I totally understand. When I was a freelancer, I found that working on project work forty or more legit billing hours a week is a lot harder than advertised. When I'd been full-time or working for a consulting house, a lot of my forty plus hours was actually spent listening to meetings and performing non-productive activities. Moving to freelancing, I felt like I hit a wall at thirty-five actively-logged hours on tools like Toggl and needed to take breaks. No one was holding me accountable for my time except myself. From experience, I feel like most professional consulting organizations pad hours, but I'd prefer to show more for my time since my personal brand is critical to my success.
