 Virtual Careers / Self-Employment – Self-Assess Or Self-Destruct


The world of work is changing. With the development of technologies that allow individuals to work from anywhere, anytime, many people find themselves forced (or attracted) to a virtual career as an entrepreneur or self-employed person. The thing about this new way of life is that it can be hard to know where your skills intersect with people’s needs – and when you match, it might not be in the more traditional sense of employment.

This blog post will explore how to go about choosing a career path that suits you best by examining where your skills intersect with what is needed in a growing online economy. Online work has changed the way we see work. There are opportunities and challenges that come with this change, but understanding online work can empower you to act!

Did you know?

The number of people who do some sort of freelance or self-employed work is on the rise. In 2014, 38% of workers in North America did some form of freelance or self-employed work.* And the number of people who primarily work from home is growing as well!**

I spent many years working for other people. I worked hard, I did my best and delivered outstanding results at every company I worked for and with every client I had. But there was something missing – a sense that what I was doing mattered.

Virtual careers can bring a sense of entrepreneurship to those who want it. It frees you from working in the same job, doing the same thing, every single day. It allows you to focus on what you do best and grow your skills faster than ever before.

When I looked at my life, I saw that I was most fulfilled when I was self-employed – and this included freelance work as well as running my own business. I felt unstoppable when it came to my creativity and my ability to be innovative in finding new ways of delivering results to clients – even if I was self-employed. I felt truly alive!

So after being in this situation for a while, I wanted to find a way to share with others what was working for me. I wanted to tell others about that part of my life that made me feel so alive and fulfilled. I wanted other people to experience what it's like to be self-employed and have the freedom of being their own boss.

I had no idea how I would do this, but one thing was certain: it was going to happen. So I began to write posts on my blog. In the posts, I shared information about how other people could begin their own journey into self-employment and virtual careers – whatever their skills or passions may be.

And today, I'm still sharing my experiences on my blog. That's because they're relevant, they're valuable and the tips and tricks I share with others are reliable. Plus I love learning new things – that's what keeps me coming back to life!

But I've learned so much more too! Over time, as more people began to contact me to ask me questions about being self-employed or running a virtual business, it became clear that there was an interest in learning more about this subject matter. The biggest question that people had was ‘How can I do this?’

So this is what prompted this article.
