Build up some savings you can fall back on so you can learn to say “no” to jobs that aren’t a good fit for you and your business.
If you operate from a scarcity mindset, you’ll always stay there.

Send all the good thoughts...my dog died this morning.
She was 10 years old (guesstimated age since she was a rescue). She's been a part of our family for over 9 years.
Not looking forward to telling the kids when they get home from school.
So long good puppy.

Shopify app devs that don't provide a development store option, how come?
This is huge for me as a freelancer who works w/ merchants. Being able to show them how to get your app running or run through basic use-cases.
Also means I'll try it BEFORE contacting support.

I only started using “lol” recently because my dad used to end most of his texts “lol.”

Finally asked him about it and he thought it meant “lots of love.”

Freelancing is scary and it can be very lonely at times. I've learned a lot of things the hard way.
I love sharing content online and learning directly from others but there are times when it's best to get feedback directly and be able to hop in a call and learn from others.

This is wild. Take a look at Shopify. More folks are using it for content and then you can always look at adding the paid digital or other products down the road. Totally doable as content site and you won’t get hit with this mess.

You can't use multi-line metafields in Shopify to display HTML - or can you?
Learned today you can by directly referencing the metafield in the customizer and appending .value to get it to serve HTML rather than plain-text (single-line metafields work just fine to serve HTML).

Sometims I see folks calling premium Shopify themes "pricey" and lacking in features.
That's hilarious.
Not all themes are created equal, in their functionality, design, or support, but to say that they are not an incredible deal at the value they bring is downright laughable.

Finally just made a decision.
Have been using Asana (free) for over a year. Tested out paid version and forced me to make a decision about whether or not I wanted to keep using it.
Experience didn't get any better on paid version.
Moving everything over to Basecamp.
You know what's really dumb
@asana
?
Showing a persistent "Upgrade" button even on paid plans.
I get wanting to make it noticeable, but on a paid version I don't want to be constantly pushed towards upgrading again.
This is tantamount to an ad in paid software.
