Never Work Again: Work Less, Earn More and Live Your Freedom

Welcome to a very different kind of business book.

Never Work Again shows you how you can build a successful and profitable business without the long hours and high stress that most entrepreneurs suffer from.

Trust me – I’ve been there and it’s not fun. In the months after I started my first business I didn’t know any better. My business was making me ill, but I was too wrapped up in what I was doing to spot the signs let alone to do anything about it. That is until the day I found myself on a London tube train begging a stranger to call me an ambulance and thinking I was going to die. That was my wake-up call. Luckily I got a second chance.

That day I realised that life is short and precious and I made a decision that if I pulled through I was going to do things differently. I decided to restructure my business efforts so that I could live life to the full.

What I decided to create for myself was:

A business that I could be proud of
The financial freedom to live the life of my dreams
The time freedom to do the things I love and to be with the people who matter most to me

And now I want to help you do the same.

After all, deciding to start your own business is something you do because you have a vision of a better life for you and your family. It’s your chance to take control and live life on your terms. And done right it will give you the financial freedom and the time freedom to do the things you love, when you want to do them and with the people who matter most in your life.

Never Work Again will show you how to create a great online business that gives you the time to work on your own passions in life.

In short, a business that allows you to work less and earn more.

Never Work Again shows you how you can easily start your own no-money down virtual online business – a business that will allow you to make money online and quickly achieve both financial freedom and time freedom.

All you need to do is choose from a number of simple blueprints and follow the one that’s right for you
You will learn how to create positive habits that will free up your time and allow your business to grow more quickly than you ever thought possible
You will be able to work from home or work virtually from anywhere on the planet – what’s your favourite city or beach?!
And you will learn how to automate and outsource your business, leveraging other people's time for your own benefit so that you can start living the life you really want

But more than this, Never Work Again explores what it means to live a truly happy and fulfilled life – to really live the life of your dreams. It encourages you to examine your own motivations and desires in order to determine your true purpose and path in life – so you can discover what freedom really means for you.

Remember, your time is precious – in fact, it’s the most precious resource that you have. Don’t waste another second of it doing things that you don’t absolutely love. Learn how to start creating the life of your dreams today.

Inspiring But Likely Harder to Do Than He Says

Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2014

Verified Purchase

The book is inspiring and optimistic about the ability to dramatically reduce work time and increase leisure time. There are a lot of good ideas presented and some good information on finding staffing for your part time businesses. My issue is with how much time you would have to devote to starting up the businesses that, once they are humming along, would allow you the leisure time that is the goal here. It appears the author had several of these "run themselves " businesses before he semi-retired. What about most of us who work full time for somebody else and want to leave it behind? Do we have to spend years of full time work trying to set up these businesses that will generate passive income? The author doesn't answer this, but I expect the answer is yes. So the advice really seems limited to those who are already well along in running their own businesses and can simply let someone else do it now. For the rest of us, it's probably a lot of work getting to that point.

A great signpost

Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2015

If you want to buy this book, understand this: it is a signpost, not a solution. In other words, you must get down to work YOURSELF if you want to see results. Erlend's book is a compact guide that shows you the way that leads to freedom. He explains how and why this is possible in today's world - mainly because of Internet and the possibilities it offers.

As a guy who has done quite a few things outlined in the book but didn't create a system, I can more clearly see now how to do that - and most importantly, I see that Erlend walks the talk.

For me, the most valuable chapter in the book is no.4 - Your Freedom Business. In that chapter alone you will see if this whole idea is something that fancies you. It clearly lays out the main business models that can lead to a freedom, world-class lifestyle. It shows real-world examples, with nicely laid out facts and figures: who did it and how they did it, with snippets from interviews. So far, this is the only book that I know that has grouped this and put it in one place. IMHO, he could have shortened the first three chapters, there is some filler there.

I am halfway through the book, because this isn't something that you read and shove aside. I am working on my goal. I will get to the chapters on outsourcing and automating my business once I setup a business.

Why doesn't Erlend go into detail as some reviewers noticed? Well, I suppose if he really went to explain the nuts and bolts of every freedom business model, the book would have at least 1000 pages. So he recommends other books on the subject. I bought some of them before buying his book, and I can tell you his recommendations are great.

A final warning: nothing in this book, or any other that explains this sort of business, will work unless YOU WORK ON YOURSELF. I discovered that in order to succeed and realize your dreams, you must change your paradigm. You can't just expect to succeed by learning a business system. You must question everything that you believe in. You must change from the inside. For this, I heartily recommend BECOMING MAGIC from Genevieve Davis.

All in all, Erlend's good book is a signpost, not a solution, keep that in mind.

The Title is a little deceptive.

Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2014

Verified Purchase

I like this book. I'm at a point where I will be making serious changes about my future and (fortunately) I have too many options. This book has helped me clarify my life values: what my real interests are, what makes me happy, what is important.

The exercises forced me take a good, hard look at WHY I want to make money and WHAT I will do with the money once it is flowing in my direction. The answers were not as clear cut as I thought they would be. I liked the idea of defining the "absolute minimum" amount of money that I need to have a great life and lifestyle. It was actually less than I thought it was going to be. Therefore, I can set up the work he describes, obtain this amount...and then spend the rest of my time enjoying non-work activities.

