Really Take Sick Days
You might be tempted to work through sickness because you're a hermit who doesn't see people besides video chat and Instagram live. Seriously, take a few days off when you're sick. The stress of work and the lack of rest will just prolong your illness. If you're under a tight deadline, it's nice that you can potentially keep working, but you really want to take some time to let your body heal. So kick back, make some nice soup, and take a nap. Your body deserves some time to heal. And get medicine, your immune system is getting older and you can't fight it off on your own like you used to.
Context: So a little bit ago, I went full time freelance. It's been a ride full of lessons learned. On my instagram, I asked people for their diehard rules of the trade, and I compiled a list that should help people run their businesses a little more smoothly. If you have some design rules you live by, feel free to comment or message me on Instagram. https://www.instagram.com/darumacreative/
