Try to set smaller milestones alongside your main goal. Reaching your first consistent $100, then $250, and finally $500 can help keep you motivated throughout the journey.

If you encounter setbacks, don't disappear from the thread. Sometimes the most valuable updates are the ones explaining what went wrong and what you learned from the experience.

I like your mindset about building systems instead of relying purely on luck. Creating repeatable processes usually leads to much more stable results over time.

One suggestion would be to review your progress every month instead of every day. Daily numbers can be emotional, while monthly trends usually provide a much clearer picture of how you're actually performing.

Your age is actually one of your biggest advantages. You have plenty of time to experiment, make mistakes, and develop valuable skills before entering the workforce full-time.

Don't forget to enjoy the learning process as well. Looking back, I often appreciate the lessons I learned during the difficult times even more than the money I eventually earned.
