I made $0 revenue for the past 3 months

I resigned from my last job in Dubai the last year. From October I was free to work on anything I want.

My aim was to launch my product fast. But 3 months over. Many launch dates passed. Till now a proper launch is not done.

My only revenue source

The salary that got credited till September was my only revenue source. I stopped doing freelancing 3 years before. I previously done freelancing when I was short of money.

I created new features in web applications as part of freelancing. But now my main aim is to focus on my product.

The problem I should solve

I thought I will work on my product, will see how it will grow. Will might look into other job opportunities if things are not progressing.

Now I am getting into that reality. No revenue means, burning my savings. So the first problem I should solve is lack of revenue.

I should work on remote freelance jobs or full-time onsite jobs. I have good experience in React JS, Laravel, Node JS, etc.

The problems I faced this 3 months

I was overwhelmed by many things. Lacked the mental peace. Lacked productivity.

These days launching a product means not just coding. But also do growth marketing, content creation, testing, deploy, etc. This if done without a proper system overwhelms.

Due to several problems in my personal life, I was holding a lot of stress in my head. The life felt boring on many days.

Chasing cheap dopamine & ADHD kind of problems

Listening to youtube on background accompanied my work time. It gave me cheap dopamine and took productivity from me. My focus went away.

I also was not exercising enough, only walking. Walking only was not enough to kill the stress and get natural dopamine.

How I improve now

I started limiting watching youtube. Recently, I started cycling again. I took my cycle to hilly terrain and it helped me to choke and pushed me to go more.

Anothe hidden thing I found is interstitial journaling. It helped me to get into a work mood. For me, it is just writing what I am going to do next.

I also learned about ways to improve an ADHD kind of brain by improving thinking skills and practicing little exercises for helping the five sensories aware of the space I am in.

What I am going to do?

I need to make and follow a system that will bring revenue and will help to grow my product to a stable revenue.

I will work for people by offering freelance web development services in React JS, Laravel, Node JS etc. I have 12 years of web development experience.

What I learned now?

Without a proper system and buring savings while not having a revenue from the product I build is a serious issue that I should solve.

When not addressed this issues will lead to more financial problems.
