If you want to get into business on your own, this guide to the essentials of self-employment should help you turn your dream into reality. A handbook of practical, commonsense advice about how to start a solo business, and how to run it successfully, it aims to help you navigate your way through the most important aspects of being your own boss, but without weighing you down with lots of detail.
The book is also about discovering what you really want to get out of life, and how your work can be in harmony with the way you want to live. It's about more than being self-employed and getting paid for what you do - it's about the power of being small.
