Even if you don’t want to work in an office every day, you should consider starting your own business.
That’s right, you can be your own boss! If you have a hobby that you are very good at, you might be able
to earn a living doing it. For example, if you will have a talent for web design, you could sell your
services to small companies. To get started, choose a company that you know about and show them
some examples of web pages you’ve designed. Unless/If they like your work, offer to design a web
page for them for a small fee. If you will do a good job the first time, they will probably hire you again.
They may also recommend you to other businesses. Soon you’ll have a lot of customers contacting you,
and you’ll be running your own business. Even if you don’t make a lot of money, you’ll feel satisfied and
successful. You will also be doing something you love. Running your own business can be a lot of work,
but it’s worth it. If people will enjoy their jobs, they are usually happier. You won’t know for sure
unless you are going to try.
