the article highlights very avoidable problems.
i have lived completely remotely for the last 2 years – hotels, different countries etc., have not spend over 60 days in a single location at a time.
i think it is amazing once you know how to do certain things well:
- have a very well-adapted set of routines.
- know how to maintain deep relationships everywhere
- appreciate different places for different things
- are busy
i use silicon valley for interactions with smart people and fundraising, russia for hiring and great social life, switzerland for deep work, asia for seeing very forward-thinking economic markets etc.
if you have good practices around arranging time with people in each location, mix in a bit of acid/MDMA/meditation – you can have it all – deep relationships, understanding of many markets/cultures, independence from annoying governments and their taxes, and the best of each location.
i would also argue there is a lot of value in training yourself to be independent of locations in the modern world – it feels like it increases your overall flexibility and ability to adapt. which is clearly worth a lot.
i write a lot about my specific routines for making this work here https://hackernoon.com/biohack-your-intelligence-now-or-become-obsolete-97cdd15e395f https://hackernoon.com/biohack-your-intelligence-now-or-beco...
- volkk 8y agoi read your article, and im praying that it's satire. and if not, i'm extremely concerned that it has 34k "claps" or whatever you call it on medium
- sergefaguet 8y agolol. it is not satire. the claps are just a reflection of that a lot of people consider this a good life strategy.
- redisman 8y agoI'm exhausted just skimming through it. Whatever works for you I guess
- sergefaguet 8y agoa lot of the article is focused on how to do deep work without getting exhausted. feels like that is a valuable skill to invest in.
