Automate your income. Finding the 4HWW “Muse”.

Timothy Ferriss’ book the Four Hour Work Week is a revolution.  If you haven’t read the book yet you should buy it immediately.  One of the main ideas of the book is the idea of creating systems of income automation in order to finally divorce time from income.  In other words, one no longer has to trade a body for money in a modernized form of slavery with twelve bosses driving the labor.  This idea represents freedom for the grossly overworked and underpaid American.  It frees time to do things of value to the person and allows the freedom to decide when and where and how to work.  It displaces the myth that more work is better than productive work.  Ferriss calls these systems “muses”.  I am on a quest to discover my muse and have discovered that it’s not that easy.  It requires a lot of creativity, but I think I have found the muse.  And after the initial testing of the idea, I plan to market it aggressively until the muse has become systematized and automated.  I’v noticed that other 4HWW devotees have struggled with finding a muse as well.  Some of the common barriers include mainly money to either start the muse or to maintain your living expenses while the muse is building.  To be honest, I can’t seem to find a one size fits all formula for the process – there are just too many variables and the process is such a creative endeavor that it requires unique solutions.  Any ideas?  Comment below on the 3 best solutions to finding a muse or ideas for a muse.
