Gina Trapani: “How to Benefit From a Freelancer’s Mind-Set”

Trapani says traditional 9-to-5ers would do well to think like a freelancer. What’s the freelancer mindset?

1. Freelancers know how to hustle.
2. Freelancers are acutely aware of costs in time and money.
3. Freelancers do work for reasons other than money.
4. Freelancers build (and risk) their reputation with every job.

With each point, Trapani tells non-freelancers how they can apply these principles to their regular jobs and careers.
