The Surgeon Principle for Freelancers

[madtrader]

Freelancing isn’t rock-hauling.
Clients pay for the years you invested mastering your craft — not the minutes it takes to deliver.
Whether your work takes 10 minutes or 10 hours doesn’t matter.
The value lives in the outcome.
Anchor your price to results, not time.
Memorize this line and use it often:
“That depends. What would you like to see happen?”

[Nahid Hossen]

Specialists earn more because they solve deeper problems, not broader ones.

Niching down isn’t limiting—it’s a competitive advantage.
