I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m sure everyone has heard of that writer\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s strike that took place and as a result a lot of people in the entertainment industry were left without work. Since there is usually a lot of filming that is done here in Vancouver, I usually meet quite a few people who of course try to work at an unrelated job to generate an income during the downtime.<\/p>\n
On the flip side, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s interesting to see the difference in mentality that others would have where particular working professionals would instead create their own income source such as starting a workshop or offering coaching and consultation to others for a fee. <\/p>\n
The most common reason I hear on why people say they wouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t be able to do that is that they have no special talent to do things like that. You\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d be surprised at how many things you can do with your skills which may seem too natural for yourself to put any notable value on. For example, I would say having a second language is a very valuable asset to sell, which a lot of people think otherwise, as there are a lot of people who do say simple translations to earn money.<\/p>\n
I guess another thing that this should make you think about is that if you are in a good situation financially, you should still always prepare too just encase something happens. Can be wise to plan and explore when you have the means and stability to do so.<\/p>\n
