Leave a comment

I’m a book fan, I enjoy reading business career, self-help and development books to keep my mindset on track and to enhance my personal growth. I also like to get stuck into a good fiction book, that I can get engrossed in and escape the real world.

Here are a five books I’ve read and recommend to keep you motivated, particularly if you are keen to be your own boss!

Think and Grow Rich  by Napoleon Hill – a book that features on many reading lists, and for a reason.

 

The Laptop Millionaire by Mark Anastasi– Is an enjoyable read where the author shares his story journey to becoming a laptop millionaire

 

Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyoaski– This no1 bestseller is an inspiring read!

 

Do Less Get More by Shaa Wasmund,  is another fave of mine, a real boss lady making her mark. This is a great read for those struggling to make time for the things that really matter to them.

 

How To Become A  Consultant: A Guide To Free yourself from the 9-5 by yours truly Ebony Gayle. Now I have to throw my own book in there – Its a quick read to get you motivated, a no-nonsense guide to free yourself from the 9-5 using your current skills.

 

Time to escape the rat race

Leave a comment

A study last month of 5,000 workers concluded that self-employed people are more successful in their careers and felt happier in their job. * So why don’t more people do it? Is it fear, financial pressures or the lack of know-how?

As a successful consultant myself I can say that its a combination of the above, but with planning and passion, you can free yourself and it doesn’t have to be high risk or a fancy idea. Becoming a consultant can be a simple way to create the life you want by selling what you already do well, on terms that suit you.

I used my expert skills and knowledge having worked in communications, PR and marketing for well over a decade to become a consultant. You too, can enjoy a rewarding career, financial success and that important work life balance by taking this route and using the skills you have.

I  felt  trapped and depressed in the past in my  9-5 job which is why I decided to set up my own consultancy with just £100.  Five years on, I have no regrets, I enjoy the empowerment and challenge of working for myself, and  I’m much more happy.

 

I am keen to share my insights and experience with other people seeking to escape the rat race. My new book ‘How To Become A Consultant: A Guide To Free Yourself From the 9-5’ is a no-nonsense guide which gives practical advice on how to set yourself up as consultant and establish a work routine that fits in with your ideals and lifestyle.

The book covers all aspects of becoming a consultant from identifying your niche and registering yourself as self-employed to planning, establishing your fees and promoting your business.

I share practical information to guide you through the process and as well as insight into my own journey so you can avoid the pitfalls and succeed in your venture!

How to Become a Consultant is the essential guide for anyone who wants to become a consultant.
