working for a company or working for yourself.
To me, it is quite the same.
For those who experience both would agree that it can mutually support each other.
Mutually support to established your career.
For example,
work for a company
sharing blog post of what i believe in,
or volunteering for a non profit organisation.
It’s still work if the things you do gives benefits for some one else. Right ?

Some would say, you are not focus, how can your career take off when you keep on changing lanes all the time.
Well, on the contrary, each industry or each skill I have learn eventually serves each other.
Administration management serves my discipline in understanding format, guidelines, based learning of processes and layers of managing a project.
Advertisings serves me knowledge about branding, the process of marketing, translation into communication and social media integration or any other channels.
