I’m sure you’ve heard the term “quiet quitting” before. And if you haven’t, lucky for you, I’m about to explain it! Quiet quitting is a new trend that helps people find their passion and share it with others. It’s like having your own side hustle without all the stress of actually running an actual business. In this article, we’ll discuss what quiet quitting is, how it works and why starting a side hustle or doing something creative can be so beneficial for your health and happiness.
Quiet quitting is a new trend going around on TikTok. However, it’s not actually a new trend at all—it has been around for decades and was popularized in the 1970s by Richard Hackman with his book Work Redesign. Quiet quitting is simply a way to quit your job quietly, without causing conflict or making any fuss.
Quiet Quitting is a new trend. Or it’s not a new trend at all, depending on how you look at it.
In his book “Work Redesign,” Richard Hackman says that Quiet Quitting is a new trend that started in the 1970s and has been growing ever since. He cites several examples of quiet quitting from his own experience as an organizational psychologist and offers guidance for managers who want to help their employees find more meaningful work, whether or not they’re planning on leaving the company altogether.
If you are feeling the urge to quit, but want to improve your situation first, starting a side hustle can be a good way to do that.
Side hustles are often an important part of our lives because they can help us earn extra cash. They can also be good for learning new skills or becoming more productive in our day jobs. In some cases, side hustles may even provide an opportunity for personal growth or self-discovery—something that is often lacking in traditional employment opportunities.
Start a blog to focus on side hustle
Even if you don’t have the time or money to start your own business, you can still make some extra cash by starting a blog. Bloggers make money from a variety of sources including affiliate marketing, advertising and selling their own products/services.
- Affiliate Marketing – Affiliate marketing means you make residual income from someone else’s product or service. For example, this blogger makes over $1 million a year with affiliate marketing and blogging.
- Advertising – This is when someone puts ads on their site or uses an ad network like Google AdSense to monetize their website traffic with ads that pay them per impression (a view) or per click (someone clicks on an ad). It is also possible to write sponsored posts where companies pay YOU directly instead of placing advertisements on your website for free!

Find new income streams
Quiet Quitting is all about finding income streams that you can do in your spare time.
One of the best ways to start building a new income stream is by starting a blog. Blogs are easy to start and can bring in decent passive income if you build them properly. And don’t worry about not having any experience with writing—you won’t be alone, many people are making money from blogs these days!
If you want more control over what you write about, consider adding affiliate links onto your blog posts so that when someone clicks on one of those links and buys something from an advertiser (like Amazon), then you get paid for it! This way, if someone clicks on one of your links they may end up buying something they would have bought anyway even without clicking through—and now YOU get paid too!
Another great option for making money online is creating YouTube videos or podcasts that aren’t based around social media platforms like TikTok or Instagram stories (which most people don’t even watch because they’re so short). These types of videos can be very profitable if done well because they offer longer-form content than most other sites do right now; thus allowing advertisers more opportunities since there’s less competition overall among similar products/services being marketed per minute spent watching ads compared against shorter formats like TikTok does where each video lasts only 10 seconds max before switching over again after another person starts recording their own short clip.
Is it time for you to quiet quit?
When it comes to making extra money, there are no shortage of options. You could start a side hustle, take on freelance work and/or write a blog. There’s a ton of ways you can make extra money that don’t require you to leave your day job (at least not right away).
When it comes time for you to quiet quit, having several different income streams is a must. It won’t be easy but if you want freedom from the 9-5 grind then it’s an absolute necessity!
Quietly quitting is the process of slowly leaving your day job behind and transitioning into a new career. You start by building up an online business on the side, which eventually provides enough income to quit working at your current job.
Conclusion
If you’re ready to start a side hustle and make some extra money, then these tips will help you get started. Start by finding something that interests you, then find an audience for it. If there isn’t one already out there waiting for your content, build it! Don’t be afraid to try new things and experiment until something works for you. Finally—and most importantly—know that quitting is good!
