My adventure with Iowa State University began long before I ever unpacked a suitcase in Larch Hall. In fact, the very first time I “visited” the campus, I barely visited it at all. It was more of a joyride with two of my brothers— Tom, and Dave — at a time in our lives when a drive across state lines counted as both exploration and entertainment. I was young, edging into adulthood, and they were all a few steps ahead of me, showing me what freedom looked like. Early in my senior year at high school I had narrowed my college choices to the University of Minnesota in the Twin Cities, Northwestern University in Evanston, IL, the University of Wisconsin in Madison, WI, Cornell University in Ithaca, NY, and Iowa State in Ames, IA. All great engineering schools. This would be my first college trip.

Don't by overwhelmed by the diagram above. Think of an affiliate marketer as a "Connector". Connecting a customer with a solution. The ABS Hub Centric Model is the same model that Uber, Booking.com, Nerdwallet, etc. use to make millions in revenue every year. There is a link below to learn about the details. ABS has a low start-up cost and can be adapted / scaled to whatever product that you are selling. I am currently selling digital products to help other entrepreneurs start their businesses and generate passive income in a done-for-you template.
I started the ABS program a few weeks ago and I'm excited for my journey to add passive income to what I currently earn. If you are looking for a way to generate more income so that it provides you with the freedom to spend time on what matters to you, e.g. family, travel / vacations, humanitarian efforts, etc. than this may be the program for you. This dovetails nicely into our "Creating Your Beautiful Life" series by addressing wealth generation and having multiple sources of income.

Affiliate marketing offers numerous benefits, making it an attractive option for those seeking passive income:

3. Passive Income Potential: Once you’ve set up your affiliate marketing system, it can continue to generate income with minimal ongoing effort. This passive income potential allows you to earn money while you sleep, travel, or focus on other pursuits.
4. Scalability: Affiliate marketing is highly scalable. As you gain experience and refine your strategies, you can expand your efforts to multiple niches, creating multiple streams of income.
5. Diverse Opportunities: The internet offers a vast array of niches and products to promote. This diversity allows you to find affiliate opportunities that align with your interests and expertise.

My Last Week of High School
Most people remember their last week of senior year as a blur of finals, yearbook signatures, and the thrill of freedom just beyond the edge of graduation. I always thought mine would be the same. I pictured a week full of celebration, a little bit of mischief, and a slow fade into summer before heading off to college in the fall. But life had something different in mind for me. My final week as a senior at New Lisbon High School was not about parties, pranks, or planning the future. It was about survival, responsibility, fear, hope, and a kind of growing up that most 18-year-olds never have to face.
