Being Self Employed

October 15, 2011 was my last day of ever having to work for someone else for a living. That's right; I walked. I am totally free and independent! No longer do I have to wake up at a set time to an annoying alarm clock. No longer am I'm obligated to working on someone's set schedule for me, doing what they say to do, when they say to do it and how to do it. No longer am I busting my ass aiding in making someone else rich; living the life they have wanted while I live from paycheck to paycheck. And it feels good to say that's all in the past now because I am totally free.

Now being self employed isn't all peaches and cream. You now have to work harder then you did when you where working for someone else. The success of your business falls solely on your shoulders. There's no one to depend upon but you. It's you behind the steering wheel in control and no one else. So stay alert. Keep up with your competitors. If their getting multiple five star reviews on site such as Yelp; read them, take from them to see why customers are praising them. Remember; you can always learn from something someone else is doing whether it is positive or negative and use it to your advantage.

People have said to me that they would love to become self employed but they don't know what to do. I've always responded by telling them to find something they have a passion for and love to do and if it's marketable; that's your answer. If you don't love what you're doing chances are it's going to reflect in your work and attitude thus setting the course for failure.

I have multiple five star reviews on Yelp and similar sites for my detailing because I simply love what I do. That's why at the end of the detail I get nothing but big smiles and BIG TIPS. Yes I love being my own boss. Once you get a taste of it you never want to go back! You can visit Aaron's Mobile Detailing to get an idea as to what I do and how I do it.
