But for a lot of us, we could use the money, or weāre trying to build up our portfolios and careers. When a client comes knocking on our door, how do we know if we should say yes or no? How can we be certain weāre making a good decision?
In this video, Iām going to give you five questions you can ask yourself to know with more certainty whether you should take on that iffy job. Iām all about saying no to the wrong jobs so I can say yes to more right ones. That being said, we canāt spend all our time waiting for the perfect job to arrive, so stick around to the end, since I will be giving some tips on how to transform almost any job into the right one.
