5 Combinations to Find Your Side Hustle

21-Mar-2021
By xweienx

In this day and age, a job is not longer enough for us to have a comfortable retirement. Heck, it might not even be enough for some people to live comfortably right now! Many people have since turned to side hustles, finding secondary and even tertiary sources of income.


However, there are still plenty of people who have yet to take action on their side hustle dream, or people who waste too much time and effort on a side gig that is not meant for them. Today, we're gonna look at 5 different combinations to help you decide what side hustle you should go for:

1. Left & Right Brain Combination

We've all heard that the left brain is more analytical and methodical while the right brain is more creative and artistic. So, if your primary job is more dominant on one side, why not consider a side hustle that fully utilizes the other half of the brain too? For example, if you're a coder by profession, you might have some hidden potential for drawing that you have yet to unlock! Doing so can help us uncover all our talents.


2. Work & Interest Combination

The reality is, many people are in their current line of work not because they want to, but because it can provide better for their lives and their family. So, if you're one of those that "work to live", don't find a side gig that you'll despise too. Instead, work out something from your hobbies and interests so that it doesn't seem like a chore. This is perfect for employees who think that they are always caged up by their jobs.

3. Selling & Consulting / Teaching & Consulting Combination

This combination is suitable for those working in sales, training, or education. Since your primary job exposes you to a particular field, you'll most likely have more expertise on that subject. Therefore, turn this expertise into a second source of income by consulting and giving advice to people. This can be in a form of writing blogs or creating content that is beneficial for the general public and not just the people you face everyday in your job. For example, if you're an experienced insurance agent, you can consider preparing articles about how to improve people's general health.


4. Mental & Physical Combination

If your job requires you to sit in front of the computer all day, juicing out your brains, but you're actually a very active person, then turn that extra energy into extra income! For example, you can attend trainings to be a qualified personal trainer or swimming coach during the weekends! That way, you'll still be able to do what you love and earn money from it.

5. Jack of All Trades Combination

If you think you're doing okay in your job and you don't have any particular interests or hobbies, that's fine! You can always improve on multiple soft skills instead of having a niche skillset. For example, you can practice a little on your copywriting skills, public speaking skills, Microsoft Office skills and so on. That way, not only are you not limited to the type of side gigs you can venture into, you also improve yourself as a whole constantly!


Although side incomes and side gigs are the trend now, it's a bad idea to just dive right in without any thoughts or preparation. It helps to know your own value and what can provide you with maximum income at minimal cost in terms of effort and energy. Side hustles can be a good or bad thing, it all depends on whether it provides you the satisfaction you're looking for.
