๐ 7 must-read books for remote workers
Get the inside scoop on remote work success! Here are some of the best books for freelancers and remote workers
Happy new year!
One reason Iโve enjoyed being a remote worker is that thereโs more flexibility with my time. With that, Iโve created a schedule that allows me to read more.
Over the past few years, Iโve read many helpful books that offer insight, tips, and tricks for living life as a digital nomad. I give many of these books a lot of credit for helping me find success in my personal and professional life.
Here are eight books about finances, minimalism, travel, and more that we think every remote worker needs to read:
1) Money Lessons: How to Manage Your Finances to Get the Life You Want
This guide is perfect for digital nomads at any stage of life. It discusses how you can manage everyday spending and achieve big goals, from funding a big trip to comfortably retiring one day.
2) Side Hustle: Build a side business and make extra money without quitting your day job
This book is ideal if youโre new to working remotely and still have a full-time job. Itโs also great if you think you may want to dabble in other remote work side jobs alongside your full-time one. Learn about side hustle opportunities, picking the right one for you, offering specials, and more.
3) Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World
As digital nomads, we spend a lot of our time online, which is why I think this book is a must-read for anyone who works remotely. It teaches us how to spend our leisure time offline for a more fulfilled life.
4) The Digital Nomad Handbook: Practical tips and inspiration for living and working on the road
In this book, readers can learn practical pieces of advice for generating income remotely, working on the road, maintaining relationships and more. It also shares inspirational stories from other digital nomads.
5) Youโre the Business: How to Build a Successful Career When You Strike Out Alone
Working remotely often means youโre without a support group like you get in a traditional workspace. This book offers just that with stories and advice that remind you that youโre not alone.
6) Go Lightly: How to travel without hurting the planet
One of the best parts of being a remote worker is getting to work from anywhere. This book is filled with information and tips that inspire and teach you to travel more sustainably.
Note: If you are interested in learning more about climate change and the environment then here are my favourite documentaries.
7) Working Hard, Hardly Working: how to achieve more, stress less and feel more fulfilled
Get what you want from life and work with this refreshing read. This book is written by an entrepreneur who teaches readers how to create a more balanced life thatโs both productive and fulfilling.
I hope youโve found a few books on this list youโre excited to read!
