Sticking to tiny jobs saved my freelance life

I used to chase big projects but always felt broke and stressed. Now I only take small, quick tasks and my income is steady with less worry. Who else finds that going small beats dreaming big?

Ever struggle to turn down bigger projects when they come along?

Remember how that famine part feels when things are slow. I took on way too much last year, saying yes to every big project, and totally burned out. Now I have a set number of hours I know I can fill well, and anything beyond that gets a no. It forces you to figure out your real capacity.

Totally get this, heard the 'feast or famine' saying before.
