First, you must establish that you are your greatest asset. The hours put into your growth, through experiences and lessons learned have made you valuable beyond measures. Once that is established, you must figure out how to “convert that asset, into cash or a form easily converted into cash”. Your talents and expertise in a given field, industry or discipline are of value. If these talents or disciplines are synonyms with your passion, you are that much closer to the end goal of monetizing your dreams.
