Whenever I tell somebody about online freelancing…

It seems like they get really excited, think about all the amazing benefits it can bring them, and then run into one of two barriers:

  1. I don’t know how
  2. I don’t have the time and/or money to learn a new skill

So after hearing this I don’t know, 1,287,321 times — I’ve spent a lot of time finding free resources to combat these comebacks…

And today, I wanted to share my 8 favorite ones with you.

Starting with:

Coding

From mobile apps to custom plugins, coding is a major component of online business and one that’s probably not going to go away for awhile.

This creates an amazing opportunity for anybody who has any interest in this field, and even though there’s a few free resources out there that I’ve come across…

One that continues to impress me time and time again is https://www.codecademy.com/

P.S. You can get paid a lot for this field as well, so if you have any interest — shut down Netflix for a week and get to learning…your future self will thank you for it.
