When observing "solo flying" in the context of life, it is a lifestyle that helps one rediscover their soul and dreams. Solo flying means a person is no longer affiliated with any institution, company, or collective, but works purely in a personal capacity. Solo flyers will have no bosses, subordinates, or colleagues—only collaborators and clients. They may lose the familiar armor: the office, a fixed salary, and the titles on their business cards. However, a rich, healthy, and surprise-filled life will also unfold from this.
Based on the author’s experience as a successful solo flyer, this book recounts her journey from confusion and even a loss of confidence to freedom and fulfillment. For anyone willing to treat life as an art to be created, the guidance in this book will help them overcome the psychological challenges of solo flying and quickly transition into practical action—such as how to build your brand, how to attract work to you, how to select clients, how to execute successful projects, how to expand your influence, and even how to set your prices.
This book blends expansive life thinking with solid practical analysis, serving as a comprehensive training manual for solo flyers.
