Perhaps, this time is the real beginning of my path to freedom

November 2021 is almost over, think about the days that have passed, feel like you are going around a big circle and back to the original point, starting over.

When I first graduated from school, I entered what people call a regular unit, working in a state-owned enterprise. At that time, the headquarters was in Beijing, and the scale of our Sichuan branch was very small, although the work was very busy, but because of the simple personnel relationship, the work was still pleasant.

Later, with the development of the business, the scale of personnel has multiplied, the leadership team has been constantly updated and adjusted, and the various management systems and methods of the company system have also been continuously updated to adapt to this change, of course, many things have become complicated. I really didn't like this kind of work environment, so I chose to leave.

I no longer wanted to work in a company-type unit, and was introduced by a friend to work at a Japanese hair salon. I myself studied foreign languages, majoring in English and Japanese as a minor, but instead of working as a translator in the store, I chose to start as a hairdresser and hope to one day become a hairdresser. I worked in this store for more than 5 years, and finally left because the store was affected by the epidemic and the Japanese store manager treated Chinese employees badly. In fact, I like the job of hairdresser itself.

In late January of this year, after I left my favorite hairdressing job, I didn't know what to do for a while and a half. Although I also thought about slowly learning and growing into a freelancer at that time, but because I had no relevant experience and no bottom in my heart, I still found my predecessors in the previous job, and through her introduction, I went to Kunming to work.

After working in Kunming for half a year, practice has proved that I am not suitable for working in the company. Although I was never late for work, worked seriously, and often worked overtime, on the surface it didn't seem to be a big problem, but my heart was very painful, because I knew how much I hated the people and things in this job. I feel that this job is simply a torment for me, and I regret my cowardice and dare not let myself escape from the so-called track of ordinary people. Due to the heavy workload and painful mood, my physical health index also declined. This was evident not only to myself, but also to a physical examination in August. So I decided to leave in September.

During the physical examination, the doctor told me that because I had not rested well for a long time, my body showed signs of overwork and needed to rest and adjust. So, after national holiday, I began to officially explore my freelancing growth path.

Starting in October, I started doing live audio on a music platform, which currently starts from 8:30 to 14:00 every day; later, I coached my operation staff and assisted me in applying for musicians and radio stations, and I can upload my own cover works and reading works. Overall, this is a good rhythm of life that has things to do without getting too tired, and it is good for my physical and mental recovery.

Recently, having read some of the freelance writers who grew up supporting themselves by writing, I also wanted to give it a try to see if I could learn and expand in this field. I've shot some short videos before, but I don't feel like I can talk much, so I want to move to the writing section, of course, I can occasionally shoot some videos as I want, but I want to focus on writing.

At present, I have moved back to Chengdu from Kunming, and the way I work from home, I am also slowly adjusting and adapting. Although the freelancing path is indeed a lot free, it is not easy, and there are too many things to learn. But to be able to work the way I like and support myself is also my own desire, I also want to work hard for this matter, the road of life has brought me here, then I will work hard, come on!
