I am In "Burn Out" (alien.top)

Hello everyone. Long story short I will try to be as objective as possible. 9 months ago I was a professional video editor, freelancer and was making good money out of it. Decided to change my work and go to sales. I went into sales and started work in the best business coaching in Bulgaria and probably in the world (won't say the name of the company). I have been working there for 7 months now as a sales representative but because of inappropriate target audience assessment from their side, they managed to convert only 2% of the leads I gave them. As a result, my commission was really low. I shared with them that I am considering starting a new side hustle just to have some cashflow going so I can start investing money but they advised me to stay for longer in sales and it will pay me. I don't know...I don't have cashflow and this really makes me anxious and unmotivated to do anything whatsoever. I also have a chance to start a mobile detailing business. Don't know what's appropriate to do - listen to them / listen to my anxious ass...

What I forgot to mention and will just put it here is that they gave me a chance to be a sales development representative but again can't expect quick cashflow.
