One of my 50 Goals this year was to create and maintain a Grand Tally for my project. And it’s done!
Why a Grand Tally? Isn’t this a bit disheartening, since I am not allowed to work for two years minimum? Well, no. I am chomping at the bit, I won’t lie, but I also accept that I have to work within this set of rules where I won’t earn any money with my project in that timeframe.
So I’m making this a game. And I’m using it for transparency.
How many people, like me, wonder how they’re going to make money with their art? Well, I have two years to build up my assets. Two years working toward my goal to one day be able to live on my earnings.
It will be fun to make it a zero-to-income, maybe, hopefully, a rags-to-riches challenge. In two years, I will have to face the cost of building my project, and assess if my bet that I will earn this money back is realistic or not.
I am not going to be hyper frugal, but I am not going to spend all willy-nilly either. I will use available funds to set myself up for success, mostly learning-wise.
Do you keep a Grand Tally for your project? If not, how do you know when it becomes profitable? Let me know in the comments.
