As much as I know I do need a great deal of experience, networking, financial stability and mentoring that comes from working in an organisation, I know I really don't like the regimented 'go to work in the morning and come back in the evening' and so would most likely come back to freelancing!
So e-Learning freelancers, kindly find space to share these tips... It definitely would help some people like myself decide or prepare for this phase!
Thanks guys.

Hi Daniel - I think there's a lot of respect that comes from working for yourself. That being said, there are always peaks and valleys in e-learning. A lot of things I read about making the leap to full-time freelancing said to just do it, you'll never feel ready. While I agree partially with that statement, I stand behind the planning phase a bit more strongly than many freelancers I know. Before you make the jump to full-time freelancing, establish relationships with several repeat clients, and save a financial buffer, because your bills won't go away, and while many clients pay regularly, some pay on a +30 type of schedule, and your landlord or mortgage broker won't want to wait an extra month to be paid :P
