Working for myself has renewed a work ethic and love of learning that I lost track of after finishing university. The five years I spent in the corporate world after getting my Computer Science degree were great for me in many ways (networking, learning about the business side of startups, paying off my student loans, etc.), but after a point I began to put my feet up and coast by on my existing technical skills instead of building new ones.\n\n Now that I'm freelancing, I'm constantly taking on projects that use technologies which are not only new to me, but are often new to the community ...in general. I used to sling low-level C code for Linux servers, which doesn't come up too often in most traditional freelance projects these days... so I taught myself how to make killer Rails and Sinatra apps, then Facebook apps, then iOS/Android apps... and now I'm knee-deep in Javascript MVC frameworks and Spotify applications.\n\n I've also been motivated to become much more productive with my tools and workflow, as any time that I save now directly benefits me (especially on fixed-rate projects).
