We were told that the only path to success and happiness is university education followed by years committed to a stable career. We were educated to become productive employees, but never to own the fruits of our life's labour. Almost all of us (the author included), fell into this trap. The truth though, is that we spend our best years, working for someone else. Soldiers building other men's empires. This book aims to show you a second path. Written for people who want more from their life, providing lessons to individuals who want to work for themselves and be master of their own destiny. It teaches how you can ruthlessly apply strategy on your daily activities, focusing energy on areas of high leverage that take you closer to your personal objectives. It is not lack of options in the world, but their abundance that weighs us down. We are paralysed by it. Opportunity is everywhere. There's almost so much choice we can't see it for what it is. Your success will come from focusing energy on one of those opportunities, for long enough to be able to profit from a better one, that you're now in a position to take advantage of. When you have chosen the right opportunity, you simply have to devise and execute a clear plan that concentrates your forces on the points of leverage that get you closer to what you want. The book encourages you to build your own empire, however small, to decouple how you earn your money and spend your time. An empire that not only works for you, but also sets you free. Fused with these lessons is a story of how the author quit his job in London, built a mini empire and became a digital nomad with true financial and location independence. As a cautionary note though, this book is not about "getting rich quick" and rejects the concept of the "overnight success". Instead the information is a guide for building an empire that gives you freedom and real options in your own life. The focus is on location independent business models that can be executed online and the growing numbers of digital nomads who are using their empire's to lead extraordinary lives.
