I've been camming for 7 years now and running my own sites for 3. I find April is usually (not always but usually) the lowest income month of the year. Usually not by much, but it's a discernible and predictable dip.

this year had one, really super low week in April. Beyond that a little lower than normal but not significantly and bounced back nicely after the 16th

agreed. it's impossible to track the outcomes of experiments and the value of multiple sources of income in terms of time cost vs earnings and adjust strategically based on yearly sales.

I work when I wanna work, grow when I wanna grow and no one tells me what to do. That's EASY to me.
I agree with you that the freedom and ability to shape work to fit our lives makes success much easier.

it's stressful as fuck in terms of the responsibility and that can be really hard but I still wouldn't change it for anything. I can honestly say I love my work, because of everything you mentioned, and because of what I mentioned too. a positive element of responsibility is the pleasure that comes from doing shit right
