I have been self-employed for about 2 months now. It’s an entirely different beast! Even on those days when I feel unmotivated, I really have to keep at it, because it’s MY business on the line. Much different from all those days I spent playing games on the internet at my corporate job. :)
As of Monday, I am also officially a freelancer! My old corporate job asked if I could do some work for them from home. Yayyy! The money I make doing the (well-paid) freelancing job for 4-6 weeks will allow me to remain self-employed through the summer doing what I really love. Woo hoo!
