3 Things That Made My Transition To Freelance Easier
Before I get to how my transition to freelance was easier than most, I’ll step up on my soapbox. My first tip to anyone who is considering going freelance (or take any risk in your career) is to build up your Freedom (or FU) Fund. At its baseline, money is choice. If you have $1, you can: spend it, save it, invest it, or donate it. You have the choice of how to use your money. At the next level, money is freedom. When you have a freedom fund, you can leave a toxic job, relationship, or lifestyle. You have the freedom to take more financial risks. Okay, onto freelancing!
