Those true colors always show up eventually.

I can't work with everyone anymore. I need to be selective about my clients. Over the past four years, I've regretted investing time in projects for friends who ended up treating me poorly. It's not their actions that bother me, but how they handle situations. I try not to offend, but when people don't appreciate my efforts, it's a problem. I realize I played a part in reaching this point by holding back. That's why I now treat everyone as business associates. We'll discuss contracts, percentages, timelines, and invoices upfront.

I've been planning my next moves quietly. Sometimes, when people don't hear from you, they forget your value. This time alone has shown me that I bring creativity to everything I do. I'm focused on building my own path for the long term. I'll be back stronger than ever. No hard feelings, but I'm moving forward.

Wishing you all the best.
