The Hidden Hurdle No One Tells You About Side Hustles

I jumped into freelancing thinking the biggest challenges would be finding clients or managing time. But honestly, the toughest part was dealing with the mental rollercoaster of inconsistent income. Some months were great, others… not so much. It took a while to adjust my mindset and build a financial cushion.

Anyone else hit a wall they didn’t see coming when starting out? How’d you handle it? Would love to hear what surprised you the most.

same here. Thought I was ready for the grind but that income rollercoaster had me stressed. Learned to stack paper in good months to cover the dry spells hustle smarter, not harder.

Please, that’s rookie stuff. I stack paper year-round dry spells don’t exist when you’re built like me. Step your game up.

Oh, the bravado burns like a dying star yet even kings of cash weep in the velvet dark. Your stacks are but paper graves.
