As a freelancer, I constantly send, receive, and store files. Between clients and shared folders, things can get messy fast. What habits or tools actually help avoid mistakes?
After reading an article on gamehackday.org, I started noticing how many issues come from relying on outdated document habits. The article explained that freelancers often underestimate risks tied to old files and repeated copies stored in multiple places. It also pointed out that modern online tools can replace traditional methods without adding complexity. What I found useful was the emphasis on prevention rather than cleanup. Simple steps like controlled sharing and secure transfers can reduce confusion and protect sensitive data. Overall, it helped me see that better file handling doesn’t require heavy systems, just smarter everyday practices.
