Just the first two of eight pages, but the video offers another look at some of the offerings.
Thanks for checking in.

I know, I know, that’s a mouthful of a title. Sorry, I just had to. Don’t say it out loud and you should be fine…
Yesterday, I ran across startupnation.com‘s book excerpts section.
Lots of wisdom and experience from smart people in compact portions.
If my eyesight and concentration were ‘at one with each other’, I counted 156 different book excerpts.
Other authors include:
Srinivas Rao
Chris Guillebeau
Jen Sincero
Paul Jarvis
Other titles include:
Applied Empathy
Forging An Ironclad Brand
How We Make Stuff Now
The Right It: Why So Many Ideas Fail and How to Make Sure Yours Succeed
Reminder: Don’t forget my suggestion in this post. Record yourself reading aloud ‘good stuff’ like these excerpts and listen to them while rearranging the silverware [yeah, like that’s ever going to happen in my house] or walking the dog [and that happens all too regularly].
A thought…An experiment: You give me the content and I’ll create an mp3 or slide show or video for you. [sidehustlecurator at gmail dot com].
NOTE: I’m not trying to throw shiny objects at you. Just alternative options and ideas from people who’ve ‘been there’.
Thanks for checking in.
This was fun.
Chris Guillebeau streamed this slide show, entitled Money Tree TV: 100s of Side Hustle Ideas–complete with mellow music–on his Money Tree TV channel. He weaves side hustle ideas gleaned from his 1400 podcasts with occasional nuggets of advice and, appropriately so, a few promos of his book, The Money Tree. **
Just a thought: While you may have an entirely different approach to side hustle success, you have to give Chris credit for his versatile and ever-evolving strategies to reach listeners/viewers/readers. He IS a prime model for this niche.
Thanks for visiting. As always, check in with questions and requests at:

Greetings, Side Hustlers. [Heeeyyyyy! Upper case! Aren’t you feeling special right about now? ;->]
Chris Guillebeau, author of The Money Tree, Side Hustle: From Idea to Income in 27 Days, The $100 Startup, etc., and creator of over 1400 consecutive podcasts, also shared his expertise on Periscope.
Five months ago, he posted a session, How to Avoid Getting Stuck.
Skip to the 14:30 mark to listen to him embellish these five suggestions:
[Note: Each of his 30+ minute Periscope sessions also feature a live participant Q. and A. that nails down many of the universal concerns of side hustlers.]

My previous post featuring Sara Blakely’s 50 Rules for Success led me to Evan Carmichael. Yes, I curate. But he…CURATES! And then some.
Pour yourself a cup of coffee, glass of wine, whatever…and cruise through Evan’s YouTube realm, starting with his Top 10 Rules For Success channel.
The image above is just a sampler of what I listened to here, courtesy of Evan Carmichael.
Sara Blakely…very impressive person. Fun to listen to her down-to-earth approaches to success and living life.
It’s Seth Godin’s ebook–the third item down on his ‘free content’ page.
But…can Seth Godin actually write? ;-]
His latest, The Practice, was just released on November 9.
Others:
Reminder! No affiliations here, just wanting to pass along items that I hope will be helpful.
I could go on and on with good stuff from Seth Godin. [And my next post will feature him again.] In fact, he probably wouldn’t be thrilled with my use of the word ‘wisdom’, but hey, years and years of observations and insights will inevitably lead to what I would call ‘wisdom’.
And, yes, I will never win Canva awards for stellar design. In fact, they’d probably prefer I not even suggest I used their tools. Oy.

And now, time for book recommendations…or shameless commercialism…or both. Okay, there are definitely book recommendations…
These seven books are go-to sources of inspiration and valued experience. These are affiliate links which, if you use to preview and buy the product, won’t raise the product’s price and will earn me a commission. At that point, I’ll be that much closer to buying that unclaimed island in the Caribbean. Please don’t ask for the island’s coordinates. It is mine and you can’t have it. ;->
These books cut across so many lines of productivity and accomplishment. Whether you use these links or go elsewhere, get your hands on these.
Yep, I’ve never really spent time looking at online entrepreneurs’ income reports. A lost opportunity to learn. [Challenge: Get past the ‘Geez, I’m getting left in the dust!’ reaction and strap on your thinking cap.]
Here is expert blogger Ryan Robinson’s October income report…
What stands out:
Look for yourself and check out both his earnings and expenses. You may well learn of some new digital tools and pick up hints about Ryan Robinson’s approach and strategies.
