Episode 112 | Don't Burn the Boats Right Away But Start the Side Hustle

Boss It Podcast

28-03-2023 • 15 mins

Many of us mistakenly believe that starting a side hustle while juggling a nine-to-five job is impossible and that we cannot successfully manage both responsibilities at the same time. It is not necessary to burn the boats right away. Keeping your nine-to-five is vital, not just for supporting your business but also as a safety net in case your side hustle or business fails. It's better to have a side hustle than to jump all in when starting a business.

Let me share with you why you start the side hustle:

  1. Side hustles give you an extra income stream different from the one you get from your 9 to 5 job. Hence, even if you run into difficulties with your job, you won't completely lose your source of income.
  2. A side hustle will give you extra income to supplement your income as the cost of living has increased substantially!
  3. Start a side business in an area that piques your interest. You are given the opportunity to do something that brings you joy while also continuously relying on your main source of financial support. The extra income that you earned from a side hustle is just a bonus!
