sudhirke Congratulations on your wins! When I get a creative block, I usually go for a long walk, but you're already hiking, so I don't know if that will help! I do find that movement helps. Or a very, VERY strong cup of coffee (if you drink coffee). Also, just stepping away from the screen for a bit can help give you some clarity. Good luck!

My wins this week were:

April was a new profit high for me. Like, the most profitable month of my LIFE. Whew! How did I get here?
This is a strange win, but my laptop is on its last leg so I had to buy a new one on Monday. I'm very fortunate to be in a position where I can just drop a fairly large amount of money on a new laptop. I haven't had a new one since 2009 (they've all been refurbished except for the one I bought in 2009). I'm feeling a lot of feelings about letting go of my old laptop because it was with me when I made the transition to full-time freelancer. I intend on writing a post about it for you all to see, but it'll be your choice to read it!
I left the house today, so that's good!

Those are all my wins.

That brings up an open discussion on what techniques do you use when you hit that creative block

JessicaKay Thanks Jessica :). I am a coffeee lover (before 2pm :) afternoon. Congratulations on hitting the new benchmark of your freelanceing carrier.
You got there with the work you did and struggles you had in the past. So you definately deserver a very high end laptop. I am curious which one did you get?
Would love to read your blog about laptop journey :), It's difficult to letting go the old laptop (if it's in working condition).

sudhirke Thank you for your kind words!

I ended up getting a Lenovo. It's not super fancy, but I needed it for meetings and it's working well, so I'm happy! I'm still doing work on my old computer and just the meetings on the new computer. I'm in a weird in between space, but I'll eventually just use my new computer.

I hope you've solved your creative block!
