An inspirational freelancing story on Reddit.
The guy was broke and effectively homeless back in July. Now he’s on track to earn $10k next month from a handful of clients 💰
He offers digital marketing services and found his clients through Upwork. Sounds like he didn’t learn any new skills since July so much as he started to treat his freelancing like a proper business.
I went all-in on the freelancer path. I told my depression and dependencies to eat shit, actually went to bed and woke up at reasonable times, and put in 12 hour days.
Basically – I hit an inflection point in my life back this summer. I’d been working unserious gigs, not taking care of my finances and ultimately not taking care of myself.
Get serious. Start grinding. Set goals. But always look back at where you came from in context of where you want to go.
Your journey might not happen as quickly as mine did – from borderline homeless and absolutely depressed to $10K a month… but everyone’s timeline is different. And all that matters is that you get there.
