If I read your question correctly, it is not necessarily about what
your work is, but how you managed your time when doing that work.
You may have also attempted to do work for which you were not ready.
If you do any writing, you need to get jobs that need writing done
in your native language. It will be easier for you.
If you want to get ideas, I suggest Fivver to see what others are doing.
I don't necessarily suggest that path, but you may find an idea or two.
Evaluate yourself and decide what you can do, and want to do,
then create a plan for yourself to use your strengths.
The main thing that you want to remember is that you want
to help people in some way. Keeping that in mind will go a
long way toward being successful.
Contrary to much of the marketing out there, it is not that
easy to make instant money online. It takes a little time
to cultivate trust and interest.
One more thought . . .
If you need money quickly, and have something around
your place that you are not using and don't need anymore,
there is always Ebay that can provide you with a few dollars
fairly quickly.
