step 1, get a job, just anything that pays the bills and allows for some time to develop your own projects.
step 2- cut your projects down to 1, focus
step 3 - timeblock and set focused times to specifically make measurable incremental progress. keep focused.
Totally agree. Most of the times, having too many projects causes burnout. OP can just focus on one thing at a time. Here's a good article mainly focusing on Understanding Signs And Recovery Strategies
I would recommend replacing get a job with start freelancing. You can modulate freelancing according to your availability.
For a beginner freelancer is not recommended, assuming that OP is a developer, it's gonna be difficult as fuck for him, when you work as a jr developer (even mid) for a company, you have a whole team by your side where you can ask or depend on, working alone as a developer you have to be everything yourself meaning Front/back end, QA and Dev Ops at once.
Freelancing in some cases is recommended for people who have already years of exp and a lot of projects developed.
What sort of freelancing do you know of that could bring in similar income to a part time job?
I completely agree with your insights!
Excellent
Everyone just needs these 3 steps. And keep grinding! You will be successful for sure.
I love this but struggle with this too, it’s like I offer a few different creative services, filmmaking is my main one but we also offer websites too. If I completely stop websites and just do video then I lose a lot of potential clients and money. Never been able to really work this out
Best advice ive heard today
Damn i want you as my personal coach
I love this, a good way to rephrase it (change the mindset) is to view your employer as a client. If you can land that job, you can land any client
I’m gonna add doing virtual co working to stay focused and not feel alone
This is excellent
