I have an English degree and I work in scholarly book publishing as an editor (developmental and acquiring editor, not the grammar and spelling kind of editor). I mostly work remotely which is very, very nice. Currently, my fiancé and I are working to pay off the house early. My wedding dress, thrifted!

After all, if you’re not busy earning more money to buy stuff, and you don’t have to clean and organize that stuff, you have a lot more time on your hands. As much as I’m intrigued by going without the internet at home, at this time, I don’t see how it could work. I am also a freelance writer and virtual assistant. Do you now?

I remember learning something about saving money on books I want to share with you : the library has copies and you can check them out.And teachers have extra copies. If you can’t afford the books and the library does not have any on their shelves, ask your teacher. That is me talking to him in 2004 in London, England.

This works for ebooks too, and I actually find it pointless for each person in the class to purchase an ebook. Sometimes, public libraries even have the textbook, although you can’t usually take them out for a full semester. The first is to share the book with somebody who is taking the same class as you at the same time.

Create an organized workspace. Coffee shops, parks, or the library are great for this. Exercise works great at clearing the mind and releasing tension which in turn refreshes us. Set targets. Nothing is worse for productivity than not aiming at something. Make sure you have the tools you need and a comfortable environment.

Here are some low cost remedies to stress I have found work great: Live simply. Go to the library. Make yourself a cup of tea or coffee at home and take it with you to your local library and browse around. The best part about this activity is libraries usually have a whisper policy so it is a nice quiet place to escape to. .&#
