Editor's Note: This is a guest post by Karl Staib. If you work for yourself you’ve had an annoying client that just doesn’t seem worth your time. You can’t stop this from happening, but you can find your inner zen to turn this seemingly bad experience into a good one. I say this because I’m living proof that it’s possible. I worked with a client who didn’t listen to a word I said. It was so frustrating because I’m good at what I do, but nothing I said mattered. This guy hired me to throw him a Twitter party and everything I suggested was rubbish. This man was blind to the facts.
