    සමහර කාලෙට ඔහොමයි. සමහර කාලවලට නම් ගානට balance කරන යනවා. :) :(

    Hmm :( දවසටම විනාඩි 45ක් විතරක් නිදාගත්ත දවසුත් තියෙනවා බන් :sorry: orders නැති කාලෙට ඇත්තෙම නෑ. ඔන්න exam එකක් එහෙම තියෙන කාල වලට හිටු කියල orders එන්නේ :(

    I don't know
    So why are you guys sad? Freelancing is an amazing way to earn money, Love what you do, don't be sad, whenever you have some free time go out and hangout with your friends :baffled:
    Think about those guys who do gov. jobs they don't even earn 40k per month, but freelancers could earn that amount within a day or so (yeah it depends on what you do i know that :baffled: anyway just telling) Do what you love and money will follow :P
    Btw i'm not a freelancer wish i was :baffled:

    Yeah, I know. There are many advantages as well. But sometimes it's just too much to handle machan. Maybe because I'm just starting out as a freelancer :(

    These days I'm working on few large scale(ish:P) projects and to make things worse, one of the buyers is a perfectionist who asks for modifications even for the smallest things :frown:

    Haven't had a good night sleep for days and just wanted to ease the frustration by posting something :lol:;)

    Been there. Don't that.

    - if you feel overwhelmed, increase your hourly rate.
    - you've got to have a hobby. I spend shitload of money on traveling. Bring your laptop, borrow some Burger King free wifi and you've got your working space.
    - manage your time and have boundaries. Limit distractions and get cracking when you work. Stop every work when you are not supposed to work. If the client wants immediate work dibe, try to get him to understand.
    - I have a wonderful British client who is also a perfectionist. But I love working with him because he's a perfectionist and that makes me one too.
    - look out for anxiety and depression. You'll never realize until it's serious.
    - spend some quality family time and hang out with dear friends too.

    With all dine, you'll feel much more accomplished: you have actually.
