The Brutal Truths about Going Freelancing You Will ONLY Learn the Hard Way
Oh! There’s plenty of money to make in it.
YouTube videos, articles and pop-up ads…They all glorify the idea of quitting a stable 9–5 job to set up a freelance business. Why slave for another when you can rake in millions, right?
And before you know it, you’ve risen to bait.
You’ve already started fantasizing.
You’ll be the boss. You’ll choose your working hours. Work from anywhere. Why go far? You’ve even counted the dollars you’ll make per month. The amounts you’ll save and all the exotic vacations you’ll take.
We feel bad to be the ones to break it to you, but you should probably stop building those castles in the air.
Freelancing is a brutal world. The many so-called-successful-freelancers out there lure you to jump on the bandwagon, but do not mention a word about the struggles of being a freelancer.
Yes, you heard it right. It is a STRUGGLE, EVERY SINGLE DAY, unless you learn the ropes real quick.
