When you are a contractor, freelancer or consultant – there is always an enticement to take the job that will pay well but stifle any form of creativity, learning and accomplishment that you can bring to the project.

If you need a paycheck, take it.

But don’t take it forever, don’t be the one to hold yourself back.

Remember that you got into this so you could learn more, develop more and grow to be the best version of yourself.

So if you need to take the job that is going to stunt your growth, take it for a short period of time so the effects aren’t permanent.

Better yet, avoid it altogether.
