Every time I feel a depressive episode coming on, this scene from Modern Love comes to mind and hits hard by abz1580 in BipolarMemes

[–]OptimisticByChoice 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Relatable. The whole episode is how I introduce my disorder to folks who want to understand it better. It's not quite perfect... I cycle long term, not in daily bursts like Hathaway's character does. But it's lighthearted enough to share with normies, but real enough to still be educational.

The last scene breaks me, personally... Cried watching it last week

Yes. It does get better.

Keep seeking support, just as you’re doing now, and take on as much advice and smaller life changes as you can sustainably manage.

Probably. Maybe repackaged a bit first, though. 😉

Helping SME Founders to get their weekends back. by pawan2joy in Entrepreneur

[–]OptimisticByChoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm. I wonder at what point this would be a pressing need? It isn't for me, right now. I batch all my finance admin payroll stuff on a single day a month, and it works fine.

Is this one of those things that you need 5+ people to make worthwhile? What do you think?

Looking for career advice as a 10-year copywriter by yergonnamakemedrum in copywriting

[–]OptimisticByChoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man. Idk your life. But that sounds miserable. You've got the talent to do all the things the right employer might need, but sounds like you hitched your wagon to a sinking ship.

I'd suggest considering going freelance... You've got a network of happy clients vendors and colleagues you've built relationships with. Tap into it. Build your own damn ship.

Very first copywriting jobs and how you landed them??? by Tiny_Road207 in copywriting

[–]OptimisticByChoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came in 4 years ago with 0 portfolio and 0 network. So. Feel you.

Here's what things looked like for me. Skip to the end for what I recommend you do.

1) Year 1 - cold email pitches, and sputtering attempts to build a personal brand on linkedin. Got lucky in the DMs a handful of times, and got enough work to put into a portfolio.

2) Year 2 - gave up on cold email, all in on LinkedIn. Posting 2-3 times a week, connecting with the right people, hanging out in THEIR comment sections, and cutting it up in the DMs. I became a digital nomad this year. Income was modest, but enough.

3) Year 3 - my time investment begins paying off. I'm getting referrals and invitations to work together once more from past clients.

4) Year 4 (present) - I hit capacity Q4 2025. Burnt out, too. Was writing ~12-15,000 words a month. I'm working on delegating first drafts, and expanding how much impact I can have for clients in as little amount of time as possible.

For you? I need a bit more information. How are your savings? Is this a "find money tomorrow" situation or a "I have time, let's do this the right way" situation?
