I will make this lesson free. So if you didn't buy the course that you can check if it's worth it even more, I will talk about the very important thing here. The first thing you should consider is freelancing for me being a freelancer and becoming a freelancer means you break out of employment and have your previous habits of working. It takes a lot of bravery. If you already did that, Congratulation, if you adjust before, you might consider these things I will talk about. I will tell you, in my experience, what are the pros and cons of being a freelancer?

I will let you decide if you think you are not ready yet. To become a freelancer simply don't buy this course yet. But if you already thinking about it and hesitate, maybe this course is for you. And the We'll help you to make the decision. One of the first thing is you set your own schedule. You decide when to work, when to wake up, when to have a shower, you can do whatever you want in your time, you can go to the gym, you are free.

That's the free part in freelancer, you can lead a free life. On the other hand, you might work day and night and weekends, just to pay the bills and just to keep up the freelance life. So your lead on the ever parade, your freedom will disappear, because you are just all day working and it's not freelancing. So you're not just being in an office till five o'clock. You work all day long. That's one way to be a freelancer.

You are free to choose your clients and projects. You can work only with the people you like only work on the projects you love. Like me, I ditched designing websites after almost a decade doing them. And I'm just illustrating and do logo design now because that's what I love. And I'm really, really good at it. And you have no boss, you are your own boss.

You choose the client. If you don't like the client, you leave the client simple. But on the other hand, every single client you choose to work with is your boss, they will tell you what to do, they will send you emails, they can be annoying, you have to deal with them and deal with them professionally. If you want to keep them and you want to get paid and do the job you love. Another great thing is that you can be very creative. This is a free life as I said.

So you can learn a lot about marketing and do your own marketing. You can do the work you love you do the work yourself and you enjoy it so much. You get paid and do the paperwork. So you learn a lot of stuff about how to deal with clients. It's a great experience, you develop new skills, so you can be very creative with this. On the other hand You have to be very proactive.

You have to do your own market because no one else will do it for you there is no company covering you in this. You have to do all the work yourself. Because you are a freelancer which means most of the time you work alone on a project or a part of a project and you have to get paid, because I always say I have hobbies like living in houses and eating food, I need to be paid and no one else is guaranteeing my payment only me I have to go after each clients and get my payment and payment is important. You should understand that if you are a freelancer, you have no monthly earning limit. If you do great jobs, and several big clients or you push your time limit, you have no earning limit. You can earn many, many times more as you would earn with the same job as an employee.

It's great. There is no income ceiling. Also, you don't have a regular paycheck. There is no one sending you regularly thousands of dollars. Every month or every week, you get paid when you finish a job, or you get paid up front, I will talk about this. You have no regular income, at least not in the beginning, and you have to build it up.

And that's not an easy task. One great thing about freelancing the last one I will talk about now is that you don't have to commute to a workplace every day. You can work from home or from a cafe, you can lead your own lifestyle. You don't have to be with all the people in the morning on the bus. You don't have to get up early just to travel one hour to get to work in place. You get up you go to a local cafeteria and work there and be yourself and do the job you love.

On the other hand, you might be alone the whole day, and sometimes for days, you're not gonna talk to anyone. And for a lot of people, this can be heavy, and you have to take care about the social part yourself. It seems that a lot of us freelancers are leaving us air meets, but we are not. We move out and we talk to people but it's your task to do so. You Cannot mingle with colleagues in the workplace. Because you don't have that.

I was just telling you a few things which make a freelance life awesome or heavy. It's up to you to decide if these things are heavy for you or not. It's up to you to decide if you want to challenge yourself or not. It's up to you to decide if you want to live up to your potential. Make the work you love, and earn much more as you could before, learn new skills, or you stay as an employee and work in a seemingly secure environment as you did before.
