มุมมอง 4376 ปีที่แล้ว
Minimalism is a great vehicle to enable a sabbatical. The minimalist is able to save much more money and free themselves emotionally and de-clutter excess "junk". Minimalism is one aspect of the changes we made to our lives that enabled us to take the sabbatical we're on now. Here's a link to a great resource of minimalism information that we learned from that could also benefit you: www.themin...

How about just taking a leave of absence from your job? I like my job, but burnout is real in healthcare and I would love to take a couple of months off to relax, recharge and get my mind and body in better health. I want to take a trip to see people I know in Panama, and an exploratory in Thailand for yoga and massage.
Nice one! Great piece of advice
Great video. Planning my own sabbatical
Most underrated sabbatical video. You truly checked out right and understood the human assignment
I have same thought that changed my life gave me peace. Please let me know how to communicate with your team. I have many questions
"There will be many reasons to not go - do yourself a favor and go for it". - Thanks for this! P.S. Great audio. Have fun in your sabbatical!
Thanks for sharing! It has been a few years. When are you planning your next Sabbatical? Curious what you have learned (observed) since your first Sabbatical and what you would change/not change.
Thank you.
Thank you
Still, the rich guy with 0 savings can sell his expensive car, yacht or house, get a cheaper one and have money left to affort a sabbatical. The poor guy doesn't have much space to downshift. And we have to compare saving up lots of cash and effects of inflation vs having real estate that you can sell later or rent to somebody.
This was interesting thank you. I have so many ideas about how I want to spend my sabbatical when I eventually take one.
You nuts lol
Hi! Did you stop your Sabbatical? How did it go? What are you doing now?
Very helpful
Nice video. I've been doing most of these things but I am framing it more as a time to build an independent lifestyle -- aka some type of business/source of income -- while also accomplishing some goals I've set aside for life, hobbies, and travel. The difficulty will be narrowing down what to do as I typically have a lot of varied interests. Might be an interesting topic for a video. Cheers!
Thank you. I was already familiar with OODA methodology but you're explanation enriches my awareness. Given the timing of your sabbatical and your mindset and planning approach, I'm curious about how your experience may have prepared you for the global pandemic, with its multi-faceted disruptions.
I was using OODA loop without realizing it. I lost my business during COVID-19. I switched to a job and tried it but it didn't work so I decided to change job to a more stable income. That's what I am doing now! Whiles doing this I am planning to launch another business whiles doing this stable job!
Thanks for sharing, very helpful
U took an apt and a remarkable location to do this video.
What is a commercial
I’ve recently had life changing experiences through losing two of the most loved and important people I’ve ever know throughout my lifetime. While enduring the hardship of these losses, I’ve been motivated to genuinely seek my path to god by participating in the faith I was raised with and using that tool to do what I can to help others wherever we may encounter each other. I am only human like anyone a person sees and encounters in daily life. But my faith helps me endure through hardship to help people truly experience and Understand the good in the world. If there is anyone out there that might have ideas of how a beginner like me can take on an undertaking such as this, I would genuinely appreciate any advise or insight as to how one could go about it. Please don’t take this post as a cry for money. Although that is important, I’d prefer a warm clean bed, food, and a regular shower. Thank you all and god bless.
Nice! Very important to define what our personal "sabbatical" will look like. This makes it more powerful, instead of just wandering around aimlessly. Thanks!
Those who need a Sabbatical don't live optimally each day.
You’re clueless
Love all the content on this channel but I’d love to know what happened after? I’ve seen your MTB channel and Optimum Health page are both closed now and it would be great to know what life was like after the sabbatical? What worked out. What didn’t. Thanks for putting this great content out there though.
dude looks like hes an NPC from skyrim
I sadly have student loans. When I pay them off I will probably take a year long sabbatical...or maybe two years
Thanks for the tips! The money matters is always an issue. I'm glad u pointed it out.
Thanks!!! You help me a lot! Great lecture about ODDA Loop!!!!
Indeed. I saved for years, paid off my car and home and recently quit my job to spend a year doing my own thing
Congrats and hope to hear more about your time off!
Hi Chris, thanks for your videos, we are seriously considering a sabbatical. Of course, the financial aspect is the most challenging one, as we have 6 children and 1 income. So no luxury and difficult to find things to resign from. Do you have any additional tips/thoughts?
That's great. There are some resources and ideas out there based on your situation. Here for example is a TED talk you may find interesting: th-cam.com/video/YTdmRdioxZY/w-d-xo.html This guy talks about how they home schooled their kids while they were away and a little about how to prepare. You can also look through your employer's policies on extended time off to see if you may qualify for LOA so that you can keep your health insurance and reduce financial burden there. These are just a couple of ideas and I hope it helps guide you to your next step.
