Are you confronted with the question of how to earn extra cash? The answer is obvious: “start a side business or work extra hours.” But how is this even possible with the continuous surge in COVID-19 numbers and its crippling effect on businesses? With 1 in every 4 Americans expected to work from home in 2021, making extra money online has generated much interest as many individuals may be restricted to their homes' confines. If you are ready to earn some extra income while online, here are some proven ideas worth exploring. 1. Start a YouTube Channel Image Credit Making video content for YouTube is a popular pastime for many people. Most people can make a recording with a top-notch camera or just your smartphone. What's more, your video can be just about anything – gaming, sports, crypto, makeup, or just keeping up with someone's everyday life or vlogging. The prospects are unlimited. You will need to spend time creating videos and also go through editing if necessary. After completion, you upload the video to the YouTube platform and earn automated revenue for a long while. You earn income from Google ads displayed on your recordings. 2. Sell Your Photos Online Like millennials, are you crazy about your photography? If yes, then you have an excellent source to make some income with your photos. Websites like iStockphoto and Shutterstock will pay you to post your pictures on their platforms. You get paid a fixed amount or rate anytime a client purchases your photographs. You can make a good deal of cash with a decent portfolio. The entire process is automated, so you only have to post your photos. This shouldn't be difficult. 3. Trade Your Products Online While creating your items to trade online can seem a broad subject, you can sell pretty much everything. You can make your products or have them delivered economically from countries like China, although the former promises better profit margins, flexibility, and enhanced sales prospects. You can develop your website where people can purchase your items or place them on big market platforms like Amazon, which has more immense sales prospects. Are you considering buying from other local producers? You can save money on UPS shipping rates to take care of your orders and save you time for other tasks. 4. Create an App Image Credit Creating a mobile application is an excellent approach to investing your time and resources to rake in returns over the long haul. Your app could be a game or an app that helps users perform daily tasks they find challenging or difficult. Once you go public with your app, users can download and begin to earn either from the download or displaying ads. According to statistics, the two primary app markets: iOS and android, generated a whopping $31.9 billion in mobile app revenues from in-app purchases, subscriptions, and app purchases in the 2020 last quarter alone. Although passive income earning trends are continually changing, there is always one to suit your skill and lifestyle. The only challenge is the enormous competition since the virtual market is becoming saturated with many people working online. Yet, passive income online is worth considering as a side gig.

Crisis and the future of work are now intertwined. And, the effects of climate change and the pandemic altered the work that we do and hope to do. During each day, practically everyone in the workforce addresses issues. Often, these are time and place-related included in the job spec. For instance: a marketing manager's task is in overcoming customer loyalty erosion. However, in the first seven months of 2021, the work we do became existential. With fires on the West Coast, and the Covid-19 Delta variant spreading like wildfire, problems and crises reached our job specs and workplaces. And, to that end, the workplace endures a new crisis: The Great Resignation. During 2020 and 2021, women dropped out of the workforce, often because they could not secure childcare. And many others quit knowing that a return to the co-location meant also a return of toxicity and incivility. Perhaps the biggest crisis of all originates with hiring manager who seek to restore workplace life to pre-pandemic conditions. Accordingly, we must strive for truly intentional workplace practices. Hiring managers must be cognizant of the issues and problems their their hired talent endure on the job so that things don't turn critical like an out-of-control forest fire. Also in this episode: The story of crisis and the future of work is also told through a personal financial frame. And the way that we handle personal finances affects our opportunities to do the future work of our dreams. People who budget well and intentionally build wealth have more future work choices than those who don't put in the time. Absent well-tended financial resources, some are left to do work that keeps them afloat, but offers no positive meaning. Our guest, Angela Anderson, helps people build wealth so that they can live their dreams and do meaningful work. Full interview begins at 8:25 We must no accept that crisis and the future of work are now intertwined.

