Are you Freelance Ready?
Most freelance assignments start small--non-staff providers are hired to complete specific outsourcing projects. But when these freelance specialists prove to their outsourcing employers that they can be relied upon, there is soon an increased allowance for more remote working hours and the performance of increasingly vital tasks. Soon freelance providers may find themselves fully integrated with the outsourcing organization's in-house staff, thus marking a change in the relationship between outsourcing employer and freelance provider.

I recently read about this study conducted by Nobel Prize recipient Daniel Kahneman. He believed we would all feel a lot better if we spent our time more wisely. He conducted a diary study with 909 women in Austin, Texas. He asked them to record all the activities they did during the day and then rate how happy they were while doing them. He then had them narrow the list to their least favorite activities. Unfortunately those activities accounted for nearly half of the participants' waking hours. Not surprisingly his advice was fairly simple. He said "Reorganize your life to be in situations that you'd rather continue than stop."
