08:59 - How do you set aside time for admin work? Billing, blogging, etc.

15:41 - How can someone measure when they are "ready" in their skills to break into freelance from a full-time job? Is it better to just dive in and see what happens?

26:26 - Is it still important to niche down right away? Might it be more helpful to wait a little longer until I have more experience to choose a niche from?

32:55 - When do you suggest is an appropriate time to start billing when you’re ramping up a project?
