Not sure if this is what you are looking for, ... but I'll share it:
For the most part, .... earning sats is done the same way you earn fiat. Provide value -- either by selling goods and services, or by investing capital and earning a return.
Because bitcoin is still not reached mass adoption, it can be actually quite a bit harder in many ways to earn bitcoin than it is to earn in fiat.
But as more people have either bitcoin accumulated from investment wealth or they earn a salary in bitcoin, etc. a circular economy will form further, and earning in bitcoin will become easier.
