Interesting, but probably not workable for everybody. So far the only way it's changed my behavior is I quit reading blogs.

What's the premise.

The subtitle is "Escape 9-5, live anywhere, and join the New Rich."

The premise I guess is: don't wait until you're retired to do what you've always dreamed of. Do it now. Take "mini-retirements."

The 4 steps are : Definition, Elimination, Automation, Liberation

Definition is figuring out what it is you want to do with your life. Elimination is about time-management and effectiveness. Automation is about outsourcing the BS you deal with on a daily basis, plus coming up with a business that will make you lots of money with little work. Liberation is how to work remotely in your real job without getting fired

Definition and Elimination I think have some good stuff for everybody. The Automation stuff I think won't work for everybody, if for no other reason than you need a billion low-income workers in India to do the out-sourced work, plus how realistic is it that everybody can make $40k/month being a middle-man for drop-shippers?

Well, Friday I worked from "home" at the beach, so that's a win.
