Oh, I'm really sorry if I've come across that way. That's, genuinely, not me at all. So apologies if I've come across like that, I don't know how I managed that. It absolutely wasn't my intention.
I honestly don't have any major expectations or expect anything handed to me on a plate. I'm not quite sure what I said to indicate otherwise, but, again, that's definitely not me in general so I apologise if I've written the wrong thing or come across like that.
No, I just don't want to be telling you lies. There's more than one business out there, so why try and force yourself to do something you know you won't have your heart in, when you could find something that fills a market need but that will also be something you can commit to and give your all. That's all I'm saying. Better to focus on an area the market needs but that you don't have negative feelings around, at least, for me that is true. It's like deliberately finding something you won't be motivated to do, that just doesn't make sense to me, that's all. Not just from a personal perspective, but a business one. It's not just about like, but I do think something you have your heart in is more likely to be a successful, all I can say, for me, I genuinely feel to pursue a business that I would hate, when there are market needs in other areas and industries, wouldn't feel like a good move.
Yes, thank you for that. I tend to come across the ones that charge 50 and 100 dollars, so I'll try and remind myself of all the higher charging ones when I think of pricing. Thank you for your input.

The same one... the reason I ask is because your comments sound a lot like "I will do what I want and want to get paid big time for it" instead of what the book explains, more in the area of "Do what the market asks", based on needs.
But I see you understand the point.
I will leave it at that and allow others to continue working with you on finding value in what you like.
I really like PatrickP's advice. That is a real need.
I know big resume-writing companies charge $300 and $400 to 'help' you with your resume, and it all in reality is a template and a tech writer spends an hour or two plugin your old resume in this template. If you do better than this, at $200 a piece, you should have lots and lots of customer paying you to help you with your short term needs.
