Congrats!!!!!! You deserved it. Actually, you deserve a lot more and I'm sure time will show that I'm thinking straight. Keep building meaningful relationships and don't stop investing time in your side husstles.

As for the question, I just recently hit the same number. I take pride in it as well, and honestly feel a relief more than anything else.

I am free to write with less concern and no longer question if there is potential to this craft. And if you ever did, you shouldn't worry either and keep up the good work.
