How many hrs do you put in every day? (on average)

Depends, how much I do at home. I go to work at 6.30am and get home about 6.20pm if I do any work at home it could be about 14 hours. I know freelancers that do 16-17 hours a day.

I did the same hours for years. Min 12 hr days.
Now its 8 hrs but 6 during the day & 2 at night.

No rest for the wicked.

No rest for the wicked. lol

For the past 3 months I'd been pulling 20 hr days literally. Sleeping 3 to 4 hrs. I was feeling great, but at the end of it I crashed really hard. Slept for a decade I swear. Also noticed I'd lost about 10 lbs.

I still would rather be over booked than under though :)

Wow, those are brutal hours!
and you're right - its better to be busy than quiet.

I made the mistake last year of not prepping for new business while I was pulling the 12-14 hr days. When the project was finished, I had to scramble to get more work in. Then I had to wait to get paid! 30, 40, 50 days.

I'm off to play soccer. Good to get away from the monitor and get the heart rate up!

I do about 12 hours a day, probably 16 - 18 if I'm having a particularly busy evening...no rest for the wicked right enough
