Getting Started - Preparing for Consulting

This season is focusing on lessons learned from a consulting career.  A lot of the content can be found in the Develpreneur book.  However, we will go a little deeper into getting that side hustle going.  This episode kicks off the season by looking at some things to do in preparing for consulting or at least taking control of your career. Preparing for Consulting or Your Career It turns out that a lot of the work you need to do for a side hustle is just as crucial for your career.  The key steps are things that will help you create a productive workspace and then avoiding a search for common tools (pens, pencils, charger cables, etc.).  These are things you may already have laying around that just need to be organized, or you may need to buy some of these things over the years.  I will discuss some items, but you can build your list by keeping track of what you use on a typical day or week of work. Common Items To Forget If you start your career with an employer that is good at providing you with the tools you need, then it is easy to overlook essential items.  With that in mind here are some things you need to have available.