Future of work podcaster Dan Smolen asks: do our best days lie ahead? Lately, some workplace observers have taken me to task for the tagline of this podcast: our best days lie ahead. With pandemic restrictions eased, we are in the midst of the biggest workforce and workplace disruption in over 100 years. Now, a career professional must come to an understanding of "new normal," whether they office at home, remotely from another venue, at a traditional co-location, or at a hybrid combination of places. Hiring managers from Fortune 100 CEOs to small business operators must strive for normality, to get their enterprises humming again. However, career professionals who advocate for work as part of the day (and not the day); who drive agility and flexibility, and; who lead future of work goals will help all of us achieve better, more productive, and happier lives during work and non-work hours. Revolutions are never pretty. But when we happy warriors render future of work goals present, then our best days lie ahead. This, I am certain. Also in this episode: As the CEO of Realized Worth, Angela Parker leads an organization that inspires professionals at AT&T, Deloitte, Microsoft, Walmart and other companies with meaningful volunteer program engagements.

Oftentimes, volunteerism gets them there. In this episode, Angela describes: Realized Worth's unique value proposition and mission. Starts at 6:36 How the pandemic changed volunteerism. Starts at 8:28 The role of skill in driving volunteer programs. Starts at 11:28 Ways that volunteerism helps to retain workforce members.

A study published in the Science Translational Medicine suggests that cholesterol, a common culprit in heart disease, plays a special role in raising risk for people with sleep apnea.Dr. Klar Yaggi, a heart and sleep medicine physician at Yale School of Medicine explains why there are other reasons why sleep apnea could be bad for heart health. "Sleep apnea causes these very transient awakenings, most of the time without the patients realizing they are being woken up. Each of those awakenings is like a jolt of adrenaline," Yaggi says. Over time, those episodes can cause clots to form in blood vessels and lead to heart attacks.Dr. Atul Malhotra, a heart and sleep medicine physician at University of California, San Diego School of Medicine explored the science as to why sleep apnea can lead to cardiovascular risk. He concludes that it is the inflammation caused by sleep apnea that can cause heart attacks.Though statins lower cholesterol by lowering harmful inflammation in blood vessels that can lead to cardiovascular diseases, taking statins won't stop people from choking in their sleep. Malhotra says "If you give somebody a statin to prevent sleep apnea complications, they'll still have fragmented sleep, poor quality of life, and risk for motor vehicle accidents.”And though a CPAP machine and shedding excess weight can be effective treatment for relieving sleep apnea there is another alternative. Sleep apnea occurs when there is a physical blockage in the upper airway preventing air from entering the lungs. Tooth removal and a high-arch palate in the mouth can limit the space for the tongue to relax naturally in the mouth.Airway and Sleep group employs techniques like rapid maxillary expansion which is capable of increasing the maxillary arch and widening the mouth to allow the space for the tongue to rest comfortably in the mouth. Rapid maxillary expansion, or the DOME, Distraction Osteogenesis Maxillary Expansion technique widens a high-arch palate with associated nasal obstruction while improving symptoms of OSA and has proven to improve quality of sleep for obstructive sleep apnea sufferers.Studies have shown significant improvement in patients with narrow maxilla and nasal floor with decreases in AHI (or Apnea-Hypopnea Index) scores after being treated with DOME or Rapid Maxillary Expansion. Patients also see an increase in REM sleep.If you have high cholesterol and have symptoms of sleep apnea, contact Airway and Sleep Group at 703-646-9950 for a diagnostic consultation.Resource: https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2016/01/06/462152276/cholesterol-provide-a-clue-about-heart-risks-from-sleep-apnea#:~:text=iStockphoto-,Cholesterol%20may%20play%20a%20special%20role%20in%20raising%20the%20risk,in%20people%20with%20sleep%20apnea.&text=Soon%20after%20many%20people%20fall,airway%20constricts%20and%20chokes%20them.

