I typically just go for it rather than plan too much ahead. If it works, it works. If it doesn’t then I would have only lost my time..Yet I have been earning more than $1K in alternative income/month since November..

Great checklist to keep ideas “on track”.

99% of them are not worth it if they don’t pass this test.

You can also test out an idea by writing an article about the same topic and putting it on eHow or any other content site. If your article gets a lot of traffic, it might be something people are looking for.

At the end there, I think you mean “if you can answer yes to questions 1, 3 and 5 and ‘no’ to questions 2 and 4, you are setting yourself for a great online passive income lifestyle.” LOL.

Your points are taken. My favorite is that we shouldn’t be working harder the more successful we become. All the hard work should have been put in at the beginning.

Personally, I am trying to maintain a full time blog and a full time career while my husband is deployed. My goal is to do the hard work on my site before he comes home. Hopefully, by then some of my busyness will have paid off.

Pat - I think point #5 is so important. If you are not passionate about a passive income stream or any other type of business idea, you are more likely to get bored and eventually fail. pfincome´s last blog post..3 Personal Motivation Tips to Build Passive Income
