RE: The worst part about freelancing

in #freelance7 years ago

Freelancing sounds good in theory, but few are those who can receive enough income to sustain themselves, without spending huge amounts of time working.

It's nice to do what you want whenever you want, but that feeling usually fades away after months of stress and different methods you constantly try to increase your income without spending even more time working.

I guess you just need to find your lifestyle, just as me. If you have the discipline to work when you need to, and a lot more than other people sometimes, then freelancing may be for you. If not, a normal job sounds a lot better.

After around 4 years of freelancing, I'm starting to think that a normal job is ten times easier than freelancing, at least when it comes to sustaining yourself.

Sort:  

Just some things you realize when you are in the position and not the one just looking I suppose. Still, I wouldn't mind satisfying the curiosity when it's practical to get the chance. Thanks for the chat :D

Well, if you get the chance, and you decide to become a full time freelancer, allow me to give you one piece of advice that you may already know: make sure you have quite a lot of money saved, just in case things don't work out the way you want them to.

Other than that, good luck and have fun! :)
