Freelance Graphic Designer : Three Secrets to Survive Your First Year

[@aminahhunter2721]

I just decided this week that I want to become a graphic designer. Turning 30 in June and I am determined!!! I have no experience AT ALL in this field and I've been having a mixture of emotions from anxiety to excitement to fear to joy 😂

I feel like you were speaking to my SOUL! I've been freelancing for the past three years, but it's only this year I've started to implement some systems and be a lot more consistent. And when it comes to results it shows! I can relate to slackin off and having a jumbled routine so much. I also crave a lot of freedom and kept telling myself that " but waking up late is the point of being self employed!" Currently one of the things Im intentionally fixing, so that i have a better start to my day and sleep better lol. It's all taken a lot longer than i thought it would but at the same time I'm learning so much more than I thought on this freelance journey. Thank you so much for this video and sharing your advice 🫶

Right!? Having systems in place makes a world of a difference. And once you get that routine down, it’ll 10x what you’re doing. One day at a time! Best of luck on your journey 🌿
