How to use a path
Most freelance advice assumes you already know which problem you have. A path does not. Each one is an ordered sequence — set your rate, then protect yourself legally, then get paid properly — where every step opens the tool that does the job rather than an article describing it.
The order matters more than it looks. Pricing before contracts, because a contract locks in whatever number you picked. Contracts before invoicing, because an invoice is only enforceable on terms somebody agreed to. Working through a path out of order is the most common way freelancers end up with a signed agreement they regret.
