Do big changes really require big leaps?
Most advice about change assumes it has to be dramatic!!!!
You either go all in or you do nothing.
That framing makes many reasonable desires feel unreachable.
I often feel I'm alone, living in the middle, not trying to jerk my life around.
Anyone else in the middle?
The gap between where you are and where you want to be often feels large because it is imagined as one move. When that gap is broken into smaller steps, the nervous system responds differently.
The decision becomes easier to make and easier to take the first step.
Moving to a new place does not have to begin with selling EVERYTHING. It can begin with spending a weekend there and renting a place for a weekend/week. That experience provides information without forcing commitment.
Wanting a more portable work life does not require QUITTING a job. It can start by asking/making one day a week remote. That small shift tests what is possible with very little risk.
Small, reversible steps build trust in yourself.
When trust increases, action becomes more natural, and momentum follows without feeling forced.
In what area of your life could you experiment with ONE small step that would move you closer to the Portable Life you want?

A life you can take anywhere. Slowmad. Do less, better. Travel optional. Remote work, location independent, minimalist. Build by design with peers
