You might be wondering how it’s possible to write articles, or for that matter an entire book, without typing a word<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Well, this is a pretty good example of how you can do that.<\/p>\n At this moment I am walking on the beach in my adopted country, Portugal.<\/p>\n It’s a beautiful day.<\/p>\n I’m walking along the beachfront on the promenade, beautiful views, waves, sun, sand, and sea.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Not a bad view from my “office”<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n As I’m walking along, I’m recording this on my iPhone.<\/p>\n I’m wearing a pair of BeatsX Wireless Headphones, the ones with the microphone built-in.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n BeatsX Wireless Headphones<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n I’m on an iPhone, using Voice Memos to record this content.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Voice Memos App<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n I’m walking and everything that I’m saying I’m going to have transcribed.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Then after it’s been typed, I’m going to have it sent to an editor who will write articles for me!<\/p>\n Once that’s all done\u00a0 – without me typing a word – it’ll be sent to me, and I’m going to paste the finished article into this page here.<\/p>\n That is how you can write articles without typing a single word.<\/p>\n You could even do an entire book the same way if you wanted.<\/strong><\/p>\n The point is the whole process is pretty simple, and the benefits are many.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n While I am “writing”\u00a0AKA ‘speaking’ this article, I’m actually exercising.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n So, I’m being productive – getting my work done.<\/p>\n I’m creating… and I’m keeping fit!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Have headphones and I’m ready to roll!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Hopefully creating value and at the same time that I’m exercising.<\/p>\n Isn’t that amazing?<\/p>\n Apart from that, I’m outside, enjoying the sun.<\/p>\n I’m in the fresh air.<\/p>\n I’m not stuck on a computer while I write articles.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n It’s good to take a break from time to time!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you’re like most people I know who work online, we spend most of our time sitting at the computer.<\/p>\n It’s not particularly glamorous.<\/p>\n We just sit at the computer, often in an office, sometimes in the bedroom, maybe at the dinner table, and we just type away.<\/p>\n We spend too many hours a day sat down at a computer <\/strong><\/p>\n and it’s just not healthy!<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Right now, that’s not what I’m doing.<\/p>\n I am walking along this beautiful promenade in the Lisbon area where I live.<\/p>\n It’s an absolutely beautiful day.<\/p>\nMy “hi-tech” equipment<\/h2>\n

What do I do once I’ve got my recording?<\/h2>\n
Write articles and keep fit at the same time!<\/h2>\n

Chase away those computer blues!<\/h2>\n
