I’m always on the move and my productivity doesn’t suffer in the least. This is because I use a particular set of tools – hardware and software – that allow me to work from anywhere at anytime. I guess I wouldn’t travel as much if I hadn’t taken the time to weed through all the “mobile work” solutions and come up with a winning combination. Actually, I try to work as little as possible but when I need to take care of business I’m able to do it whether I’m on a random, spontaneous vacation with my family or overseeing a particular business project somewhere.
This subject is actually somewhat of a passion for me. I’m intrigued by the way we are changing the way we work in the 21st century. I believe we still work in the old way mostly because it’s an entrenched idea that’s pretty irrelevant to the demands of most jobs. If the average worker/entrepreneur/contractor of knowledge based businesses was to be a little more purposeful about how they worked they’d find that they enjoy a quality of life that can’t be found by being anchored to their desks. (Even if it was for even one hour per day.)
In this blog I’m going to share with the world the tools and concepts I use to be totally free of my desk whenever and for however long I want. I’m looking forward to hearing about your suggestions and methodologies for being an efficient “desk free” human as well.
