10 lessons for freelancers 10 quick lessons for freelancers: #6

Freelance Advisor and Web Consultant Leif Kendall continues his mini-series of ten lessons learnt during his time freelancing.

These will be super-short micro-posts to get you thinking… Feel free to share your comments

Lesson 6: It’s a fight

This thought is probably more useful to people considering a freelance career, rather than those who’ve already taken the plunge:
Freelancing is not an easy option. Freelancers are constantly finding jobs, losing jobs, finding jobs, losing jobs… Freelancing means fluctuating fortunes, financial roller-coaster rides, and a constant fight for success.
And I love all that – but it’s definitely not easy.

<< Lesson 5: Don’t rely on anything
