"Always Look for the Fool in the Deal. If You Don’t Find One, It’s You."
— Mark Cuban
Freelancing is a game of skills, strategy, and negotiation. But let’s be real—if you’re not careful, you might be the one getting played.
I learned the following the hardest way you can possibly think of
🚩Clients who promise "exposure" instead of payment?
🚩Super vague project scopes that magically expand?
🚩Lowball offers disguised as "great opportunities"?
The best freelancers aren’t just great at their craft; they know how to spot red flags, set boundaries, and charge what they’re worth. If a deal feels off, trust your gut.💪

We all want to be Disciplined but do we know the meaning.
I just learned this:
Discipline is your ability to prioritize the need of your future self ahead of your own present self. 🤯

I was watching a course, and I learned that when we lose something—whether it's people, money, or opportunities—it’s not really a loss; it’s the price we pay for a lesson. But you only get the value if you actually take the lesson. You can cry or get mad, but don’t let that payment go to waste.

what will you do if you knew you couldn't fail?
Do we even know the probability of us failing? How certain are we ? Did we test it?
