Honest Guide to Remote Work
- stephsmithio 8y agoHey HN. After 3 years of working remotely, I decided to compile all of my thoughts into 4656 words. I felt like the world needed a guide on remote work that: 1) Was not trying to sell anything 2) Highlighted benefits but also honest realities of location independence We know it’s not all fairies and rainbows, so I created this guide to give a more accurate view of the lifestyle and address some misconceptions. To be clear, I am a big advocate of remote work, but I think it needs to be represented realistically. Are there any key points missing from the article? I split it up into 5 sections so feel free to jump to the section most useful to you. 1) Remote Work != End Goal 2) Can I Even Go Remote? 3) The Good and Bad of Location Independence 4) My Personal Experience 5) Practical Tips
- mariedm 8y agoRemote work is definitely not for everyone and you need some time to adapt and find your own pace. The harder for me is regarding the physical health. I find it hard to stick to what I use to do since I'm nomad.
- stephsmithio 8y agoYeah, it's not for everyone and even for those who it's suitable for, there's a calibration period of at least a few weeks-months-years. I also struggle to fit in personal goals like staying fit!
