But first things first.I have to decide what I want to achieve so I can pick the right book to help me achieve my goal.

If there’s anything the pandemic has taught me is that I only have one stream of income. And I have experienced that having only a single stream of income can be very risky, it can disappear just like that. Luckily for me it somewhat reappeared too, but it took a huge cut out of my financial buffer.

That needs to be fixed, I have to add new streams of income. So I need a book that helps me to do just that. My goal is to add a stream of income.

There are a few books I can try;

• 48-Hour Start-up: from idea to launch in 1 weekend by Fraser Doherty (4.4 – 101)
• Creativity Rules: Get Ideas Out of Your Head and into the World by Tina Seelig (4.3 – 36)
• The $100 Startup by Chris Guillebeau (4.5 – 2703)
• Side Hustle – From Idea to income in 27 days by Chris Guillebeau (4.5 – 680)
• What if it does work out? How a side hustle can change your life by Susie Moore (4.6 – 144)

When I go through these books then two clearly stand out. The one about launching an idea in just 48 hours from Fraser Doherty looks really appealing to me. But 48 hours seems to be a little too much (or less) for me to handle. The one from Chris Guillebeau, from idea to income in 27 days feels a little more realistic to me.

Let’s start!
