I'm about to give up!!

This has been one heck of a roller coaster ride and ive had my fill i feel like im just going in circles and getting no where Ive been home since saturday and now its wednesday and still cant get a load out and everytime i get plan together the rug just pulls out from underneath of me everytime and i mean its everytime im not sure what the hell is going on out there but it needs to come to a stop i get that customers like using the same carriers and keep them busy because they have done alot of business with them over the years i get that but damn sometimes you gotta give a guy a chance i maybe a one man show and i'm not looking to become a big fleet owner and nor i want to bear with that responsibilty i love doing my own thing and i'm lookin to atleast stay busy and not be struggling and yes i have a lowside hopper right now so which limits me on hauling certain products but its the only trailer i could find right now to rent until i can get my revenue up to a reasonable amount steady then i can purchase a taller hopper or even a end dump in the future but also i would love to get a contract with a customer or even with a broker that i can count on as well they can count on me and it has to be a 2 way street for it to work! All im asking is a little help to point me in the right direction so i can get to where i would like to be im not asking to give up your secrets but just a little nudge My thought right now is to sell the truck and just walk away but my wife thinks i should keep at it because ive worked too damn hard for the last 31 years of driving to get to where i am today ! I may not own my dream truck but i do own my own truck and i love what i do and i take pride in it im just so fustrated having the rug pulled out every single time so if anyone has any leads that can point me in the right direction that would be awesome and just give a guy a chance Thank you!
