Want To Work For Yourself?
“The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new.” – Socrates
Do you dream of being your own boss, working for yourself or running your own business? Do you have a hobby that you enjoy so much you believe that you could earn a living for yourself from it? Perhaps you have a new idea that you would love to turn into a business? This is what you need to start on your self employed journey: dreams, belief and ideas!
Working for yourself can seem daunting, you are good at the thing you want to do but there are so many more questions! Where do you start? How do you promote your business? How do you pay your taxes?
