Being a freelancer is not as easy as one might think. Most of us work several hours to manage to do well. Others cannot afford to work just a couple of hours especially if it is their main source of income. As a freelancer, do you feel that you need to work a lot of hours to earn a decent income, and so has this led you to take up most of your day?
Do you still have enough time to relax, have fun and do your favorite hobbies? Is it possible to balance your work and family needs? Any tips?

This eventually turned into a health hazard as it's not sustainable and this also actually landed me in the hospital. Partially because I was already sick and working all that time didn't allow my body to recover. So I learned from that mistake, and try to take it easy. I like to work mostly via the weekdays, either in the mornings, or during the afternoons.
If you want, you can always set up a time to work, say from like 6am to 2pm.. that's 8 hours, a normal working day. Or you can try to accomplish all the things you need to get done in 4 hours and use the rest of the day to be with family. One may think that the more they work the more money they will earn, however I saw that it wasn't the case.
I was constantly working, and trying to get things done within timeframes and it totally backfired on me. Not only did I have to stop working, I had to rethink everything because of my income was due to me working online, and I was out of money. This was a scary time as I didn't know where to work anymore so I had to find a 9 to 5 job and didnt want that.
I later had to move due to some issues where I was living, it's a long story, and it had nothing to do on my part. However, I recovered from all of this, and doing quite well with the schedule I currently have. Here's my schedule:
6 to 8am, I wake up, and eat breakfast
Around 10 to 12 I eat lunch
Around 5 to 7 I eat dinner
Around 11 to 1 i go to sleep.
It's never really the same, there is no set times but it seems to work for me. At this moment, I'm actually waking up later in the day due to me trying to finish a MMORPG gaming script and trying to research for a new vehicle as well. However, I'll fix my schedule in the next few days. For me it depends on the work load. I like to work my butt off on week days, and use the weekends to relax, and recoup. I use to just constantly work for hours on end and this eventually led me to be behind on everything. I was so stressed, and literally had no time for anything. I would wake up and work and go to sleep and repeat day after day. This eventually turned into a health hazard as it's not sustainable and this also actually landed me in the hospital.
