From Rejection to Resilience: My Ongoing Journey to Earn Online from Nigeria
When I first decided to try earning online, I thought it would be simple: create an account, do some work, get paid. But reality quickly humbled me.
I tried Fiverr. Hours of creating a gig, writing descriptions, designing banners—only to be rejected. Not once, but multiple times. That felt like a door slammed in my face.
I tried Studypool. Applied, waited… still pending. Weeks turned into months, yet no approval. Another wall.
I tried Toloka. This one gave me some hope. I could take tasks and earn, but it wasn’t as straightforward as I imagined. Some projects needed extra verification, some disappeared fast, and the earnings were small at first. Still, I kept going.
Then came the news about Remotasks shutting down in Nigeria. That was a big blow for many who depended on it. It made me realize something important: these platforms can vanish overnight.
So where does that leave me? Honestly, I’m still figuring it out. But here’s what I know:
Persistence is key. Every rejection is just another redirection.
Diversification is survival. You can’t depend on one platform.
Community is power. Sharing my journey here on Konnect means learning and growing with others facing the same struggles.
My goal remains the same: ₦11,000 a day, enough to sustain myself, and eventually build a full-time hustle. I’m not there yet, but each attempt is a lesson, each failure is a push forward.
If you’re reading this and struggling too, know this: you’re not alone. Let’s walk this road together.
