Gosh, reading about this kind of lifestyle makes me think. I would frigging love to be able to not have to answer to anyone, in an employment sense. Would I have the self-discipline to make it work though? Replacing my kind of income by digital income would not be easy. Hard to do when needing to support a family of 5. But imagine being able to work for oneself?
I do love writing... Freelance journalism. Travel writing, reviews, musings, there are numerous things I could write about. The key here, is to actually have a crack at it, and see how it goes. I have thought about making videos, but in order to do so, I need to put a door on my office. I probably also need a mental reset, as I am too easily distracted as it stands.
I guess the first thing to do is find somewhere that accepts offerings from freelancers, and write on something. Hmm, scratch that. I just spent some time researching freelance writing, and I'm just not ready for it. I am far better off working on making my blog better, and going from there. The other thing to do would be to try my hand at a few videos - I speak well, articulate myself well, and have had an interesting life. Perhaps I could try some vlogs - putting together a video going through trip photos for instance, and narrating the journey. I like the sound of that, as it also works towards my legacy goal of leaving something behind of me, for my children. Let's put that in the to-do list and see where we go with it.
