You too can live anywhere and work anywhere. Sharing Travel Experiences is run by a virtual team – none of us are actually in the same location! And many of us consider ourselves to be location independent. Location Independent means that you can take your business with you, allowing you to travel more.
Location Independent doesn’t mean you need to become an entrepreneur – though it helps. But location independent is what you make it; it means different things to different people. But that’s how lifestyle design works: take a great idea and implement the parts that work for you.
An easy, quick way to learn more about the location independent lifestyle and tips for how to live anywhere and work anywhere is to check out Lea & Jonathan Woodward’s X Marks the Spot: The Indispensable Guide to Living & Working From Anywhere You Choose:
This guide an excellent overview of how it works and how you can make location independent a part of your travel more lifestyle. As I mentioned in my review of the guide:
It’s a lot of information – but filtered down to the essentials, and only the good stuff. She’s made mistakes and the location independent lifestyle isn’t for everyone – but instead of hiding around the fact, she gives you the information to help you decide if it works for you, and if so, how to do it.
For me, the most powerful quote in the book was this one – this was a trap I had fallen into myself at one time and wouldn’t recommend it.
“ If you don’t design your own life plan, chances are you’ll fall into someone else’s plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.”
- Jim Rohn
