There's no "get rich quick." There's no "overnight success." However, this doesn't mean that when you decide to start a business that you're just starting. You could start making new money tomorrow. I was fishing with my son and taught him that you can't catch a fish unless your line is in the water. A truth my dad once taught me. You may have spent years learning a skill or creating a product or service that you just simply haven't thought to monetize. Like leaving a fishing pole on the ground along side the river, but not having your line in the water yet. All you need to create a new stream of income is to make something consumable and offer it at a price that someone will pay. If you're not making offers, you're not making money. Get your line in the water! . Richie Norton
About This Quote

Getting your line in the water is crucial. Meaning, you have to have a product or service that people are willing to pay for, but you can't monetize it unless you get it in front of the customer. But, when you do get your product in front of the customer, you also want to make sure that it is something they are willing to buy. You can make a lot of money by selling something that people don't want.

It would be like selling fish when no one is fishing. To be successful in business, you have to sell what people actually need and want.
