Dream-horse: Tell you how to travel around the world with a sword.

Sanmao said that she wanted to be a scavenger in the future. After being educated by the teacher, her dream is to become a vendor selling popsicles in summer and baking sweet potatoes in winter, so that she can do business and see if there are any good things discarded in the trash can along the way.

Not to mention the dream at that time, but now, if you say it out loud, most people will think you are crazy. Sanmao was naturally severely criticized by the teacher until her dream was changed to a doctor who saved lives.

For dreams, people are largely shy, or shy, afraid of being attacked and laughed at; Or he never walked on the road of dreams, afraid of being poked in the spine.

Those who can bravely express their dreams and move in this direction must have light in their hearts.

What about you? What's your dream?

or

Have you ever thought about what you will do in the future in the dead of night?

Are you looking for a job and wondering what you can do in the future?

Do you feel sad that others have the life they want? What can I do to get the life they want?

Feng Zikai said: "Life has three layers, the first layer is material life, the second layer is spiritual life, and the third layer is soul life."

What floor are you on?

The times are becoming more and more open and transparent, giving ordinary people more opportunities to get in close contact with some outstanding people and even talk face to face; So as to see a wider sky, find your deepest desire, and pursue your dreams wantonly until you live the life you want.

On the WeChat account, I sent an email to a favorite author "How to live the life I want". Unfortunately, I didn't receive any reply.

but

The problem didn't begin to become clear until last night.

First of all, I'd like to introduce a friend I've never talked to. His name is Lin Yingcong. He graduated from Guangzhou University of Finance, majoring in human resource management. Now he is a photographer.

Lin Yingcong is also hesitating about what he will do in the future.

The rest of my life is not only long, but also expensive. We all want to live the life we want.

When he was admitted to the university, his mother rewarded him with a 2000+ SLR. At first he didn't know anything, but he knew to press the shutter.

He studied in Zhaoqing in the first year of school, next to the scenic spot, and the beautiful scenery made him have the impulse to learn photography well.

For what he likes, Lin Yingcong has always gone all out, looking through the camera manual, looking for videos online and reading all the books about photography in the college library.

With the improvement of theoretical knowledge and continuous practice, Lin Yingcong is no longer the stupid guy who just pressed the shutter.

At the end of the second semester, Lin Yingcong wants to change equipment. Everyone knows that photography destroys three generations, and SLR is poor for life. For ordinary college students, photographic equipment is not cheap, but having good equipment is every photographer's dream.

When your mind is focused on a certain field, people, things and things related to this field will be attracted to him.

At this time, business opportunities appeared.

Because I studied in Zhaoqing for one year as a freshman, and then I will go back to Guangzhou. Therefore, Lin Yingcong came up with the idea of making university landscape postcards. The selection, production, printing, publicity and delivery of pictures are all hands-on. The first bucket of gold in college, the money for changing equipment for the first time.

Sophomore began to study portrait photography and post-processing, and gradually began to take orders for some portrait photography, and then traveled from Yiwu-Hengdian-Hangzhou-Xitang-Shanghai. Kunming-Dali-Lijiang-Shangri-La. Travel can be addictive.

Junior year, run your own official WeChat account. Photography and travel are inseparable. Lin Yingcong went to Lugu Lake alone-shooting stars, Sichuan-seeing pandas, Chengdu-walking the streets, Emei Mountain-seeing snow. The pace of travel never stops, Guangzhou-Congjiang-Kaili-Guiyang-Chongqing-Tibet-Lanzhou -Xi 'an. It seems that I have seen all the great rivers and mountains of the motherland.

Senior three is the most important year for Lin Yingcong. He decided to become a travel photographer.

Da Bing said: "Starlight doesn't ask passers-by, and time pays off."

Lin Yingcong was angry and strengthened his dream.

There are always people living the life you want, and there are always people doing what you want to do. Not everyone is forced to make a living, either by dreams or by dreams.

Such a person will not be too empty for the rest of his life.

In Zhihu, there is a question: What is the source of income for people who travel all the year round?

We all envy those who travel around the world with swords, but we want to know where the swords come from.

One of the praises above 3.4W is that long-term travel is nonsense, but it is feasible to eat fans for a living.

Contribute to the magazine (paper tourism geography magazine requires high quality, is not easy to be selected, and the manuscript fee is not high)

Work on your own (time is limited, you have to get a diploma, you dare not take too much leave, and you dare not fail)

Travel purchasing Taobao shop (for example, online celebrity Molly casually sent thousands of praises to Weibo, buying and selling souvenirs of scenic spots, and finally being exposed by fans is a cheap thing, which can't support his travel after selling it several times).

Crowdfunding awards and sponsorship

Such an answer is vulnerable in the media era.

Nowadays, with the rapid development of Internet, an individual is a brand era. As long as the weapons are constantly polished and have certain lethality, it is not difficult to take dreams as horses. This is also your iron rice bowl, and no one can take it away.

Lin Yingcong's sword:

Photography order (couple photos, graduation photo, graduation photo)

Become a contract photographer and sell pictures (now is the era of media, and galleries have become extremely popular, and many pictures from media need to be bought in galleries)

Making Periphery (Selling Postcards)

Contract (writing tweets about travel and photography)

Do paid courses and pay for live broadcast (as long as you are proficient in a skill, you are not afraid of realizing it)

Do multi-platform self-media (advertising, reward, group purchase, community)

Photography is his weapon, and selling pictures, making self-media, making manuscripts and doing paid courses are all his moves.

Zhou Chong said: "Although this era is very utilitarian, it recognizes anyone's efforts."

As long as you have a bright spot, as long as you are moving towards your dream, it is never too late.

Lin Yingcong's insistence:

Insist on exercise and fitness (the equipment is too heavy, and travel is already tired)

Insist on learning English (international volunteer recruitment standards and communication with people on the road)

Insist on writing (since the media needs pictures and texts)

Stick to travel (travel guide, find more beautiful)

Insist on photography (a weapon to make a living)

A little persistence in dreams is a help.

Just like Haruki Murakami.

Running writing is because his health is getting worse and worse, and writing is getting worse and worse. In order to write better, he needs a healthy body and a good assistant for his weapon.

In the end, he not only became an excellent novelist, but also a marathon runner.

The peerless weapon leads the powerful auxiliary, and the auxiliary makes the weapon perfect.

Come on, my friend.

Think carefully, what kind of life do you want?

What's a weapon? ?

What's your action?

What is the aid of weapons?

After you think about it, wash and sleep quickly. You have everything in your dreams.
