In short; you probably wont, even if you're decent.
From your post; it seems you're quite new to poker in general and everything you said is quite naive in regards to it.
You really need to focus on just improving first, don't think of money when playing micros. Just post hands in hand sections; try making profitble and correct plays.
Once you have established all of this and are a proven winner then you can think about making $1k a month; but bear in mind this highly likely WONT be at 10nl & won't be for some time yet either.
I'm getting a feeling though; you "need" or want to think of earning money from poker as easy. If you really do need to earn $1k a month, you would be much better of going to find a job.

Well I suddenly don't feel so bad about my 25nl post.
I'm not trying to be mean but I'm pretty sure even Phil ivey could not do this I am trying to do something along these lines as well but you can play on stars and that is huge I can not so take advantedge of that and try to improve and move up cause lets be honest nobody wants to be stuck at 10nl forever.

OP your calculations are WAY off.
You have somehow reached the conclusion that the more tables you play the higher your bb/100. This is wrong.
All you will do is reach those 100 hands faster (with the same bb/100 assuming you win the same amount 1 tabling as you can 4 tabling -highly doubtful)
Assuming you are winning 7bb/100 I have calculated the number of hands you need to be as thus:
10nl for 7bb/100
this is 7x $0.1 per 100 hands
this is $0.7 per 100 hands
1000/$0.7= 1429lots of 100 hands required.
Therefore to win $1000 at 10nl you must play 142,900 hands in one month.
In short this is not possible unless you play about 20 hours a day all month.
And no, you should not move up to $25 nl just to try and hit $1000 a month.
Do one of two things.
1) play 10nl and aim to play correctly, dont aim specifically for a target this will be bad for your play.
2) Take shots at $25nl (maybe when you have a bigger BR)

Just play poker and win or lose what you do. It's pointless trying to plan winrates and profit. Focus on the amount of hands you'd like to play in a month and play your best.
You won't win $1k at 10nl either way.

There is not advice that will make you a 1000k winner over a mounth. You will know what you'll have to do when you will be almost there. Math does not apply here because you cannot play for 4 hours a day like you play for 2 hours, moving up in stackes does not keep your winrate but you will get more rakeback, adding tables also will have an effect over your winrate but you will get to play more hands so a lower winrate but over a bigger sample. The human facor is the unknown variable here.
We cannot tell you how to win 1000 $ a mounth but we can help you improve your current game.

Though all my poker career sometimes I have played to try and make a few bucks and sometimes just for pleasure. The best advice I ever gave myself was this." If you want to make a positive cash flow get steady employment" 1k is very attainable with a job and probably put in a lot less hours of work than you would to make 1k a month playing cards on microstakes.

approx. 70hands/hr.
@7bb/100 winrate on 10nl tables. You're going to make ~ $0.50 per table.
If you're 8-tabling, you'll be making $4/hr.
That's 10hrs. per day (25 days out of the month) to make $1,000
If you're playing 4-tables, you won't be sleeping much.
Basically need to be 18-20tabling to make as much as you would at McDonalds
