Setbacks

I've had several setbacks and have struggled to find my feet career / job wise and it just has been feeling like 1 thing after another. Is anyone in the same boat where they had several setbacks or failures? In my experience it can really suck.

    Hey @TheNightmare. This sounds really difficult, as it usually is with multiple setbacks!

    Thanks so much for listening, I really appreciate it. I’ve been feeling pretty negative lately, especially after facing so many setbacks. It’s been tough to stay positive, but I’m trying to work through it. I just really want something to work out for once so I can start feeling more hopeful about things again.

    @TheNightmare Keep your head up- you're doing all that you can and that is all you can do. There is light at the end of the tunnel <3
