Making a career as a freelancer is not easy without a doubt. First you need to be very proficient at your craft and then you’ll have to find clients. The easiest way to do that is getting an account at fiverr or upwork but I heard upwork went full crap lately. You’ll have to spend from your own pocket just so you could send a message to your potential clients. I think it is not worth to use upwork anymore.
I think it is best to work under someone else for a while till you figure out everything about your job and then start your own company. Save some money while you wage slaving and use that money to get social media ads for your business later. That’s a better strategy.

Can freedom and a career truly go hand in hand? What are the deeper reasons behind our choice or inclination towards freelancing?
Not much different from other jobs because deciding to become a freelancer means being ready to compete, looking for resources where you have access, being mentally prepared because every field of work still has demands. Although freelancing upholds freedom in terms of time, it does not mean that you are lazy with the tasks that will be carried out. 
Can freedom and a career truly go hand in hand? What are the deeper reasons behind our choice or inclination towards freelancing?
Freelancing is still a career even if there’s more freedom to it than being employed by a company or someone else. Some people feel like they do not thrive in an environment where they aren’t able to do anything freely. The main reason I can think of why someone would decide to be a freelancer is time. When you are in a company, your time is tied to them. It is constricting and it doesn’t allow much to do anything else in life. Meanwhile with freelancing, you can be flexible with your schedule and you own your time. You can work in pretty much anywhere and anytime.
