I will be traveling to Manila tomorrow because I will be attending a couple of events to support fellow travel bloggers. Aside from that, I figured I’ll maximize the time that I’ll be there to interview other people for my podcast sessions. I’ve already confirmed a few people and they’re willing enough to support me with this project which is what I’m really happy about.

I’m thinking of getting a new laptop. Something that’s lighter and more compact as I use it for my traveling needs. I carry a mobile device with me almost everywhere I go to keep updated with my accounts online. It’s become a vital part of my everyday routine that it’s one of more valuable items in my life. It’s a good investment anyway, not something I do out of spite. Did I mention that I bought my laptop thru the money that I earned out of blogging? Indeed it’s a sweet deal because I’m slowly turning my passion (blogging) into my profession. Or even just a sideline for now.

I reapplied for a Unionbank EON card account in order to withdraw funds for my online ventures a breeze when it comes to my Paypal earnings. I realized that withdrawing from my bank account is also a good option but I’ve tried a number of banks and there’s always a processing fee whenever I get transfer my funds from my Paypal to the bank. Minimum would be around 3 dollars per transaction. If I withdraw on a regular basis, that’s already big savings on my end.

With my working in a Business Process Outsourcing industry and my freelance job, not to mention other blogging opportunities, things are turning out for the better. The mess that I put myself in is slowly moving away and I’m glad that somehow, I’m able to turn things around with the way I’m handling my cash flow.

My apologies. I realize I haven’t really updated this blog as much as I hoped. I planned on sharing more tips on the things I’ve done the past few days to earn more money online. But I’m at a loss cause I haven’t been really earning a lot.

I’ve about 5 niche sites as I’m typing this. Only a couple are already established and the rest are just set up. So far, the earnings thru Ads are not really driving me a lot of money – although there are some. But it’s more of my fault.

A couple of colleagues and I were talking about investments over lunch. Seems that I’ve been left behind as I haven’t really invested on anything as I’m still paying for a number of debts and loans at this time. I may have developed some money saving trips especially for different purposes but I’ve actually started applying them only in the middle part of the project. I wish I knew about these techniques earlier as I’ve been meaning to live independently in the near future.

I’ve been reading Pat Flynn’s blog the past couple of days. The site’s packed with useful information and my mind is just too receptive to absorb all the content that’s been provided.

I thought I had it, but then issues has popped up which left my niche blogging to a state of temporary stagnation. Until I’ll be able to find a resolution, I don’t think I’ll be able to post new blog articles.

In my room, I have a bulletin board facing my bed so I can track down the goals and things I need to accomplish within a certain period of time. This has been an effective tool for me so I can truly achieve goals that I’ve set.
