What is holding you back?, take the first step today toward realizing your dreams.
“.. almost everything – all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure – these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.” – Steve Jobs
“An idea that is not dangerous is unworthy of being called an idea at all. ” – Oscar Wilde
According to “How to become a million-dollar freelancer” by Jessica Stillman, Joshua Warren did it,
[W]ithin months he stair steps his way from 15, to 30, to $85 an hour, and even at $85 an hour he has got more clients than he can handle and he’s making more money than he was at his traditional brick and mortar job in Dallas. What he figures out is he’s an entrepreneur. He stops turning away business; he creates his own firm. So in March of this year he created a company by the name of Creatuity, and he expects to do over a million dollars in business this year. And he now is hiring on oDesk.
And so did Sanjay Dange,
We started with a small office of 200 square feet and three people… Today, we have a total office space of 6,000 square feet in Surat and 2,000 square feet in Baroda.

The greatest benefit of Working Remotely, for even just a day or few days a week of Working Remotely, is the personal freedom. Because who wouldn’t want more personal freedom?
When you can take more control of your choices, you’ll experience an independence that money can’t buy. No one will do this for you. If you want freedom, you’ll have to make it happen for yourself. This guide can help.

All materials are delivered immediately after purchase by electronic download (no shipping charges) and will work on both PC and Macs. The product includes:
More specifically, here’s how each of those things breaks down.
The 47-Page Guide
The guide includes highlights of everything I’ve learned in ten years of working remotely, as well as best practices and tips learned researching and writing Remote Worker Daily. It is roughly divided into four sections that cover 30 % background and trends, 30% strategy and 40% tactics and best practices. The background and trends sections is designed to provide you with statistics and trends to back up your case for remote work. The strategy sections provide helpful advice and tip. The tactics and best practices sections show you what to do step by step in manner that will work for you regardless of the broader economy or your own circumstances.

Why Not To Give Me Your Money
Please let me give it to you straight — this is not a quick-fix system. I know of no such thing. If you are looking for the easy road to riches, feel free to keep looking, but not here. Send me a postcard from Hawaii when you find it. But over here, I’m working on something different. I do not provide a complete road map or a hand-holding guide. It’s a guide that will help you begin the process of creating freedom. I wouldn’t offer it if I didn’t believe in it, but there are no shortcuts to learning.
Lastly, not everyone wants to work remotely. Some people adapt to remote work quickly, some come around to it after a while, and others are better off doing something else. This guide is for people in the first two groups.
I believe passionately in creating personal freedom. I’ve done it for myself, and I’ll tell you how – including all my mistakes, so you don’t have to repeat them. Some of you are really excited about this or have already had some initial success that leaves you hungry for more. You are who I created this product for.
Therefore, with those earlier disclaimers out of the way, let me give you the strongest guarantee I could possibly think of.
The Incredibly Convincing Guarantee “If you read the guide, followed the exercises, and put in a good-faith effort, I am not allowed to keep your money if it doesn’t work for you. You have to let me know if this happens, and I have to refund your money promptly.

P.S. I like this quote from George Bernard Shaw: “The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can’t find them, make them.”
There are a lot of things you can do to make your own circumstances, and I’d be lying if I said that buying something was the only way. There are many ways to make circumstances. Regardless of which you choose, I wish you good luck in the journey.
As a Remote worker it is absolutely critical that you ace the interview. In many cases employers set the bar higher for remote workers because they are not on site, and thus a higher level of trust is required.
Because a relationship between the remote worker and employer does not already exist, the interview is your one and maybe only chance to develop a relationship and trust.
Before going any further, take a few minutes review two prior articles I wrote on mastering the remote worker interview;
Time to expand our earlier work on remote worker interviews with advice from CBS News, Dave Johnson’s article has an additional three questions to prepare for,
What has been your experience working on a remote team?
What technology did you use in the past when working remotely?
What concerns or challenges did you encounter that you’d like to avoid this time around?

What is the MOST important Remote Worker trait?
Did you guess independence? Nope. How about self motivation? Important, but still not it. Communication skills? Critical but still not there yet.
Huh? What does perseverance have to do with working remotely?
Perseverance is by far the most important remote worker trait, and in my humble opinion, the most important life trait for anyone in any situation.
Because finding a real remote job and not getting scammed, finding consistent freelance and contract work, and starting a remote business are difficult. Yes, you read correctly, they can be really damn difficult. Anyone who tells you otherwise is a liar.
You will encounter many roadblocks on an almost non-stop basis. Your laptop will break, your internet connection will get cut at the worst time, business won’t materialize when you really need it, you moron boss is completely opposed to even five minutes of remote work.
Can you see why perseverance is so important? because perseverance gets you through the challenges and forces you to find a way through, over, under, or around any obstacle preventing you from achieving your goal and dream of a location independent lifestyle.
So get out there and push through the challenges.
