25 Reasons To Ditch The 9 To 5 And Become A Digital Nomad

Sep 13

Let’s face it: 9-to-5 jobs are boring. They are also difficult to get, and when you do finally land one, they don’t always pay what they should (not to mention that they can be stressful). If you want more control over your time and career, then consider moving into the digital nomad lifestyle where you can work anywhere in the world with just a laptop and internet connection. Here is why I think it could be worth ditching your 9-5 job:

You can become your own boss.

If you’re someone who has always dreamed of being their own boss, then digital nomadism is the career path for you. You can work from anywhere in the world and create your own schedule. This gives you more control over your time and makes it easier to balance life with family obligations, work commitments and other obligations like travel or leisure activities.

You can learn new skills and challenge yourself to grow.

If you’re a creative person, the internet is an amazing place for you to experiment with your skills. There are so many free online courses available that teach everything from coding and design, to photography and writing. And if those aren’t enough, there are also tons of communities where people share their stories or help each other out with advice on how they made their businesses grow in different ways!

You can make more money.

The more clients you can work with and the higher your fees, the more money you’re likely to make.

Access to a larger number of clients. Digital nomads are capable of working remotely from anywhere in the world, so they have access to many different types of people and businesses who need their help in some way or another. This means that if you want to make sure that your business will continue growing, it may be best for you to consider becoming a digital nomad so that there’s always someone out there looking for what they can offer!

Higher rates when working abroad: As mentioned above, because digital nomads can work from anywhere at any time of day (or night), they are able charge reasonable rates for their services based on location rather than geography or time zones like most traditional employers would do during regular working hours at home offices where everyone else lives together under one roof as one big happy family team! This means every morning when I head down into my garage workshop where I keep everything stored away safely until needed later today again tomorrow afternoon; then again tomorrow evening just before bedtime each night..

You can travel wherever you want, whenever you want.

In the past year alone, I've been able to explore new places around the world and see things that I would never have dreamed of seeing before. It's exciting to be able to do this with my friends and family as well—we're always on the lookout for new adventures! We love taking trips together because it allows us all to bond over shared experiences in different countries and cultures around the world.

You will have more control over your time.

When you're working 9 to 5, it's difficult to take time off. You don't have access to the flexibility that a digital nomad offers. If you want to work from home and travel, there are no restrictions on when or where you can do so as long as it doesn't conflict with your employer's policies. If a client calls about an urgent project in their office at 10 pm ET (because they didn't realize how important it was), chances are good that someone else from another team could come in and take care of it during your absence; but if clients called during lunchtime or after hours because they forgot something important or needed advice on some aspect of their business operations—well, sorry but there isn't anyone available who can help them right now!

Your workplace will never be boring again.

You'll never have to wonder what it would be like to work in another place or with a different team.

You can choose from a huge variety of locations, and even pick up new skills as you go along!

If you want to explore your interests, there are plenty of opportunities for that too.

The old “I wish I had more time” excuse goes out the window.

When you are a digital nomad, you can spend your time doing whatever it is that gives you joy. You will have access to the resources and opportunities that are right at your fingertips. If there is something specific that excites or interests you, then this should be the number one priority in order for it not to go unnoticed by others.

If possible, try learning new skills while traveling so as not get bored easily when back home again!

Your work days will be shorter and more fun.

You will have more flexibility in your work hours. Working from home means that you can be as flexible with your hours as you want to be. Whether it's 8am-3pm or 6pm-10pm, it's up to YOU!

You can also take breaks when you need them and schedule specific days for working, whether those are Monday through Friday or just one day each week (like Monday afternoons). This is great if you want to spend more time with friends and family during the week; maybe even taking a vacation once every few months!

You will wake up excited (and maybe a bit nervous) to start the day.

You will wake up excited (and maybe a bit nervous) to start the day. You’ll be ready for whatever comes next, which means you’re more likely to get things done and keep moving forward.

This translates into better performance in your career and personal life. Plus, if nothing else, it's good for your health: studies have shown that people who work more than 60 hours per week are at higher risk of depression and heart disease than those who work less than 40 hours per week!

The other benefits come from being able to live where really matters: where you feel most inspired by life itself and where there are opportunities for adventure within reach—whether it's traveling across the world or just taking an afternoon off from work every once in awhile so that everyone can go out for pizza together!

You can spend more time with friends and family.

You can spend more time with family and friends.

If you’re anything like me, there are few things that make me happier than being able to spend more time with my loved ones. Whether it be a trip home for holidays or taking your partner on a weekend away, traveling means that you can visit them more often and get to know them better in person instead of just seeing them through Skype chats and FaceTime calls every few weeks.

You can take on as much or as little work as you like (or as little or much time off as you like).

This is the best part about being a digital nomad—you don't have to ask for time off, or wait for it to be approved. If your boss needs a few days off and there's an emergency in your family, that's okay too! It's not uncommon for my fellow digital nomads to be working in one place while they're taking care of their kids at home. That flexibility allows them to balance both worlds without feeling guilty about leaving their jobs behind completely.

You won’t have to ask for holiday time off or wait for it to be approved.

You’ll never have to ask for holiday time off or wait for it to be approved.

You can take as much or as little time off as you like.

No one will hold your career back because of your absence in the office, so you can truly focus on what is most important: living life!

You will be challenged to explore brand new places, which could open up new opportunities to grow and learn about yourself.

The best part about being a digital nomad is that you will be challenged to explore brand new places, which could open up new opportunities to grow and learn about yourself. You will learn new things about yourself, such as how much money you can make with your photography skills abroad or how much time it takes for someone in another country's culture who has never seen one before!

You might also find out that there are some things which are just not possible without the help of others: learning how to create social media content without having any experience beforehand is not easy but once mastered makes all the difference between mediocre content and high quality post worthy content!

I am sure there are many other areas where this applies too so let me know what else interests you so we can discuss them together :)

Your digital network of like-minded people will continue to grow (which means so will your career opportunities).

Having a digital network of like-minded people will continue to grow (which means so will your career opportunities).

You'll be able to connect with people from all over the world who share your interests, which will open up more opportunities for you. You'll be able to get involved in projects that interest you and meet other people who are working on similar things as you. This can lead to new friendships, collaborations and even business partnerships!

Using the internet means that you are able to live in any part of the world that has a decent connection.

If you're a digital nomad, you don't have to worry about where your next paycheck is coming from. You can live in any part of the world that has a decent connection and work remotely for companies like Apple, Google and Facebook.

Working online allows us to travel around the world without having to pack up everything we own and leave our families behind. Even if we want or need to be near them while traveling, it's still possible thanks to technology!

So, what are you waiting for?
