I've challenged myself to make $100K in 100 days (DAY 86) - It’s day 86 of my journey.



**Who am I?**


I’m a Software Engineer living in Serbia, with no prior experience in sales or entrepreneurship.



**What I’ve tried in these 86 days?**


I tried to create my own mobile app, but it went really slow, so I’ve decided to work on it later, not during my challenge - $0.



I’ve created a few digital products (black and white, minimalistic maps) and selling them on Etsy - $4.



I’ve started offering mentoring services for beginner level programmers. That worked pretty well in the beginning, but then it slowed down - $1800.



I’ve started making YouTube videos about my life as a software engineer. It’s going very slow but that’s normal, I guess. It won’t help me with my challenge, but I believe that in a long-term, having (and growing) a YT channel is a good idea. And I simply like making videos - $0.



I’ve found a freelance project where I work as a backend developer, just like my main job. I understand it’s not very entrepreneurial because it’s just a job, however, at this stage it seems like the best option to make some money, because I already have the skill - $6000.



After one of my previous posts, a guy DMed me here on Reddit and asked me if I can do the coding in his new application. We had a conversation, I liked the idea, so I’ve started to work on that project as well. It doesn’t make me any money now but maybe it will in the future - $0.



So in total I’ve made $7804 so far.



**Summary**


As you can see I’m extremely far behind my goal. Roughly in the middle of the challenge it became obvious that I can’t reach $100k in 100 days. I work on 2 full time projects, work on the app, make videos for my YT channel, and sometimes I do mentoring. But as I said it’s probably the best option to make at least some money for my other ideas, so I’m using skills that I already have and learning new ones.



In 14 days the challenge will be over and you will see how badly I screwed up lol.



Thank you for your attention.
