is why I want to use the knowledge, experience, and skills I gained from managing multiple accounts to
create a place where I can work hard together
with moms and dads who are struggling just like I was.
I want to build that.

A side hustle
isn't just about making money.

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

Because I believe it is also an option
to cherish yourself and your family.

If there is anyone out there right now thinking, 'Maybe this isn't for me'

It's okay!! 😌💓

Even if you're clumsy, even if you take the long way around,
it's fine to just move forward little by little.

I, who made a mess of things with my failures,
am now able to monetize on a separate account... 🥹

Once you get the hang of how to do it, the path will open up... 😌✨️

I've explained it in a way that's easy to understand, even for clumsy people like me 😊👍

I've prepared plenty of explanatory images 😉👍

I've also made sure it's easy on the eyes 😉👍

I'm still on my journey too!! 🔥✨️
I'll do my best while cherishing my family...!! 🔥✨️

Even though my Threads account got banned 😚💓 (lol)

As of the time of this note post, for the search term 'account ban',
these two notes have reached the top
out of about 500 search results, which is both something to be grateful for and a bit sad 🤣💓

It's a search term with a small sample size, but that's okay 💓
Thank you very much (*^^*)🌸