Strategize for your future work success to find and do the work of your dreams. Paired with dreams, exploration, and action, strategy helps us to achieve career success. These four components weave together like DNA, in countless combinations, to create a pathway for people to seek and do meaningful work. In this episode, Dan Smolen recalls an experience from his junior year of college. Back then, he engaged with Associate Professor of Advertising Howard Cogan. Howard was also a successful advertising executive who wrote, voiced, and produced radio commercials. As Dan's mentor, Howard encouraged Dan to pursue opportunities in a channel of advertising agency work called direct marketing. Dan recalls Howard's sage advice to strategize for future work success: "You're going too need to get strategic about your career. [It looks like] you may not find your opportunity on the agency side quickly. But, perhaps you can find an entry-level assignment that's close enough and allows you to develop direct marketing skills and talents that you will need in agency life." Two years into that first role, Dan had proven himself to be an on-the-job success. And the skill and experience he gained helped him land a dream agency assignment in Minneapolis/St. Paul. He was just 24 years old. Also in this episode: Dan speaks with Rich Gee of Rich Gee High Performance Coaching.

The new year and the pandemic inform how we use space to live and work. It turns out that one good thing happened in 2020. Because we sheltered in place for weeks and months, we discovered that we could work successfully from home or in a hybrid combination of traditional and untraditional work spaces. In 2021, how we use space to live and work will be entirely up to us. During the early pandemic months, millions of people left big cities for anywhere else. They bought homes in suburbs, exurbs, and rural communities. What is more, they are reimagining their new places as professionally designed TV studios for Zoom sessions. By living and working remotely, people slashed their monthly out-of-pocket commuting costs. The hours of time recovered by not commuting provided people opportunities to engage with family members, rest, or increase their productivity. Yes, in 2020, people became more productive on the job. In the past 12 months, animal shelters emptied as people adopted dogs and cats. Surely, the happiest heartbeats in the home belong to our new furry family members. Surely, we are in, or are about to enter, the worst part of the Covid pandemic. During the next weeks and months, we will lose more people, everyday, than died on 9/11. And Covid will, for the foreseeable future, be our leading cause of death. But when we get through Covid, we will be a stronger, more agile, and happier workforce. And that is because we will have more say in the work that we do and our space to live and work.

Under any circumstance, a pivot for a future of work podcast is jarring. But for Dan Smolen, making a sudden pivot for his podcast, to a new identity, was absolutely necessary. "Now, everything seemed fine until early September 2020 when we discovered that something was amiss. The Tightrope Podcast had inexplicably disappeared from the web and social media. What happened?" The sudden pivot for a future of work podcast is now complete. Today, we debut The Dan Smolen Podcast. Some back-story: One week ago today, on October 2, 2020, we discovered that well-known academic and social media pundit Dr. Cornel West launched "The Tight Rope Podcast." Surprisingly, his podcast [with the same name as ours] redirected our listeners and prospects to his podcast hosting destinations. What is more, Dr. West aggressively promoted his podcast episodes to over 750,000 followers across social media; his podcasting campaign kicked into high gear during the first week of September 2020. Looking back, it all makes sense as to why our listenership fell off of the tightrope. We were astonished by our discovery. And we knew that we had to pivot our future of work podcast quickly to a new brand identity. The re-branded Dan Smolen Podcast focuses on future of work and meaningful work topics. We will host experts in business, academia, public service, and workforce to benefit our future of work and meaningful work journeys. Looking forward, we will "real-time reimagine" how the future of work presents in our lives. And right off the bat, we will tackle challenging issues that keep us up at night, like hybrid work arrangements and policies, so that we thrive in the face of sudden change and adversity. The best minds in branding say that the process of re-branding a product, a service, or a podcast should take time. A re-brand should carefully consider the full array strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats to the podcast and its community. But in our case, we had no time for careful and deliberate processing. Our re-brand from The Tightrope had to happen immediately. In fact, the sudden pivot for [our] future of work podcast happened in less than seven days. Now, as The Dan Smolen Podcast, we know that our best days lie ahead. Please join us each week on this podcast for new episodes and an amazing journey to a future of work doing meaningful work.

Public relations executive Aimee Stern believes that bravery and meaningful work are purposely intertwined. “When you heard the process that they went through to get there, it was painful and it was my process, too.

And, it all came down really to the biggest problem people have which is self-doubt.” By all measures, Aimee Stern was a successful executive. Her business portfolio was profitable and scaling. Regrettably, her high quality work often benefitted people she didn't respect. That's when she channeled bravery from within to do good and do well in her professional career.
