First freelance or contract gig?

As Software Engineers, it might be bit difficult starting out with first freelance gig or contract job.

I was able to secure one in college with about 50k/month for about 4months working as a back end engineer for an Indian SaaS company and international client.

Great learning and great pay for a newbie.

Also if you have a full time job and freelance gig. how do you juggle between both? Keeping in mind you also need to take personal time and time for fitness.
