How many people have talent and ambition and yet they're still trying to figure out how to make a living? - Sometimes, you just need to get started and to put your gifts and talents into use and move forward, create momentum.

People ask how they can do that and the simple answer is to work with the tools available in the marketplace to promote yourself and do some freelance work to get the ball rolling and to start make money come into your home.

The real advantage to freelance work is that it can happen now instead of taking months or maybe years to become a reality.

One of my mottos is "Now would be fine."

Letting cash flow to you is a good thing. It's encouraging and uplifting and feels a whole lot better than unemployement or job application rejection letters. It will help you get by or maybe even turnout to be the source of your entire living.

The places that you apply to freelance will all depend on your business skills. For example, many people with technical skills like web design, programming html, and skills like search engine optimization may offer their skills on a freelance basis at sites such a http://www.elance.com

We attended Blog World and New Media Expo in Las Vegas in November and were introduced to companies who were hiring those with experience as bloggers.

We met executives from http://www.Newstex.com

From the leadership at http://www.demandmedia.com and http://www.associatedcontent.com
