People are coming to this platform as freelancers in more numbers than before, which leads to high competition, which is the main reason your proposals are not getting any views. Also, most people have no experience sending proposals, making it even harder for clients to find a good freelancer. I see all over the community people asking for suggestions and stuff to get jobs. But it does not mean the platform has no work, although it may mean that you must put much more effort into finding the best-suited jobs and applying.

For the cancellation part of the post, I suggest NEVER cancelling the contract if it is incomplete. Wait for at least 14 days after your milestone submission. After that, contact Upwork Support before ending the contract on your own.

I wish the best of luck to you, Shehar Yar.
However, my strategy is simple:

• Don't send a proposal until the job is 100% matching your skills.
• Check the hiring % of the client.
• If the client is new, wait a few minutes and see if the clients interview someone. Also, check if he has posted other jobs. This will give you an idea of whether the client is genuine.
• Check the budget and location of the client and see if it is in your comfort zone.
• Your PROPOSAL is what matters. Make sure it states why the client should choose you over others. Don't mention stuff in your proposal that can be seen on your profile, like "My name is this, I have this, that skill", etc.

The 'Rising Talent' badge is only when you dont have enough jobs to obtain a JSS -  it disappeared because you now have a JSS score that was calculated based on private feedback from your clients. This is normal and is not something to worry about
