In 2017, I launched Passive Shirt Profits. I knew I was venturing into a new niche that probably wasn't going to be met with instant success like I had with 2 Create a Website. It's a different time now, and I knew I wouldn't have the early Google traffic to carry me along like I did here. Nevertheless, it was the right decision for me at the time, and it also made me realize how I much I need something else in addition to money in order to feel fulfilled with running a website. Pivoting isn't always easy, but sometimes it's necessary and I've had a lot of revelations since that time. In a nutshell, don't be afraid of change!
