Personal reflections:
I want to choose freelancing as my career path.
But at the same time I should understand that freelancing is not easy freedom rather it is disciplined freedom.
I need to seriously accept that:
- There will be no boss to push me.
- No fixed deadlines unless I create them.
- No one to check my progress.
That means I am fully responsible for myself. For this I must:
- Stay consistent every day .
- Build strong self-motivation.
- Develop self-accountability .
