Are You Self-Employed? Or Not?

I just read Steve Pavlina’s article “You Are Self Employed.” Steve always does a great job of communicating ideas like the one in this article in a way that is clear and motivating. What I really like about Steve’s articles is that he does not try to paint an unreal rose-colored-glasses view of his subject matter like many motivational writers often do. In fact, instead of screaming “You can do it!” Steve often seem to say something more like, “You’re stupid if you don’t and here’s why.” He obviously cares about the quality of his work and the well-being of his readers.
The idea of his article is that you are self-employed whether you work for someone else or not. If you work for someone else you are essentially a one-employee company selling 100% of your services to 1 client. Good luck with that.
