My dream to live as a nomadic traveler
My dream day defined and articulated, along with the skills I need to bring it into creation.
I have a dream to overcome my fear and to travel the world nomadically for at least a year.
When I imagine my perfect day it goes like this:
I wake up in a hotel or in some park, I eat breakfast, wash up, go for an early morning walk, work in a cafe while I drink my coffee, then go out during the day for an adventure or training, meeting random people, coming across the unexpected, recording it all, then while resting at a restaurant in the evening I edit the whole video, prepare it for posting, and schedule it. I reply to any important work messages and to friends, scheduling events for the next day. Then in the evening I go out and socialize again, night time adventures, crazy fun, dancing, climbing abandoned buildings, meeting interesting people and having funny memories. Then I come home tired and happy, pass out and have the best sleep of my life.
It's the life that I tell myself I want so bad.
I don't know if it's true, if I will even like it when it happens.
But at least it is something to aim for, I just to create it and have it come into being.
There are certain skills or traits I may need to build up.
- Overcome all social anxiety, to be able to befriend anyone and invite the unexpected, talk to anyone.
- Be charismatic, good-looking, funny, interesting, creative, and talented - perform well and create good content in the beginning.
- Video editing, storytelling, filming, writing and scripting, acting, effective advertising, and speaking skills.
- Monetization - using the skills above to create a community and fan base to support my dream.
What's the plan to make it happen?
I suppose the only logical next step is to actually just get started. Even though I have a home now, I can still get started on this adventurous, rich, documentary lifestyle. Follow this with research and skill development in video editing, filming, storytelling, acting, charisma and all that I mentioned above, build these up, then I can actually start creating what I wish to create.
Things will distract me, things will push me back, and I will lose faith and give up at times, but I think as long as I keep preserving and heading in this direction, one day it will come true. I just need to build the skills that I need and establish a sustainable foundation, after that things will just explode exponentially. Opportunities will open up and things will just lead one after the other; it'll flow naturally at that point, because all the pieces have already been set up in place.
