Where is your Freelance Writing Stuff?
If you are a freelance writer you know exactly what the title of this post means. Simply put, you have “stuff†that you need to get through the workday. It may not be a lot, but no matter who you are there are probably a few things that you rely on.
I realized just how important my stuff is over the past week or so. I am in the process of moving into a new home. As I was packing up my office this weekend it was easy to see that there are a few things I rely on as a freelance writer.
No matter what, I need my computer. While this is true for me, most other freelance writers feel the same way. If I don’t have my computer there is no way to get work done – it is as simple as that.
Along with my computer, I also need my paper files, USB drives, and to-do/goal lists. The nice thing about all this is that it can be nicely packed into a couple of boxes. This just goes to show you how easy it is to be a freelance writer on the move. I don’t have any inventory or an advanced system holding me back. Instead, I can take my business anywhere and have it set up in no time at all.
The point of this post is to make you realize how important some of your stuff really is. While you need to keep all of your belongings in a safe place, there is no denying that some things are higher priority than others.
Do you have all of your stuff organized so that you can easily get at it when need be? If not, try to get better organized today. My past move made me realize just how important some of my stuff is to my success.
