Have a seat user, tell me about it
How you holding up Zig Forums?
just bought a house and i'm doing the self-sabotage shit again. i never thought i'd get this far.
10 months and still not over her...still talk to her in my head, imagine she's in the room and shit. Feels bad.
Nothing Im doing is failing spectacularly, but the mediocrity is killing me
>made a content website that's getting like 100 views/day organically through google search
>make like $0.05/day currently in ad revenue
>need to double or triple my traffic to get into good ad networks (google adsense just doesn't accept new applications anymore for some reason since covid)
>made an online store and started selling stuff on amazon/ebay (as well as my own store that for all intents and purposes cant be shut down, I dont trust the joos)
>doing like $100-200/day in sales, which amounts to like $50 in profit
>need to double or triple my sales in order to actually support myself
It feels like I'm so close I can taste it, and its not like I've run out of shit I can do to improve, but god damn, this actually feels worse than when I was doing nothing productive.
Im unironically being audited by the irs
Drinking every day again, I was inspired in 2018 when I was accumulating LINK and now it's hard to find the same inspiration to be sober and improve myself. I just hope God is not mad at me for being a drunk right now, I mean it.
Things are starting to look up, I'm optimistic, but I wont hold my brain.
How can you hold your brain if you don't have one user?
If you do have a brain, how can you prove it?
Wife’s pregnant with number two and I check my phone and see this. Fuck robinhood. About to move my portfolio over completely to WEBULL, already have 75%ish over there but this might be final straw. Never seen WEBULL act up.
>i'm doing the self-sabotage shit again
don't
Thinking about getting Bonded Finance, but I don't know if my biz friends are lying to me :(
Meant breath, but it somehow got autocorrected. I'm taking a shit.
it's been 3 yrs for me bud. as much I hate myself for turning her down. I don't think I would have made it financially.
for me there's 4 important things in life:
money
family and friends
health
wife
eh I got 3/4 so that's good enough me.
That's why you will never make it, too busy taking shits.
God is never mad at you. Don’t ever think that. He’s right there with you experiencing your struggles too. Have faith.
That sucks. However it shows that you are an
extremely devoted and loyal man. You know that you have something genuine to offer to whichever woman stumbles into your life next.
turned 18 this year and got a few thousand in birthday money. Then i proceeded to lose it all in option stocks. So not so great desu and I feel like a retard. Now I'm trying to learn how to code python to have some marketable skill, turn out I actually enjoy programming a lot so its going smoothly.
I will have a Corpse Reviver No.2 please
Was in the previous thread talking about getting strung along for a promotion, have started applying for new jobs and messaging my contacts. I know Christmas is a shit time to be looking but it feels good to be taking action
I cant help it, got Crohn's.
Been in an open surrounding since thursday morning due to impulsive suicidal thoughts and general depression. 2020 was very tough for me on personal level and Corona certainly didn't help. I have a big and understanding personal network and >100 ETH. I hope this is enough to retire for a year or two and then reinvest (living alone, currently no partner and no kids)

How long have you been doing this for? Age when you started?
I would say I'm ahead of you and all I can say is keep at it. Find the joy of making the pain suck even more for yourself, similar to weight lifting.
You'll eventually be good enough to where you can freelance/'consult' for additional side income at comfier rates.
Also, get a corporate job if you can. It helps if you have a degree to meme with and it's 50/50 whether or not you'll work with competent people. The pace will also be much slower as people could give less of a fuck producing work for someone else. The stability and check is nice enough to cash infuse into your emergency fund, side businesses, etc.
Likewise, you'll be able to do the job with a similar 'give a fuck attitude'. Climbing the ladder is a marathon with constantly moving goal posts and not exactly the best in terms of reward for your efforts. Job hopping every 2 years or so for the right opportunity (since you have side income and emergency savings) that you can milk for the best reward for the least amount of stress is ideal.
waiting for my massive biopharma bet to pay
nutrition company soon to be running
browsing investment properties that i cant afford
watching hand egg
Doing any drug every day is retarded. God is not pleased. You don't need any inspiration not to drink. That is the default mode of existence.
How am I doing?
ISOCRYME
Check out the “Data Analysis” nanodegree on Udacity, or there other similar programs you can find out there. I learned a lot about Python, getting data from APIs and then manipulating that data into valuable business insights. I actually have a 2nd job now entirely because of that program and it only took 4 months to complete.
I used to be like you, then I stopped drinking.
I wish I was dead
i’m bored all the time. i have a high paying cs job but i really want to do something else, even for (way) less money. applied 7 times, got rejected 7 times. i’m going to off myself if i have to spend another day longer in my golden cage. fuck life. but i got in link at 28c dca so i guess that’s nice.
At this point I’m an emotionless guy. I make shitloads of money trading for where I live and yet I do not spend it. It’s just became a game to me which I willingly do full time.
>tfw drunk right now
you're almost certainly right. i basically got here by going dry for a long period. just wanted to celebrate my relative freedom and next thing i know i'm doing dumb shit and laying in bed for days at a time. based user
Another day another dolla, you know how it is user.
I was in the presale. Its legit, the fud is unrelenting and i dont know why, but its a good project and will get you gains.
Right now im taking the "Modern Python 3 Bootcamp" by colt steele on udemy. but after I finish that ill have this saved to do that. thanks bro
I bought btc for the past 2 years only to trade it all in for link
I bought xerps @.50. I have no idea if the schizos are right.
