026 — Part Two | When to Make the Jump to Full-Time Freelance

In today's episode of the Design Break Podcast, we're going to discuss when to make the jump to full-time freelance—the second part of a two-part mini-series on the subject. This second part discusses how to make the jump when you're left with no other choice.

Some of what we cover in this episode includes:

1. Full-Time Freelance Doesn't Have to be Long-Term, it can be short-term if you want it to be.
   
2. You don't have the luxury to slack off or take time off, once you're trusted into the land of self-employment you need to get started yesterday.
   
3. Connect with other freelancers, those who have been doing it longer than you that you can get some support from both advice as well as mental support because it's about to get crazy!
   
4. Hustle is your mantra and time is both your best friend and enemy.
   
5. Don't take on every single project that comes your way, unless you absolutely have to.
