“Netflix and chill”, pretty cool stuff when you’re free but do you know what’s cooler? Well, how does “upscaling skills” and “growing your talent” sounds to you? There comes a difference between just spending your time and investing it.

“Investing”, a term which until now, you’ve probably heard only when it comes to money, holds a greater importance when it comes to time. The word “spending” means that you’re using something up to exhaust it and you’re not really looking to get back anything productive. When you invest in something you expend resources, but you do so with an expectation of getting a good return. So how do we invest our time apart from our full time jobs?

Start looking up your free time through a different lens. In a world filled with a plethora of opportunities that are immeasurably wider than your netflix screens, you can upscale your talent, upgrade your skills from anywhere in the world.  With the digital age upon us, online presence is gaining a strong foothold in our personal as well as our work life.

A simple change in the perspective is all that we need. As we have ample amount of free time staying at home. Increase your bandwidth and business opportunities by socializing and networking. Connect with your friends, family and ex-colleagues and attend a few networking events while strongly augmenting your online presence on social media platforms like instagram, linkedin, facebook, twitter.

There are opportunities which you can explore outside of your cubicles as well. So if you are determined to thrive and grow, start freelancing.  Freelancing enables you to connect with potential clients globally while you sit at home and get the projects you wish to work upon. Consider your portfolio just like your favourite pizzas in which you like a combination of certain spices and veggies. But here’s the best part, you can update your portfolio as per your desired skills. Enroll on Workafy and explore opportunities to work upon some amazing projects.
