    Hi, Apoorva

    I am a freelancer as well, and i had the same question back then. Let me know what do you want to understand about freelancing?

    I wanted to understand the pros and cons of it, since you are a freelancer you can explain it better.

      Cool. So, Freelancing for me has been a fun ride until now. I have become more independent to work. My income depends upon how much I work and not by days or months, and most importantly, I can choose the kind of work I want to do. I think it’s better than working as an employee until and unless you are ready to upgrade your skills with time and have patience when you don’t get any work. As I said, it’s a fun career option with challenges.

        Exactly! I am also a freelancer, and I find freelancing very suitable for me. I am doing m work independently. My income is proportional to my work. But, there are times when I am unable to find clients. So, yes, it is essential to have patience and act positively.

    Hi, Apurva.

    I would suggest you take your time to decide whether you should make freelancing a full-time online freelancer or work as a side-job for passive income. Freelancing comes with its taste of good and bad, but it comes with great perks of freedom, money, and peace of mind when it’s done right.

    Freelancing is absolutely the new trend.

    Few years back, I was working as a photographer for a Mumbai based Magazine. I was enjoying my work there, but financial pressure sometimes forces people to take risks. I took the same risk by quitting my job and jumping into freelancing.

    To be honest, It took some time for me to quit my job as I was not wholly sure about freelancing. But, when I saw myself growing independently and without restrictions. It allowed me to be a freelancer.????

    To sum up, the freelance industry is booming in India, and we should use this opportunity to develop our skillset.✌

    <style type=”text/css”></style>Welcome to hell. I’m kidding ahah. But freelancing is much harder than it seems . First of all, it’s about self discipline. In most cases you have a deadline an it seems pretty acceptable but there is always this procrastinators desire to do everything at the very last moment. Please, hear me now, NEVER leave work for later. I know that people who start freelance are usually running away from the routine but you need it. Establish the one that is suitable for you. Another aspect is finances. The salary is never fixed. You need to learn how to incorporate yourself and manage your income. Save money when the month is good. You never know what will happen next. Welcome.
