I lied and made Money through freelancing.
You should also lie.
The first thing you should learn in this world is that you can’t know everything.
You might have learned several programming languages, maybe even some niche topics like web development or app development. Then one day, you land a client, and he says he needs you to develop a desktop application.
All these years, you waited for the perfect freelance project, and finally, you got a client who wants something you don’t know.
That’s when you should LIE.
Not me, not you, not anyone can be a master of everything. Sometimes, you will be asked to work on something unfamiliar. Your first response should never be:
“Hey, I know this and that, but I don’t know what you’re asking for.”
That’s mistake number one.
Never wait for the perfect project where you know everything in advance. In most scenarios, you’ll get a project that involves technologies you’ve never even heard of.
Instead of saying, “Oh sorry, I can’t do that,” say:
“I’ve got this.”
Then Google or use ChatGPT to dig into it
