Introduction - How to: Work and Travel

Your comments on my blogposts are always so genuinely positive, (which I really appreciate), but on my recent few travel posts, I noticed that there was a difference in the tone of some comments. (Nothing negative, no jealousy btw, which I admire. Generosity is part of what makes the Steemit community so special). What I mean has more to do with your life and how changing one word in a simple sentence that you might have commented on my post without really thinking about it or even simply think to yourself... can make for a difference. 

What You Believe You Can Achieve

Even though a statements like "I can't wait to do that" or "I will travel to those places soon" sound similar to "Hopefully I can visit those cool places" or "I wish I could travel that much", there is a big difference that we should be aware of. Not only do the first two sound positive and the last two negative, but they tell a lot about your persona, how you perceive and what your range of possibilities is. 

"I can't wait to" and "I will" suggest that it is going to happen, meanwhile "Hopefully" and "I wish" hint at that it is not going to happen, unless something outside of your influence, a miracle changes the situation. The second person doesn't feel responsible and relies on coincidence, meanwhile the first person is willing to work for it, determined to take the right action and actively make the change happen. 

The Right Way

This 3-parts blogpost series is about understanding that if you want to work for yourself, and subsequently have your work be location-independent, you can and I will give you a few examples. Before we go on I just want to mention the obvious.. that if you do not want to change your life, or your might not like traveling, or have you're happy with going on vacation a few times a year instead of having a work-ation all year around, that is just as fine. I personally I love to travel the world, but also have a home to come back to, that's just my preference, but that doesn't mean that's the only or right way.

There is no "better", since we all have different dreams and ambitions and you cannot compare your life to anybody else's life, simply because there is no right or wrong. The only way you can do something wrong is by chasing the life of someone else and comparing yourself. Know who you are, know what you want and do nothing else. 

The following is meant for those who complain, wish to see a change in their lives happen, but don't know how...

Digital Money 

The best part about the era we live in is that we are among a generation of people who can choose what they want to do, who they want to be and be location-independent while earning an income. 

We tend to forget about our abilities "reason" and "choice". Right now we have the biggest advantage of all time.

In today's world, there are more answers than ever before to any question!

The big difficulty used to be in the question "how". Before the invention of the internet, it took many years for people to learn something because the information was spread across the globe in different books. Like a puzzle, you had to piece information together and it was hard to find answers.

The internet has changed everything. We now have the opportunity to do research on anything.. not only on what we want to know, but also on what we want to LEARN! If we take this a step further, we can realize that it only comes down to the "what".  Finding out what you want to know, what you're passionate about, what you want to do is the core part of the equation. There are plenty of answers to the "how". Some of them you even have somewhere in the back of your mind, others come from other people who've written, said, or recorded their opinion and you are granted access to all information. The only difficulty for you is to evaluate and filter the truths from the many answers you get when searching for an answer.

I could go on forever about this, but I want to keep this introduction short. In the following posts I will share with you.
