I also had my full address before and realized it wasn't safe so I only now have my town and zipcode instead. I also added new skills I had learned from newer jobs

I stay motivated during repetitive tasks by changing my work environment from time to time; for instance, if I don't feel like being indoors, I'll sit on my balcony and do my work. I also set deadlines for everything on my calendar and planner; this way, I can keep track of everything. Lastly, I remind myself it's okay to take breaks to let my mind rest before returning to work. During my 30-minute breaks, I'll usually walk on the treadmill or eat lunch.

People can then buy your course. An idea I had to sell a course would be beginners photoshopping. I know how to use software like adobe and picsart so I could sell cheap courses for beginners that want to learn photoshop. I think this is a great way to educate others and also make an income on the side. I also wonder if workout guides would be considered a course because I've made a couple of nutrition and fitness guides myself.

Today at Techie Youth I learned the importance of making connections. It is important to have a good social and network circle. This will allow you to have greater opportunities in the future. Especially if you're applying to jobs. Having a reliable social circle also keeps your mental health good as you have people you can trust and spend time with. It is important to socialize and engage in conversation therefore human interaction is important. You can start making connections from a very young age but during college, it is important to get close to your peers and mentors.

Today at techie youth I learned how you can make a profit by selling your art online. You first have to make yourself and your work is known which you can do for free with social media. Nowadays a lot of creates have gotten famous from apps like TikTok. I learned that there are multiple websites like Etsy, Society6, Turningart, and many more. You don't necessarily have to be selling paintings or drawings. On sites like Society6, you can even sell tote bags, pillowcases, curtains, etc. Meanwhile, on Etsy, you can sell crafts, jewelry, and even homemade skin care. Art comes in so many forms, you can provide freelancing work like photography or baking. I enjoy arts and crafts and often find myself trying new things. Sometimes I'll get into jewelry making or making essential oils. One thing I love is baking, I've always thought about selling my baked goods once I get even better so now it is definitely something I will consider. On a website like Shopify, you can sell just about anything because you can personalize it to your liking and make it your website.

Today I learned the importance of Linkedin. It is a professional social networking website that allows you to build and engage your network. You can post your previous work experience and your resume on your profile. You can also post your skills and write a summary about yourself for recruiters and jobs to see. Moreover, you are able to search and apply to all types of positions on Linkedin by simply searching for job postings in your area. I created my Linkedin profile and updated it because I never really used it before. However, after learning about all the benefits Linkedin has to offer I decided to dedicate more time to building my profile. I will do so by connecting with more people and applying to more jobs and as well as fixing up my profile more to make it look more professional.

First, you can get seasonal work at the place you're visiting for instance you can work at a hotel or local restaurant. Sometimes they will also provide you with a place to live in.

You can work with a company like a data entry job or even do freelancing with websites like skillshare where people can your services. However you can also work for a company that makes you travel, for example, you might have to travel to make brochures or travel guides. If you're a good writer, this is a good position.

I also aspire to travel while in school like a study abroad program.

Today at Techie Youth I learned how to use Wix which allows you to make your own HTML website or mobile site. There are a bunch of free templates and you can make your own web domain using Wix. However, there are other price options that allow you to advertisements, and logos and use the various apps they offer. I've tried using the website while watching the tutorial and used a free template. I think Wix is a great way for new business owners to run their site. I got to change the color and images in the template and then add frames and quotes. As someone who isn't very tech-savvy, I can see myself using Wix if I were to ever run a business. Something I've been considering is selling workout guides and nutrition guides because I'm really interested in fitness and food.

If not, it is more likely to fail. Moreover, he also mentioned that you should always tell people about your business ideas to get feedback. Especially people you trust and know can give you valuable advice.

After all of that, you can finally write out a business plan.

To be a good leader, you have to be self-aware and ethical-minded. You have to be honest and learn to take feedback as there is always room to improve. Moreover, Encourage and help others to grow as well. I also learned that you need to connect with your team members, which I agree with. If you truly care and get to know your team personally, this will build a stronger relationship and possibly motivate them to work harder.

I believe this is a good trait to have because your employers will treat you with the same respect you show them. Moving on, one of the videos I watched also mentioned appearing presentable. He joked about having good breath and hygiene. This is true; you want to show up at your job looking excellent and tidy.

Overall I've learned what it takes to be a good leader and how to become a good leader.
