Contact previous employers

Set up a job book

Meet deadlines

Do the best job you can

Pay yourself a set wage



If you can pay yourself a set wage just as though you were employed, this means when you have a good money you leave some money in the bank and when you have a bad one you can still afford to pay yourself.
