What I Learned in My First Month as a Freelancer
Setting up shop, creating income streams, attracting my first clients and planning
Earlier this year I said I’d quit my job, go travel and then start freelancing. I did one and two, and now I’m pursuing my third promise to myself.
It’s scary and fun. It’s challenging and rewarding. And I think it’s a lifestyle that fits me. I like to be flexible and do what I want whenever I want. I know, very millennial of me, but the opportunities are here!
Plus, there’s a reason I want to do this. I want to create an environment in which I get to spend more time actually writing, work fewer hours while earning sufficient income. And I know it’s possible.
Ever since I got back from South America, I had the travel blues, but I also needed to start building a business. A business with me as the sole employee.
I’ve learned a lot in this month of starting and I hope I can help other people who are considering to start for themselves too.
