	Description:		I didn’t “find my passion” until I was 34. If only I could have learned about online freelancing in my 20s…my entire life would have been different. That’s what Mike did…While his friends were graduating college and getting 9-5 office jobs, Mike decided to make a living on Upwork. Doing what he loves. He rejected the term “starving artist” and decided to be a well paid artist instead. He went on Upwork and made it happen. Of course, there’s more to it than that. So I sat down with Mike to get all the details…and I recorded the conversation and turned it into Episode 1 of the all new Freelance To Win podcast. In this first episode, you’ll learn: How you can get paid well to do work you enjoy How Mike charges more than his competitors, many of whom have decades more experience The mindset of successful freelancers vs. ones who struggle Mike’s job before he became a freelance video editor (hint: it had nothing to do with video editing) How financial pressure can give you a huge advantage The “turning point” that led Mike to online freelancing Why Mike had a negative knee jerk reaction when he first heard about Upwork, and how that changed The unconventional method Mike used for getting his first client How Mike gets repeat business from multiple clients who keep him busy week in and week out One of the best (and non-obvious) pieces of advice I’ve ever heard about online freelancing The “poker move” Mike uses to charge clients above average prices And more… The post Death of the starving artist (with Mike Nguyen) appeared first on Freelance To Win.
