Contemplating self employment

[Jessica4585]

I'm interested in being self employed.

What books are most useful for preparing for this endeavor?

My plan is to do residential remodeling. Although I would also like to try out being a residential finish carpentry subcontractor building stairs, built ins and trimming out new builds. Can one person pursue both tracks or is it not really feasible to be a sub while you're running your own remodeling projects?

For what it's worth, I'm not interested in having more than one employee. And I don't really even want an employee unless it becomes necessary to hire one.

Please set me straight.

I've been contemplating the idea of self-employment, drawn by the prospect of greater autonomy and the ability to pursue projects that align with my passions. The flexibility to set my own schedule and work customized drayage solutions LA on my own terms is appealing, though I recognize the challenges that come with it, such as managing finances, finding clients, and staying disciplined. Still, the potential for personal growth and creative freedom makes self-employment an exciting path to consider.
