Training to Earn 5K

Swagbucks! Your kidding right? No, absolutely not. I didn't say I was going to earn 15K in 90 days by doing swagbucks offers and surveys. I guess I should be more clear. Swagbucks is a way to earn items including money for free. 100% free. No credit cards or debit cards needed or required. I plan to put the money I earn towards other endeavors that will help me get to the 90 day goal.

I like to think of swagbucks as a training tool. While I'm earning I'm creating a workers mentality. Everyday I wake up and I hit my daily goal of swagbucks to earn in order to get a paypal payout. This helps me get into the mindframe that in order to earn money you must work everyday. If you've ever heard of TINSTAFL then you know there is no such thing as a free lunch. Which means that you have to work for things you desire and/or want most out of life. Please understand that it truly does take money to make money. But first we must earn money and invest it in ourselves. Earning swagbucks is a way to show yourself that you are worth the investment to earn 15K.

Success is a mindset that one must have in order to complete this challenge. Within the next week my goal is to have earned $40 from Swagbucks.com alone. That is a weeks pay for someone who has not had any income in a very long time. What am I going to do with it when I'm done? Just you wait and see. However, I will tell you now that I am not going to spend it on nonsense.

Back to the title, Training to Earn 5K. I am setting an initial goal of 5K in 28 days. Its very ambitious I know but so is my goal at the end of the 90 days. I guess you can say that on average I would like to earn 5K/ month. I am training to get myself into a self employed workers mindset. I am training to earn slowly and progressively.

I am an average out of shape person. If I decided one day to say, "Hey I think I'm gonna run a half marathon today." What do you think would happen? .... I probably wouldn't even make it a quarter of the way through the race before collapsing. If I want to train to run a half marathon I have to set a schedule to work on getting to that goal. This is much the same with earning money.

It is not okay to say hey I'm your average slum Jane or Joe and I'm gonna make 5K today. Life doesn't work that way it would be great if it did, but it doesn't. Whatever means you would try to obtain it in a day  9 times out of 10 will not work out well for you unless you've been training to earn 5K in a day. I know its cliche, but slow and steady wins the race.

So I am officially in training and more than half way done with step 1 of my 90 day challenge. Step 1 of my challenge is to earn the initial amount of swagbucks for a paypal payout. Sometimes with swagbucks if you work diligently there are other rewards along the way of completing your goals.I think that is also true with life. Sometimes if you work diligently there are other rewards along the way to completing your goals.

See you tomorrow,
