Hello,
You have a typo in this line of your profile
"If you got a project to do, let's start it out and get things done. I am sure you will love the results."
What's the good news? Your skill set is among the most in high demand in the world. What's the other news? You compete against 100s, perhaps more, resources with relatively measures of skill in this discipline.
Your profile is excellent. In sales theory, you live in what is called commodity services, LoLN marketing. Meaning, your skills are considered a commodity service by virtue of how many offer them. Obviously there are distinguishing factors in quality, that is hard to prove on paper, your profile is as strong as need be to do so.
Steel yourself. You get the special path of patience and law of large numbers. As Upwork has removed the limit for unsuccessful proposals -- that means one thing. You get the special path of grinding it out with proposal volume.
WIthout commentary on how to do this: it is vital to make sure your proposals are bullet-proof. I recommend pre-writing paragraphs of common components of a proposals.

Who are you. What do you offer (specific to the client's needs). How do you deliver your services (by benefit of business advantage). And Why pick you (attached to business benefit, communications capability, specialized skills, past successes, more than just "I am better at what I do than them".
There is an industry in the U.S. called Managed IT service provisioning. MSP. They are commodity-based services. Companies compete for $30k a year support projects, basically all doing the same thing in the same way. There are not a lot of different ways to deliver help desks, remote management and monitoring, public, private cloud, disaster recovery. The live in the Commodity services, LoLN world.
How do the top firms achieve top of mark? They compete with a patience and perservance that is mind bending. Then, eventually, they build momentum, i.e. customer list and they crush their competitors at will by virtue of such.
Steel yourself. You are in commodity-class servivce (by sheer volume of service provider and perceptions) and have LoLN as your sword and shield. Later, it will be different. For now, your competitive advantage is to outwork them in sales effort.
You can do this.
