I choose which commissions to take on, so I have control over my own work load. Usually I'm fine, unless I accidentally bite off more than I can chew. That rarely happens though. I'm rather careful with my choices, and I only have two contracts that necessitate continued work. Most of my jobs are for a single outfit. I even manage to have time to work on my own clothing, though in a pinch I set personal projects aside for the sake of professionalism.
