 Photo by Green Chameleon on Unsplash So after 2017's whirlwind of wedding planning and settling into our new home, the new year brought the huge & terrifying decision: going full-time freelance. With my husband's support & an enthusiastic bark from our dachshund, I am my own business now! Omg, guys.
The past few days have been the first time I have ever solely worked from home after years & years of commuting to the city (or further!). Let me tell you that this has been exhilarating, terrifying, exciting...but mainly I have already learned that self-discipline is key. My goal from 8am - Noon is to absolutely not be lazy. I figure if I can at least get something done with my first cup of coffee for the day, I'm on the right track. So far this plan has been working.

I truly believe that anyone from business executive to freelance writer should read this inspiring book.
