RE: I could use a little emotional support.

in #life7 years ago (edited)

well man, you have any financial backup? If not, maybe switch things around. It should not be too late to get your job back. Your vision should be clear that you earn enough money outside of your day job. It is possible , but its hard work and no space for romantic thoughts. Problem is you cant built up resources like steem or something else cause you need to withdraw a grand each month. man man man. Might be best to look for an easy job as a park guard and plan your future while youre in the job and then do it.

Bro, you are right about me doing it wrong. I'll say that. I just can't go back there. I might have to get a part-time job to help pay the bills. Fortunately, I'm in a situation where I can live for not too much per month and I also have experience working as a freelance writer / freelance web designer so I can earn a buck on the side.

I might need to get a job waiting tables or something part time to help cover bills but I also might just hustle freelancing while putting out resumes for Blockchain related jobs doing marketing or sales for a company / product / future I really care about.

I like that you said park guard because that's much more my speed. A job I can sit around and make shit money but have my sanity. Something in nature too. I'm not saying I'm ready to not have a job but I think I need something more spiritually rewarding than car sales -- something in nature or something helping people.

Thanks @steemboys for steering me a little better towards health.

Are you self disciplined? This is a big issue, you need to be. Make a plan how you get up in the morning, how your working times will be, what you want to achieve in that day in that week and how you generate your income. If you have done the plan talk to someone, who is really honest with you and knows what he is talking about, if that makes sense.
The danger is that freelancers, especially when its just online work, have the tendency to isolate themselves. And if you quit youre job by an emotional moment, what prevents you from being guided by that emotions in your freelance job?
My advice, which i had to learn and helped me, is to write down a plan and stick with it on a daily/weekly/monthly basis. Thats what all sucessful publisher do. You will also gain confident and trust by achieving the goals in your plan, which will help you further. Good luck

Bro you are so helpful. I'm going to listen to your advice and try to implement some form of structure and also seek out continued emotional support in groups so as to not isolate.

Thank you again!
