Working for yourself means that you do not get any kind of money from it, such as taking care of your family, taking care of yourself, taking care of your pet or car, etc. But if you want to say what self-employment means, then it will be the work that you can do according to your own freedom to earn money, which is under self-employment. You can own a showroom, you can own a factory, you can own a restaurant, in this case you can do your work according to your own freedom. You can stop working at any time as you wish and start working at any time as you wish. Here you do not have to be responsible to anyone for your work, both the loss and profit of your work are your own. This is what I mean by working for yourself and self-employment
