5 years without a jobs:Self-employ path
Hello everyone.I disappear for very longtime,just would like to update some journal about my life currently and I would like to note what's going on with my life here.
I rarely drawing much lately.I'm sorry for that if you +devwatch me for image.I lack inspiration to drawing with major artblock althought I set my resolution in this years to drawing more but it's seem like I didn't draw for several month,because I already discover my new passion.It's 'teaching' and 'entrepreneurship'.So I focus on that and that's reason,and now I'm stable in my little thing already like I said in various journal pass time.Actually I spend around 3 years to reach stable state.Now I've got income quite equal to fulltime job each month but I've no boss.
Finally I quite abandon 'illustrator' path.Not that I give up in artistic path.I just think it's not for me.I prefer not to draw with an order.At least I wish I can choose only project that's interest me.I find that to be illustrator,sometimes you have to draw althought you don't want to draw because you have to work,compare with being entrepreneur or self-employ I can do anything myself,without an order.Anyway when I do fulltime job in drawing path I find it's fun at very early state,because fulltime job you draw without financial concern much.If you're freelance illustrator.You have others thing to concern such as your cashflow eachmonth,your clientele.So,if you would like to happily working I recommend go on fulltime job path 'till you have experience enough to strike in freelancing path.
Life without a fulltime job can be scary and hectic at first time,if you didn't experience this before.
I think for average people if you can find your own path,you can manage to stable in 2-3 year of operation with enough client list.
I think It's good that I can find my path already,in order to teach,like I said it's not about your drawing skill but it's communication skill
This years is important years because I being self-employ for 5 years.It's reach 5 years in march,which passing already.I've ever heard that if you reach 5-10 years mark in any business.It's mean you're survivor.
I face with major setback several times.Include admit in hospital 3 time in 3 years.I've question myself where is happiness and a lot of question about life seep through my brain.
I even question about meaning of life.I wonder why somany bad situation happen to my life again and again.I question myself stuff like this.Even now I also question myself a lot of things.I still believe something happen to your life whether it's good or bad,happen for a reason.It can make you grow as a person.If you learnt some exp. and try to observe what universe try to teach you.Every 'action' will come with consequence or 'reaction' like physic rules.It's law of cause and effect and karma,but I never regret my path.
because what's happen to mylife fostering me to have today,with I discover myself and my way already.
I think it's quite hard for me already to goback to working in full-time job again because I prefer this path.It's path that I'm in total control and have full responsibility in my life.
In case you're now being self-employ or would like to take this path.I think it's not easy but If you can do it.It's open a lot of opportunity to your life and it will open your eye to experience how to deal with major setback when you doing your own thing.
So I hope you're all success with your life,no matter which path you taken.
