Summary: Many people become self-employed to have more freedom and flexibility. Not as many take full advantage of those benefits though. It’s common for people to find themselves self-employed in ways that make them slaves to their desks. They may have removed their old boss, but they ride themselves just as hard as their old boss did. Others find themselves swimming in free time and squander it on low-quality rewards like TV and web surfing, the same rewards they took after working at a regular job. So where is that extra freedom? A freedom that isn’t exercised doesn’t feel particularly freeing. http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/2012/08/exercise-your-freedom-fully/
