When You don’t Feel Like Freelancing - 2
There is another very important thing you can do in free days and I forgot to mention it in my last post When You don’t Feel Like Freelancing.
That thing is: Extend your knowledge. Learn new technologies!.
And I selected to learn and switch to a better operating system. And thats, of course, Linux 
I had tried it as an amusement during studies but could not switch to it that time (We had Red Hat 6 & 7.2 at that time; must be 1999 or 2000). Will be writing a series of posts about my experience with Linux. I hope they will help you decide. Stay Tuned.
When You don’t Feel Like Freelancing
Sometimes in your freelancing career, you feel like not working (as I am facing this these days). But “just being free” will make you sad. So you have to find some way to use your energies.
And the best thing is to do some work for yourself! You can start a blog on the very technology you are in. Or do something that will ensure a stream of passive income. FreelanceSwitch has A (great) Guide to Making Passive Income.
And thats what I’m doing these days: putting some time into my project Folk Punjab. I just changed its design to a more attractive one. Will be changing the theme of this blog in a few days.
5 Months of Freelancing
Its been 5 months now since I left my regular programming job and started freelancing. And its been great! I have done 40+ projects on ScriptLance, 3 on GetACoder, and 5 on RentACoder in just 3 months. (took 2 months off). Its simply great.
And the best part of freelancing was freedom. I was free to take off whenever I wanted, to work whenever I wanted, to earn how much I wanted, and to spend with freedom. LESSON LEARNED: freelancing makes you happy, relaxed and responsible (will write about responsible part later).
