One often overlooked aspect of full-time, salaried, in-office jobs is routine. Your tasks may change from day to day, but there’s a built in “start”, “end” and general structure to your work day. When you start freelancing, then suddenly you’re free to leave in the middle of the day, or start late, or just take a whole day off whenever you feel. There’s no set routine, and no expectations except those that you set for yourself. Great, right?
