As freelancers, we wear a lot of hats. Some days, I feel like translation is the easy part of my job: the harder parts being my roles as an accountant, marketing director, customer relations manager, office ergonomics expert, and so on, and so on, not to mention the rewarding but time consuming gigs as a wife, mom, daughter, fiend, chef, and sub-optimal housekeeper. Based on persona experience, here are some tips to help manage your time more effectively. They range from quick-and-dirty to big picture, so just bear with me as I jump around!
