Over and over again, affiliate marketers asked about getting out from the crazy writer’s block.
My answer is simple: Sunlight.
Whenever I’m trying to brainstorm for profitable affiliate niche ideas, I try to stay in open areas. I found out that this helps a lot as the open sky gives me a lot of crazy ideas.

I am not saying that you’ll 100% get an awesome idea that generates 6-figures monthly when you are under the sun, but it certainly helps me to get the much needed:
Clarity
Focus
Confidence
Self-trust
The most critical part of soaking up sunlight and staying in the open is to disconnect yourself from any forms of technology. No phones and tablets. The only leeway you will ever get would be your fitness smartwatch or tracker.

It is the time of the year again and 2013 is coming to an end. Basically, hours left to celebrate the new and upcoming year 2014.
As a recap, I started this blog back in May 2013 and it was great. Honestly, great could possible an understatement.
I was basically known for my crazy case studies, controversial comparisons and super long blog posts.
As for the record, I do get tons of email from corporate companies complaining about my blog post as I did no-BS reviews on them. Some even offered me to re-review their product with test runs etc. Thank you for that.
I believe I was also known for my absent-minded when it comes to blog designs. Within 6 months, I changed my blog theme nearly a dozen time and thank you to all of you to have taken the effort to bear with me. Yes, put the blame on Genesis Framework 🙂
Along the way, I was lucky to make some of my posts went (some sort) viral and I really appreciate that. Some of my favorite posts are:
In terms of affiliate marketing, I consider myself extremely lucky. I managed to tweak certain parts of affiliate marketing strategies and landed myself constant affiliate earnings of at least $500 per month. Pretty sweet for a decent blog.
Also, my paid services such as SEO and social media are also moving to third gear and funding me a decent amount of income too. Read more about it here.
Of course, the downside is that I am spending around 18 hours in front of the computer or laptop. Even my optician had advised me to reduce the usage of computer and these technological stuffs or I am asking for trouble.
Yeah right! <- Okay, I am just a hard headed dude.
