through a college or continuing education program, by creating your own classes, or by creating your own webinars or tele-seminar series online", Collamer says

If you are not interested in teaching, appraise, repair or fix items related to what you love Most hobbies have "stuff" connected to them, and sometimes, that stuff needs to be fixed by a skilled

and knowledgeable person "You could fix computers, appraise collectibles, repair bicycles,

source missing parts for highly unusual items, and so on," Collamer says

"The next time you find yourself confused as to how to generate income from your hobbies,

search out the most successful entrepreneurs in your area of interest and study their business models and revenue streams," Collamer suggests "Ask yourself: Is their income coming from

consulting services, videos, accessories, events, classes or product sales? What is their mix of products and services? What is their pricing strategy?" In doing this, you will discover proven

models for monetizing your hobbies, as well as helpful information about how to price your own services and products

Mufson, who has interests outside of career coaching, says she managed to turn a hobby into a lucrative part- time gig "I personally turned my hobby of creating gemstone jewellery into a

side-line business," she explains "Jewellery making is an expensive hobby and early on I

the correct answer to each of the questions

Researchers in the field of psychology have found that one of the best way to make an

important decision, such as choosing a university to attend or business to invest in, involves the utilization of a decision worksheet Psychologists who study optimization compare the actual

decisions made by people to theretical ideal decisions to see how similar they

are Proponents of the worksheet procedure believe that it will yield optimal , that is, the best

decisions Although there are several variations on the exact format that worksheets cam take, they are all similar in their essential aspects

Worksheets require defining the problem in a clear and concise way and then listing all possible solutions to the problem Next, the pertinent considerations that all possible solutions to the

problem Next, the pertinent considerations that will be affected by each decision are listed, and the relative importance of each consideration or consequence is determined Each

consideration is assigned a numerical value to reflect its relative importance A decision is

mathematically calculated by adding these values together The alternative with the highest

number of points emerges as the best decision

Since most important problems are multifaceted, there are several alternatives to choose from, each with unique advantages and disadvantages One of the benefits of a pencil and paper

decision-making procedure is that it permits people to deal with more variables than their minds can generally comprehend and remember On the average, people can keep about seven ideas

number of variables with complex relationships A realistic example for many college students is the question "What will I do after graduation?" A graduate might seek a position that offers

specialized training, pursue an advanced degree, or travel abroad for a year

A decision-making worksheet begins with a succinct statement of the problem that will also help

to narrow it It is important to be clear about the distinction between long-range and immediate goals because long-range goals often involve a different decision than short-range ones

Focusing on long-range goals, a graduating student might revise the question above to "What

will I do after graduation that will lead to a successful career?"

Question 20 According to decision-worksheet theory, an optimal decision is defined as one that _

A has the fewest variables to consider

B uses the most decision worksheet

C has the most points assigned to it

D is agreed to by the greatest number of people

Question 21 Which of the following terms is defined in the passage?

A Proponents (para 1)

B Optimal (para 1)
