 Unlike many others, I know my value, charging my rate on my terms. Also my direct client are grateful to me for teaching them to avoid "pure translators". Ain't a big step forward?)

 While I assess my current personal and professional life quite prosperous, after moving to a foreign country I plan to start my own biz (not directly related to translation), so it's a smooth progress.

In terms of productivity, I may have peaked a few years back, but in terms of quality, I feel that I'm steadily improving at a nice pace.
