I was never a fan of the job industry and I am not saying I am regretting it. In short, even as a self-employed, I am still not a fan of the entire work processes even when done at my assumed conveniences. Trust me, your assumed self employed freedom may even get worse off than a job when too much human responsibility is shifted to your shoulder and you are expected to manually deliver. Some people sleep in their workshops for days, it even becomes much more of a routine that they miss out entirely about themselves.
How do you always feel when people come to you and expect you to behave or operate in a particular pattern? Maybe those definitions of growth aside from securing a good job is the fact that you have expanded your self employed quest. Talking of expansion here, we are looking at you being able to do more skills than before.
I do have many of such experiences, no one really sees your incorporation mentality, their idea is, whatever you say you NOW do, you should be able to manually show working. Some general views mentality can keep you stigmatized. What they miss out on is the fact that I am an entrepreneur and a good one knows he will need more people for him to stay profitable. The main idea should not be on ‘can I do it’, on a singular term but rather ‘can we deliver’. I don't care how you will manifest my required service or product, my concern personally is on getting such at its best level.

Is a good job good? There is no doubting it depending on how you define a good job; ‘flexible timing, good and effective pay date and yes, some bonuses in-between’. How often do you find such a job? It is more like a scarce commodity, the labor market has become so overcrowded that employers of labor have tampered with wages and salaries over and over again. Adding to that, the working time even gets increased so that some become workaholics for pennies.
This was what brought about the mentality shift of personal job creation. Personally speaking, I have seen massive growth in the small and medium scale sector. Anyway, it expansion also comes at a cost because a lot of assumed SME entrepreneurs are not here for professional business but rather just mere survival.
It has brought about shattered pricing depriving true entrepreneurs of this sector the needed tactical revenue planning. How often you get words like; ‘others are doing it at a price 30 to 40% decrease from yours. I am not saying a hyped market is the future but without realizing a tangible profit, it gets difficult to scale when adding day to day business expenses.

So what is the next phase? I will say, if you cannot build something big, do yourself a favor of investing in something big. Or I can also state, even if you have something big, never fail to diversify. The new SME business that should be prioritized right NOW is shares buying. technology has made it quite easy to pick some good stocks in a few minutes.
Delving deeper, we can also talk of what web3 is currently delivering. For instance, we can see the behavior of Hive as an ecosystem, how the stake for rewards pattern is helping many to make their daily living.
In conclusion, to me, this is just an early phase of this, more of such ecosystems will rise in both the web2 and web3 industries. We are gradually seeing that blendings, are traditional banks not now very ready to offer crypto services on the go?.
Financial freedom is about first understanding the era; not secured jobs, not a self employed system, we are phasing into an era of investors; a stake for rewards pattern. The first was, you getting paid, the second was you paying yourself and the latter is about money working to keep you in ROIs.

I totally get what you're saying, that shift from grinding in jobs to actually building wealth through staking and decentralized ecosystems is real and exciting. You're on the right path, man. Keep patient and consistent 😘
Thanks for your views friend, this is really the future of financial freedom.
