Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Man has always been a nomad, a restless spirit or a free-spirited species. In very early times, we moved from place to place, from continent to continent, tracking the stars, crossing huge rivers, and following the seasons in our efforts to survive. Before the advent of modern civilization as we know it, it was common for man to travel great swathes of lands and territories. But they didn’t remain like that forever, the free-spirited nomadic men; they began to change their orientation. They began to try to find ways to stay in a place longer than usual. They had an urge to own lands, to build a connection to the lands. There was a plea for stability and so any semblance to a regular life, one that does not involve old moving habits, is embraced by us. We continue to bury our nomadic essence deeper into our core. We spend a lot of our time, energy, and money paying for a lot of things in our possession already. The all too popular culture of getting it now and paying later has been a resonant motto for most men. This exemplifies the way we see the world and our current approach to survival. This speaks to the state of our complacency and our inability to remove ourselves from our self-inflicted burdens of excruciating debts and our monotonous 9-5 daily obligations. But not everyone wants to live this way, and some of us cannot bear to remain in this endless loop. There is the urgent need to break free of what seems a very strong shackle. They want to live their lives according to the dictates of their passion, allowing their inner nomad self outside. It is about having a newfound freedom, working with no boundaries or borders. The ability to finally live and work from any workstation in the world. It is called being a digital nomad.

Book excerpt: How To Be A Digital Nomad Learn How You Can Start Work Online While Travel The World Hey Fellow Reader I'm Ida, a Digital Nomad and online marketer. I love travel, And I've been a Digital Nomad, Experiencing Outdoor travel as well. Meanwhile I love travel, I love to keep myself girly as much as possible, on a budget while traveling, I have learned a lot since the past few years, and I'll share all the things I've learned into this manuscript. Here is a part you'll find inside this book: What is a Digital nomad: A digital nomad lifestyle is becoming more of the trend, and this article will tell you what a digital nomad is, and the realities of a Location Independent Business. What is a digital nomad and why are there so many people who want to work this way. A digital nomad is, essentially, a person who works for himself. Many work at home mothers do this, and are known as Full Time Gigs. Others work as freelancers and do things a specific way, like transcribing, editing, proofreading, or programming. However, some digital nomads work for service companies, and do things like web design, web programming, accounting, creative writing or translation. Those who work a digital nomad lifestyle do not work for a company or boss, but instead work for themselves. They set their own hours and follow their own rules. It is difficult to be self-employed in this society, because you have to rely on the wills of others and your courage to set up your business. However, it is not impossible, and there are different ways to be self-employed which can provide you with more freedom and flexibility, while still bringing in some money. If you want to work at home, then this is the technology which is enabling the change, and it is allowing nomads to work from home. Companies are recognising the potential of this new method of working, and the first areas to embrace the new way of working are the legal ones. However, it is not just the legal firms and public sector which are looking to employment technology in order to cut costs. Almost every type of industry is looking at using technology in order to lower costs and in this way increase profits. For example, restaurants are using recruitment technology in order to lower salaries and costs. Until a few years ago, when every restaurant had a fixed cost of hiring, training, and maintenance, the vast majority of restaurants were able to pay 100% of their employees' salaries. This meant that it was possible to pay a manager less than a waiter and save money. However, with the inclusion of recruitment technology, the cost of hiring employees is being cut by up to 50%. This does not necessarily mean that the amount of profit is increased, but employees are able to be assigned to different tasks meaning that they spend less time in front of customers thus increasing their profits. ⚠ Interested to know more? ✓ Then Scroll up, Click on "Buy now with 1-Click, and Get Your Copy Now
