Most often, the service or item already exists. They are generally performing the same job as others they are supervising. However, some of the same qualities and skills may apply to the self-employed. You must be flexible; no more specified schedule or “passing the blame” to anyone else…you’re it. You will be responsible for all decision-making and solving all crises. If you are self-employed, you certainly need to be motivated. There’s no one to tell you what to do or when to do it. You must be able to plan ahead and use your time wisely. Page 24 of 51
