\u201cwhen you know your WHY, you\u2019ll know your WAY\u201d ~ Michael Hyatt.<\/em><\/strong> A simple and practical truth to put things into perspective. Yes, there are times you might need to take a little break due to various reasons including burnout. The goals are a good source of motivation to go back to whenever you need a new lease of inspiration.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n5. Be flexible with deadlines and pricing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
When you are starting out, it is alright to work on tighter deadlines and lower pricing for your side hustle as you are building from scratch. However, when your client base increases, it will be good to negotiate deadlines with your clients.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At times, a client might need your help at the last minute and by working on it, it might affect another client\u2019s work therefore it is important to know which deadlines are the critical ones and negotiate the non-critical ones for a slightly later date or time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is also recommended to raise your prices accordingly as you gain experience and exposure. Prices can be raised progressively. This is beneficial for 4 reasons. You get to work less for more, you are able to control the amount of work you are taking, you only work with quality clients and you have more time for recreation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In summary, your WHY, consistency, diligence and patience are the keys to side hustling successfully while working your full time job. The most important key is your passion. As Confucius said – \u201cchoose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life\u201d.\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Since the pandemic hit, more and more people are turning to side hustles while working their full time jobs.
