Do You Love Your Niche?

I've noticed a few questions at Wealthy Affiliate recently where people have asked, "What niche should I choose"? There's no shortage of great advice out there from members of our wonderful Wealthy Affiliate family, but look at this quote from Steve Jobs.

"Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it".

If you need a reminder, this amazing man was an American business magnate, entrepreneur, industrial designer, investor, and media proprietor who sadly died from pancreatic cancer in 2011. Perhaps most commonly remembered as co-founder of Apple and being the guy who brought Apple back from near bankruptcy in 1997.

". . . the only way to do great work is to love what you do".

While there has been a few glitches on my journey when I've not loved what I've been doing, I notice that Jobs was absolutely right. Where I thrived and found success, I always loved what I was doing. It gave me a buzz, energy, enthusiasm and commitment. Getting out there and doing it was a pleasure.

Here at Wealthy Affiliate and my related projects it is no different. One of my niches puts the wind beneath my wings and I Love every aspect of it even though it throws challenges that sometimes try to stop me in my tracks occasionally. It's all part of what makes it so special and nothing will change how I feel about it. Sitting down to work at that niche is a thrill and I learn something every day.

I have two other niches on the back-burner calling out to be released and that is exciting. Though, the time isn't right yet, they will have to wait awhile. I don't want to dilute my output by taking on too much too soon. Not good for me or my potential clients and customers.

So, in response to anybody who is struggling to find a niche:

What's your passion?

You don't need to be an expert yet because passion and loving what you do will get you there.

Happy Weekend

Steve

It is important to find a niche that we are passionate about in order to go deeper. Many thanks Steve

Yes, Claudio, passion is crucial ;-)

Winds may blow and storms may fall but the love keeps me going....Thanks for a great post.

Thanks Maggie for sharing the love. Steve

Your passion is what you think about the first thing upon waking up... take a week and write down what your first thoughts are ... at the end of a week you’ll see a pattern to what you are passionate about ...
Love what you do and what you love will love you back

Thanks Matt. Happy Weekend, Steve

Too true Steve. I love my writing, but haven't totally figured out how I want to monetize it yet! Thanks for the inspiration!

Jeff

Hi Jeff, funnily enough I've been thinking about my writing too. Specifically two books I published with a publisher who doesn't help at all with marketing. I have a 3rd book that I've finished editing and I'm thinking about serializing them on a website and monetizing by reviewing other books.....this is one of the niches I mentioned. Always happy to chat if you want to. Steve

Thank you Steve. I might PM you later with some questions!

Jeff
