Anyone not having a stable job...how do you handle it psychologically?

Trying to make it as a visual artist is difficult...there are months where i am okay and then months where I barely make it. And it's not that I'm a big spender... The psychological ups and downs that come with this instability and insecurity is something serious really. There comes days where i think life would be so much easier if I had a regular job....

If you can get something like, regular clients or like long term contracts, there will be some element of instability that can concern you. For me, when I got opportunity, I switched to regular job. In my domain there are ways where you can people subscribe to your services, that can also give you sense of some security. If I ever looses the job, I will be trying that.

What I feel is that you have to be more enthusiastic, in a way aggressive towards the growth of your business, and try to build some assets to ensure some passive income.

Best Wishes :)
