These two are more than enough to survive in a bad economy. You have to grind and do whatever it takes to have more or additional sources of income. Because if you'd stick to your income and I don't know how much you're earning or maybe it's a minimum wage in your country, for sure that it is not going to be enough. Staying competitive and upgraded with your skill will make you stand out the most in the job market. You'll never get out of projects even if many of them are just temporal, you'll still be hired by companies being a freelancer or a regular worker.

And not just going on with freelancing, part time work or being a regular job work. You should also start out some potential sales practices because whenever those markets that you're in and many of them are going to be outdated soon because of the competition with AI, you'll be able to survive and can sell anything in many markets that you know because you've practiced on how to sell too. Tough days are coming for most and even we've been through since 2020 up to this year, all we have been doing is just to survive.
