Many people start off so excited when they see a side hustle opportunity they think will be a good fit for them. They make plans and think about how they’re going to spend their extra cash, or how they’re going to quit their jobs the moment their side hustle takes off.

But before they even get halfway to success, they give up all of a sudden. They make excuses as to why their side hustle isn’t working. They’ll tell themselves that their day job is easier because they get a steady paycheck every month. They’ll try to convince themselves that they’re happier at their day jobs anyway.
