I need career advice
Every time I try to open this laptop, it gets stuck and it makes me so frustrated. My only goal right now is to buy a laptop, pay my room rent and cover my college fees.
I like to write once in a while as a note to myself and I do it simply for fun. Specifically on X and Substack. I do all of this simply for the love of the game.
Right now, this is all I can offer to the world and I'm also working on my tech skills. But before I get there, I want to figure out how I can monetize my writing skills and the stuff I do.
I have 100+ subscribers on Substack, but unfortunately, I can't turn on the paid subscription feature because of a Stripe issue. Also, I have 400+ followers on X. Also, I made a Buy Me a Momo account, I thankfully got $10 in support from my followers.
I want to leverage these skills. I was looking for a job but didn't find a part time one and I'm thinking about working for a few months in Big Mart. The timing would be around 2 PM to 10 PM, but it'll take up a huge amount of my time.
I'd genuinely appreciate any suggestions, advice or ideas on how I can turn what I'm already doing into something. Thank you.
