I try to go on vacation at least once every 3-4 months…the purpose NOT being to completely detach but rather to be re-energized, inspired and motivated.
In fact, I find my productivity goes up by 10x on vacation just due to the inspiration from a change in environment.
Part of it is the control my current lifestyle affords – something I think everyone should aspire to
Another part is that I can work from anywhere – and usually do
It’s NOT About Escaping…
In that sense, I don’t view vacations as an ESCAPE…instead I view it as a reinforcement of the lifestyle I am living — a PART of my overall life-work plan.
I suggest all of you try planning your life this way.
Instead of planning to get through the work that you hate for that once-per-year vacation ESCAPE…
Plan your work life (whether through a change in career, adding a side-hustle, starting your own solopreneur business or head up something more ambitious) to make vacations a PART of your quarterly planning.
It’s About Life Planning: The Digital Nomad…
There are many careers or businesses you can start these days and work from nearly anywhere…

- Coaching
- Content Marketing
- Copywriting
- Social Media Marketer
- E-Commerce
- SEO (Search Engine Optimization)
- Design (Graphics, Templates, Logos, etc…)
- Podcasting
- Virtual Assistant
- Photography, Videography
- Translation
- Video Editing (Long-form or Reels, YT shorts, Tik Tok videos)
- Investment Management

My preferred method is to begin with digital products – providing advice, knowledge and help to people that you most likely (or will be in a position to in the near future) are already helping.
In this sense, you get to answer questions for a living – from ANYWHERE!
The benefit is MUCH bigger than you can imagine – not only will you see more of the world and increase your level of happiness…you will most likely end up MORE productive, more confident, more assured and more influential
Who’s up for re-designing their life to take full advantage of what the world has to give?
