I've sent 166 applications in the last 5 months.
And most of them went nowhere. Not even a no. Just… silence. You know the kind. (Where you refresh your inbox for no reason, twice, like the second refresh is gonna change something. 😅)
I kept sending them anyway.
Not because I'm some disciplined guy, no, I'm really not.
I just don't know how to stop once I've started a thing. (It's kind of a problem in other parts of my life honestly, but here it worked out.)
So here's a boring truth I keep coming back to. Nothing good happens once.
It happens because you did the small unglamorous thing again. And then, ugh, again. And again after that when you really didn't feel like it. 🧠
Five months of that added up to 25K.
Which is… I don't know. Small number, big number. Genuinely depends on the day you catch me.
Some days it feels like proof. Some days it feels like I've barely started. Both are probably true.
But the money's not really the part that sticks with me.
It's the days nobody saw. The quiet ones. Where I did the work and nothing landed and I just kind of closed the laptop and did it again the next morning.
CONSISTENCY isn't something I've mastered. Not even close, trust me.
I'm still practicing it. Badly, some weeks. Like properly badly.
But I'm practicing. And weirdly, that's the whole thing. That's it.
And honestly, thank you everyone with me directly/indirectly. None of this was ever really a solo thing 🙏
Continuons d'avancer! ⚡️
