Resident freelancers - Guilty from Accepting Short Projects? Don't Be!

If you're like me, who has a rockin' cool, kind client-boss for your regular stint, you will feel terribly guilty to accept short projects and earn extra.  I have been with this client-boss for some time now and appreciate the work and the friendly collegial relationship.  I felt working for other people takes away the time I should be spending on that client's company.

However, prices of basic commodities are not the same as when I started working for this person.  I knew I needed to earn extra, and I can do it doing what I do best - Working online tasks, as well.

And wait, it's not like I'm slacking off for that person's company.  It's just that I spent about 12 hours a day on my regular job.  I just had to cut it and make it, say, 8hours (as it should be X_X)

But then, I noticed a pattern when I started accepting projects.

I found that I had nothing to be guilty about. Accepting projects also  benefits my regular online employment.

Weh...  Really?  Yes.

When I have short gigs, I am constantly inspired to work on my regular job and do so the shortest time possible, so I can work on my projects.  As when I work on my gigs, I am inspired because it is always fresh and new.  I also do my best to work fast, because I profit when a job is finished immediately.

So the next day, when I report to my resident work, I feel happy, fresh and inspired to do the work.  

Both clients win.  And I win with my extra earnings, and my moxie is refilled each day as well.
