The past few years have been a real test in terms of working with new responsibilities. When you are self-employed, there are many important points to consider. You can do something yourself, but most often you need to find contractors, explain what to do, and control a bunch of processes. I'll be honest: sometimes it's hard, but it hardens me.Also, conducting negotiations with representatives of various professions, from a doctor, a builder, or a bus driver to the heads of large companies, gives confidence in one's abilities and reveals a new "self."This path began back in 2015. I just started getting interested in cryptocurrencies, and investing in general. A few years later, I am already working for ICO startups, companies that provide consulting services, etc. The moment when I began to notice things that I would have done differently, better in my opinion, became very important. That's why I went into conditional "freelancing," which I do successfully to this day.
