In reply to Ramesh.

Thanks for your personal reply Ramesh.

Before starting my business, I also tried my hand at freelancing and consulting.
I would recommend checking out freelancing websites like upwork.com and fiverr.com where you can earn income by indulging in your interests/skills. Other than online freelancing there are a lot of other earning avenues in India like giving tuitions, teaching, consulting, selling online, writing etc I will write an article in the future about ideas to earn income with work-life balance.

The best part is you can do this on the side while you still have a job so you don’t have to quit your job till you start making adequate money. this also allows you to hone skills that you are not getting exposed to at work.

Confidence comes when you realise that the alternative path is viable. Making an alternative path viable does not happen overnight. You’ll have to dip your toes in the alternative path slowly & steadily to test the waters but wearing the lifejacket of accumulated “skills” and “savings” 🙂
