    I cannot be spending money on connects unless I start getting clients because I am on a budget. That is why I have not send any yet. I am wary of going down the drain of spending before winning.
    I think I would like to attract clients to me first, before I spend credits on proposals. Can I ask you for advice on what is the best strategy to do that in your opinion?

    Hey Josh,
    I don't know if you see this comment or not (Reply me back if you do) but I really want to thank you for teaching me how to work on Upwork. After watching your few videos on upwork I landed my first Upwork Job after 2 years of struggles.
    I'm a web developer and was struggling a lot and wasted all the connects every month. Then I have a thought of searching some things on youtube for upwork then I found your channel. After spending a week while watching your videos and understanding the concepts and how to on upwork, I sent 3 proposals on the very same day and got replies from 2 clients and got my first project from one of those client.
    Thanks a lot Josh.

      @@aprilnzuve6471 Luck has absolutely nothing to do with it. That person you just described is an anomaly. The people who win are the ones that consistently put themselves in positions to be lucky. That means doing the same tasks every single day, improving, and going above and beyond. Simply think, "what is everyone else doing?" Then do the opposite. That means when people quit and say it's all about lucky, keep going and keep improving.
