Mpache Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 Anyone have any tips to those who have trouble working? I have no expectations on me thankfully, but at the moment I am slightly struggling to get my next YT video out or start with my freelance writing. Partly is cos I'm slacking off, but I'm also lacking confidence. Anyone ever have this problem or have any advice to overcome this?
Berserker Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 Find work as a bodyguard in Peru, you must be in the top 5% of the biggest & tallest Peruvians surely.
nudge Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 Get a proper job. And just in case you think I'm taking the piss - I'm not. Get a job with a defined schedule and clear requirements and oversight to attain more discipline and develop work ethic.

In a workplace I seem to work better too so you're not far off the truth for a lot of people. Obviously right now it's not a great moment to look for a job due to this whole pandemic. I just feel a bit useless really. I can't even get working on my own projects.

Rely on developing discipline instead as it translates into habit.

Apply for 5 jobs a day, with a well written resume and cover letter. Save your money and don't spend 50 pounds on an online forum. Focus your time an energy on your craft and spend less time on your time drainers (forums, video games, youtube, tv...)
