What shifts when you switch from an employee to owning a business is your mindset. You begin to think more organised and robust.

The main difference between working for yourself and working for someone is that you take all the decisions when you are the owner of the business but you must follow instructions when you are working for someone..

As a business owner you don't have to follow the orders of others like you to follow the orders of your boss when have a job.

It's obvious. Doing your own business is advantageous compared to serving others for a pay, while if it's yours, the money is only for you to grow.

 

[Stardom22]

Business owners have access and control over their businesses compared to the working class people.

 

[Niyi Briggs]

When you have a business, you have bigger problems to worry, as a worker, you do not have to worry about anything except your own work

That's true. With your bigger problems, there is a chance that you would have higher earnings than a staff.

When you are working for someone, you are not bothered about the company beyond your salary. But with owning your business, you have to ensure that the business is profitable.

The biggest difference between a business owner and someone working for someone is the flexibility of time, while the person working for someone is confined and could not have freedom to do other things..

When you work for someone, you would close at your given time. Working for yourself, you don't have a closing time.

When you work for someone else, you have to follow orders and might struggle with work-life balance. On the other hand, being a business owner comes with risks, but it also offers the potential for financial freedom and the ability to choose your own team, etc.
