As a person who’s in their first few years of working full-time on my freelance work, I often find myself hopping from one project to the next, rarely taking the time to rest or slow down because it can feel like a “waste of time.”
Don’t get me wrong, it’s easy to associate that time with fewer projects or less work, but in the long run, it simply isn’t sustainable. Let this serve as a reminder to other freelancers or anyone building their own career:
A: Rest is just as important as hard work, and finding a balance is key.
B: Working on yourself, your own projects, and learning new skills will never be a waste of time.
Sincerely,
A Fellow Work in Progress 🫶
