I’m a strong believer and supporter of freelancing. But I’ve also reached that point in my life where freelancing has gotten me this far, but won’t get me much further.

Freelancing has done amazing things for my career, but I think every freelancer eventually starts to grow out of freelancing. That’s about where I feel like I am.

Let me explain.

I read quite a lot of articles focused toward entrepreneurs and small business owners. I also follow quite a few of them on social media. One clear thing stands out in pretty much all of the things I read – they focus so much on the goals, or an end game, or a milestone, and less about the journey you’re on to get there.

Having goals to work toward is great: they keep you motivated and they help you grow. But in an endless pursuit to reach them – we start to lose sight of what we really should focus on day in and day out.