This would actually be authentic if you were not aiming to make money over at Patreon. It's not about money, until it's about money...
I appreciate you watching and commenting. Regardless of our money mindset and whether it empowers or restricts us to achieve our most monumental dreams, we all must still earn a living. The authenticity of my message has little to do with how I earn money and more to do with helping others see money differently...therein lies our power over it. I enjoy helping to empower others and the authenticity comes from direct experience and my desire to share it. Although I do have a Patreon account, I freely share all my content right here on TH-cam.
@@sabbaticalstory2807 Were I in your shoes, I would do the same thing. Yes, we all have to earn a living. Though, I do know a few people who have forsaken money altogether. I think I was more put off because I actually enjoyed your message, and then it was like, hey, if you liked this, come on over to Patreon and pay a little bit to get all of the content. That's what I did not like. Your message is great, but if possible, give it away freely- entirely.
Takes 6 month sabbatical, ends up stuck to couch, gains 50 lbs.
Great video, Thanks for sharing.
Are you in Greece? These mountains look like Meteora.
Well done!
Nice one brother! Just about to start my sabattical come tomorrow evening at 6pm. Thanks for the advice.
A year later... how did it go?
How did it go?
thanks guy you helped me understand better this strategy
Sir what is the location of your video.. I mean to say where are you shooting?
The filming location for this video was at Dupont State Forest in Cedar Mountain, North Carolina.
Superb location
Really appreciate this channel. I am a Preacher and looking to put together a good Sabbatical Plan to present to my board for the summer of 2020. I have watched several of your videos and subscribed. I will be checking out your health and wellness videos too!
Thank you for creating this channel and thanks for this video. I am going on sabbatical in few days for which i have been saving for last 3 years. The psychological fear you are talking about is very real. But i broke free of that by realizing that i have been working for last 8.5 years non stop and if i cant give myself a break for 6 months then do the hell with this kind of living. I need it now or it will never happen. Many people dont understand why i have to do this. And when i explain to them, they start giving me advice on what I should do further in life. And yes many are jealous. But i have stopped explaining it to them now. I hope that people will one day see that they just have to earn enough money to sustain themselves and dont have to slave away their lives for achieving some artificial standards of life.
Well said! Congratulations on achieving your sabbatical goal! So glad to hear that your sabbatical journey starts soon. Thank you for watching!
How did your sabbatical go?
@@benixmaximus It far exceeded my expectations. It went for an year and 8 months. In this time I gave a lot of time to music and writing - my two favourite hobbies. I developed a writing portfolio in this time. Wrote 2 books and started a blog. It lend me a job of content writing in a marketing firm. So yeah, by taking a break from work, I was able to make a big switch from my old IT job into a field that I really like i.e. writing. Apart from that I enjoyed a lot by travelling, reading, philosophizing, learning public speaking, playing games, cooking, and what not. Yes, I had pretty good amount of savings to do all that. But its also true that I end up using just 20% of what I had saved for my break. Overall, it was definitely worth it.
@@prabhdeepsingh5642 I’ve been saving for a few years and am hoping to jump off in a few months for at least a year. Your posts are so encouraging!
I’ve been contemplating the idea for years now and I’ve been saving just in case I ever got the guts to do it. But thanks to your videos I’m inspired and will be taking my sabbatical starting this May! Thank you 🙏🏽
So glad to hear it! Wishing you the best!
Nice video... Am planning a sabbatical and this definitely helps
Awesome! Best of luck to you...it's an amazing experience!
O
How did it go?
Really awesome video, thank you from the UK
Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching!
Why no new content? Great channel
I'm thankful that I found this channel.
So glad to hear that you find it helpful! Thanks for watching!
Great video, you made some really good points. I think it would be easy to get bored on a sabbatical if you spend the whole time on the beach and achieve nothing. Your project sounds really interesting.
Thanks for the comment! Agreed 100%!
Brilliant video. I've subscribed and looking forward to watching more :)
Thanks for the comment! We will be adding more content VERY soon. Been using our sabbatical to work on a project...check it out: re-mindacademy.vhx.tv/the-optimum-health-master-class-ohmc
Just checked it out. Wow, you've been busy!! Part of the reason we want to take a sabbatical is to work on getting our health back after LOTS of work travel and stress. Looking forward to your new content.
We are thinking of doing the same thing once our son graduates high school. I'll be 46 at the time. I'm estimating that we can do it for less than $30000 for the year in Asia or Central America.
That sounds like an awesome plan! You can definitely make 30k go a LONG way in some Central American countries and have an amazing time. Best of luck to you and hope to hear of your success!
