I have a blog post today that I cannot believe I have to even talk about. It is #FundMeFriday and before I get into this topic, I have to ask you, did you fund yourself today? I hope you deposited something, even $10, into your savings account. I hope you have reached the point that you no longer are finding excuses why you could not make a deposit and instead, you are now finding a few extra dollars to add to your normal weekly deposit and you are funding your savings each week.
That being said, my topic today is free work and why you need to KNOCK IT OFF. Everyone wants something for free. They want you to take your precious time and they want you to perform some type of work for them then, they want it done for free. Here is the list of reasons they give you for thinking they deserve a freebie and you should want to do the work for free. The first one is, hey, we are related. Why should I pay you? Or, I lost my job and do not have money. Or, it does not cost you anything to do this so why should I pay you? Or, you make so much money. Do not be so greedy. The list of reasons someone will give you to do free work for them is endless. You have to stop this immediately or you will never reach your financial goals.
Learn to value yourself and learn to value your time. If you want to discount your work for someone then do that but stop giving away your time. You worked hard on your talents so you should only deal with people who will appreciate you and what you have to offer.
