We’ve talked a lot about attitude and self-care in previous Gig Economy News blogs, but one thing that we sometimes neglect in the process is a discussion of psychology. Our attitudes aren’t just something that happen by chance, they’re a result of our innermost processes, and tapping into a deeper understanding of human psychology can help us become better entrepreneurs with more successful businesses.
