If you’re really determined, you can survive as a freelancing web worker. It takes a few months of trial and error, learning all you can, and finding the tools and processes that work for you. After that, most people are glad to find that they’ve survived the hard part, regardless of the obstacles and naysayers.
But it’s one thing to survive as a web worker. To thrive, on the other hand, happens on a completely different level.
Surviving versus thriving
Survival means staying alive, continuing your existence as a web worker. This isn’t necessarily an easy feat. Web working isn’t an easy decision to make, especially if you’re coming from a traditional office environment. With all the obstacles in the way of successful web working, it’s almost puzzling why it’s a growing trend. But if you can regularly pay your bills with the work that you do, and you can do it remotely, then you know you’ve got what it takes to survive.
Unlike survival, thriving is a mindset that allows you to fulfill more than just your basic needs. Thriving is about setting career goals , meeting them, and feeling a deep sense of personal fulfillment when it’s comes to your work.
So how does a web worker thrive?
