Freelance work is a competitive business and it requires the ability to stand out from the rest of the crowd. When you display initiative, innovation and drive it will lead to new endeavors and respect from your peers.
Often, tasks are assigned to us at work and we follow the instructions succinctly to complete the project in a timely manner. Following this type of "straight line process" eliminates the opportunity to be creative and show initiative. Next time you have an opportunity to support organizational goals implement your initiative to get things done in a unique and creative manner.
Innovation is derived from knowing exactly what the client wants and implementing a strategy geared towards success that is results driven. It also means conducting research to understand what worked in the past as well as identify the potential threats and weaknesses that may hinder you during the project. Innovation also means caring about your work product. When developing your strategy, take the time to know the strengths and value-added objectives of your work as well as its impact on the organization at large.
Drive. This one word describes the level of interest, encouragement and passion you have for your work. Avoid doing a sloppy job simply because the work you want to do is not readily available to you at that exact moment. Deliver on your projects so you can begin focusing on the type of work you really want to do. Then, concentrate on the tasks that you are grateful for accomplishing as you channel that positive energy into your organizational freelance opportunities each day.
