The nature of work may be changing, but that doesn't mean we should have to get used to precarious work, erratic types of employment and short-term, low paying jobs. To create a positive economic future, we need to look at employment and business with a more flexible mindset. If we teach our workforce that freelancing is a viable option that can help them build a foundation for a stable, sustainable income and high quality of life, we can diversify our sources of income and economy one independent worker at a time.
