A lot of our readers already have some experience in freelancing, even more people would like to try their hand at this activity. And this is not surprising, freelancing has a number of tempting features that make people leave their warm places in offices and go for free bread. What is it that attracts them so much to the path of a free worker?

This is far from the first appeal to the topic of freelancing on the pages of a Life Hacker, which is not at all surprising — the transition to a state of full or partial self-employment is probably one of those global life hacks that radically change our lives. The previous articles (once, twice) were mainly aimed at the negative aspects of freelancing, so today we want to restore balance and talk about the pleasant features of this business.

1. Satisfaction of your creativity

Any person has the ability to create and the need for self-expression. Yes, absolutely anyone, including taxi drivers, tractor drivers, clerks, officials and policemen. However, the harsh prose of life, as a rule, does not contribute to the manifestation of individuality and creative abilities. Someone in this situation finds salvation in vodka, someone gives an outlet to his creative self in the form of a hobby.

Going freelance is a great opportunity to tell the world about your ideas and find a use for your abilities. If someone else likes your ideas, then you will even get paid for them. Although in fact, the opportunity to find your inspiration , to realize yourself as a creative person costs more than any money.

2. Getting additional income

Freelancers often have to work much more than their office counterparts, but this is compensated by large incomes. There are many stories when, after going freelance, a person received not only independence, but also financial well-being. Although, let's not dissemble, there are enough opposite stories. In any case, if something goes wrong, you can always go back to full-time employees.

If your main job can be described with the words "I pretend to work; the bosses pretend to pay me money," then God himself told you to try freelance bread. At least as an additional income. It definitely won't get any worse.

3. New career options

The world is changing before our eyes and those professions that were extremely in demand yesterday are no longer needed today. Or maybe once upon a time, twenty years ago, you made the wrong choice and are now forced to pay for it by working in an area that you are not interested in. Now you will get a chance to fix it.

Thanks to freelancing, you can make a tricky knight move and try yourself in a completely new area for you. It all depends on your talents and hard work. Believe me, if your work can impress the customer, then he will ask you last of all about the availability of a diploma of education and work experience in the specialty.

4. Working from home

This is one of the most significant and attractive reasons for anyone who has not tried such a regime in practice. In fact, homework has both its pros and cons. But since this article is dedicated to the bright side, let's remember the good:

  • You save your time. Everyone who is now in traffic jams on the way to work or back, this point is very clear.
  • You save money. Transportation costs, lunches, gatherings with employees, and so on.
  • You save your nerves. There is no need to worry about being late, the boss will not yell at you for the report, you are no longer interested in corporate squabbles and sit-ins.
  • Free schedule. No comments are required.

All you need to organize a home workplace is a stable fast Internet, a phone number, an email address and, possibly, a printer. Agree, these are far from exorbitant requirements, although for some specialties this list can vary greatly both in one direction and in the other.

5. Freedom of movement and rest

All lower-level corporate employees know how much effort it takes to go on vacation at the desired time. Priority, avrals, approvals. It's even worse if your other half needs to go through a similar process.

Freelancers, especially those working online, are completely devoid of such problems and can take a vacation at a time when they need it. Or they may not take it. And continue to work while physically being in Thailand, Montenegro or Istanbul. A great prospect, isn't it?

This is what the bright side of freelancing looks like. If you think that this oil painting lacks important strokes, then we are waiting for your comments, comments, personal experience.
