So i am completing the 30 days challenge and from the knowledge i had gained so far, i applied to a few jobs on upwork. I was able to land an interview with a client. The job proposal looked very good and promising, reviews were also very good. Now the lesson Ive learned in all of this is that, before i applied to the job, i checked everything - JD, reviews, payment verification, business with upwork. I had missed just 1 thing in all of this and that was hiring rate, which was at 40%. I didnt check that before applying. Now after 4 days of interview, and even though the client did say we will sign the contract etc, he has started ghosting and isnt replying. So, lesson learned, dont miss even the smallest of detail before applying for jobs.

All 5 prayers ✅ Woke up at 10 am today and unfortunately, my phone wasnt charged, there was no electricity and UPS had also run out. We faced heavy rainfall all through the night. As a result, no electricity whole day so it was a very unproductive kind of a day for me. Couldnt take any lessons, just did household work and sat with family. That was the only fun part of the day, getting to sit with everyone, play games and make memories. Around 11:30 pm, electricity came back, i instantly charges my phone, got on my desk and finished my due assignment. Now im just about to go to sleep because sitting all day also kind of makes you tired 🤣

I am writing my journal after 2 or 3 days. The past days were very hectic for me due to unforeseen events. My house help got really very sick so had to look after them as well as take up the burden of entire household. I was caught between hospital rounds and house chores. Even then, I tried my best to give 3-4 hours to my lectures because something is better than nothing. And im also at a certain point in time where the situation is very dire and if i dont work, i feel guilty. I feel like ive let down the future me. So that gives me some strength and motivation to buckle up and spend minimum 3 hours on desk. I prayed all of my prayers today. 9 am: woke up, made breakfast and served. Sat on desk for 1 hour because boht neend arahi thi. 11 pm - 1 pm: cleaned the house, did some laundry 1:30 pm: went to sleep 3:30 pm: woke up, folded my laundry, made dinner and finished my work by 6:30 pm. 6:30 till 8:30 pm: went to clinic, had a few patients today 9 pm: came home, served dinner. I made nehari today which everyone loved a lot. After dinner i did the dishes and then took my house help to the hospital. We went for ice cream afterwards. 12 am: Came back home and now writing this journal. Will finish my assignment for day 2 of the 30 days challenge and then go to sleep.

Aoa I was just starting this course of upwork profile optimisation and the first video doesnt appear to be a video but in fact just a screenshot. Is it an error on my end or it really is like that?
