I recently shared my journey of applying to the Webflow Partner Program. Now, I'm on the hunt for three individuals who need stunning websites built on Webflow. $140 and I will build you a website/portfolio/landing page/personal blog, etc. Comment "I'm in" to get DM

Freelancing is about being broke, anxious, disappointed, questioning one's worth, barely glueing your body to healthy habits, waking up tired, going to bed exhausted, and people looking dispprovingly, sometimes the closest ones. But it is also about the choice.

Knowing how to craft good-looking UIs is one important skill for a designer. But equally important is the ability to effectively communicate this knowledge. A little thread with articulation exercises:

100 new followers in one week sounds impressive, right? But they don't reach out to me in DMs or comments like my friends do – those who have been here since the beginning when I had nothing. So, if you want to grow, make sure you grow with the right people around you.

I allow myself high calorie food after intense workouts. I allow myself to nap on days when I wake up at 5 AM. I allow myself to play a game after productive focus time. These are small gratifications after hard work, and it's okay to break rules and discipline.
