My three biggest areas that need work out of those tips are: Business Hours, Workspace, and Frame of Mind.

My business hours are all over the place, my workspace is less than ideal. And my frame of mind? Ugh. But you’ve given me a lot to think about. “Think like a business owner and not someone who is looking for work.” What a great way to think.

Thanks for a great post.

One of the major differences between a job and a business is to look to expand beyond yourself. At a (full time) job, if you get sick, you likely get paid. As a freelancer, you don’t work, you don’t eat — until you build a business that can operate without you when necessary.
