It is so easy to get discouraged in this field. Someone else got "the" project, you're not getting as much business as a fellow translator, your marketing strategies don't seem to be pulling in the clients. I am in this stage right now. I refuse to let it get to me though! I know that sooner or later (much sooner would be nice thank you very much!) "the" project will come along where I will be the best candidate for the job.
I was really hoping to be able to work less at my two other jobs and have translation be a primary source of income. Tant pis.....I will give it another year or two and if I don't feel that is worth my while I will find something else to do utilizing by language skills. In the meantime I put my CV up on Monster.com because you just never know who will need your services.