His premise, do what you love and it won't feel like work (hence, the book's title), is good and catchy for selling books, but a little off the mark with the content. I gave it 4-stars instead of 5-stars because it was not a unique, "earth shattering" approach to working through these issues. But the material was presented in a thought provoking format. If Amazon allowed it, I would give the book 4.5 Stars. If you're going to buy it, take the time to do the exercises and review the suggested websites/YouTube links - and do the introspection Bakke challenges you to do. You'll be glad you did.

Follow these steps and you may well never (have to) work again!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 20, 2015

Verified Purchase

Even though he is in his early thirties (at the time of writing), Erlend Bakke clearly writes with many years of experience and trial and error behind him.

This delightful book advises you on a number of different methods and techniques - as well as the kind of approach - to take in order to allow you to never work again.

Never Work Again does not come across just like "another business book"; instead, this one is different as Erlend appears to have written this guide from the heart. He advises you on what has not only worked for him, but he also provides case studies of past clients that he has worked with (real-world examples) who his methods have also worked for.

Although it is not an enormous book, it is packed with valuable information; there are examples aplenty and Erlend includes as much detail as possible. The reason for this is probably Erlend focuses on a "cut the crap" approach (his words - not mine) which has proven to be a valuable tool when constructing such a book.

Outsourcing is something that Erlend is very fond of. And I can see why. He gives a great example of his thinking behind it: if your toilet breaks, you call (outsource) a plumber to repair it rather than attempt to do it yourself. Another great example was with problems relating to your health: if you are ill, you probably do not attempt to diagnose and medicate yourself - you go to see your doctor, i.e. you outsource your problem and get somebody else to do the work!

Overall, this is a wonderful book for anyone who is looking to get away from the "9-5 ball and chain"; he opened my eyes to a plethora of techniques which I would never have considered myself and which I will certainly be putting into action immediately! In hindsight, even though I was lucky enough to have picked up a free promotional copy of Never Work Again, I would have still happily have paid for this book because of how down-to-Earth it is. No crap. Just good, clean, honest advise.

Well done, Erlend!

Nothing groundbreaking

SYNOPSIS: SELF-HELP BOOK ABOUT MANAGING YOUR TIME BETTER, SOME BUSINESS IDEAS FOR STARTING SMALL BUSINESSES AND SOME ADVICE ON HOW AND WHERE TO OUTSOURCE EXISTING (BUT SMALL) BUSINESSES.

According to me, the more realistic title of this book (but certainly not that catching one) would be: Manage Your Time Better. And there are many books on this topic out there. Nevertheless, there were some interesting topics covered in the book that do need to be remembered and noted, although nothing new and nothing groundbreaking.

An outstanding book that I needed to read at this moment in time. The first half of the book, especially, simply painting a picture about mindset and building something that means something (and makes sense) to you. Just wonderful writing, and I finished this in a matter of days. The only thing I'm unhappy about is that I've only just come across Erlend now. I could have done with this guy a few years ago.

Great book. Top job. Good times.

Big promises...and delivers.

This book promises much! Finally, a real guide to be able to earn passive income and To Never have to Work Again. The best thing about this book is that all the examples and stories are real and help you relate the scenario and the lesson to your own business. Erlend makes implementation easy, and although initially I thought the prospect of outsourcing would be difficult and expensive, this book as totally changed my mind. I can't wait to realise the fruits of labour from this book.

I think you'll love reading this as it's very practical and easy to read.

Building a business and living life your way

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 6, 2015

Verified Purchase

I am a voracious reader and estimate I read almost 50 non-fiction books a year, mostly on personal development and business topics. So, it's easy for me to compare books. I really enjoyed reading this book; it's an excellent read. Although Erlend, quite modestly, says he doesn't like talking about himself, the passages where he told us what happened to him were engaging and interesting. I don't think I really understood the title until I read the chapter on outsourcing. I can see from reading this book, he is clever and smart. I recommend it to anyone who wants to not just build a business but live life their way. I've now booked myself onto his bootcamp and I'm looking forward to learning more from him.

Review - Never work again

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 25, 2014

Verified Purchase

This is a book that i truly recommend to start the cogs turning and put some motion in to changing your life for the better. Creating a healthier mind set and outlook on life and work.

Erlend starts with the foundations of a better healthier life style with meditation and getting to the true core of yourself and then works towards what it is that you really want to do in life and how to achieve it.

In the book he has also published business canvases and set up an out-sourcing company to help make it all possible.

The advice doesn't end on the last page though. Erlend also sends mindful, thought provoking emails, arranges free webinars and answers your emails if you write to him! It's a full interactive life changing buy!

I'm A fan.

I bought this book in 2015 and didn't read it until 2017. I am very annoyed at myself for allowing 2 years to have slipped buy before reading this book and take action in the direction that Erlend guides. It would have been ever better if I had been able to read the book 20 years ago. Life would very probably have been very different now and much richer.

Erland's book is very inspiring - it opens up a possibility and opportunity for modern entrepreneurs to free themselves from the slavery of the 9-5 job and live life the way it was meant to be lived - with joy, peace, and abundance. This book provides the mindset behind becoming somebody who can attract this sort of reality and also gives some specific strategies to take action on. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to make a difference in their life.

An awesome book that Erlend has clearly put his heart and soul into creating. This goes far beyond just the system for working less and earning more, as there is a whole lot of inspiration inside and Erlend really delves into how to set the foundations and get your mindset right from the start.

He really simplifies the systems involved to enable you to take a step back from your business, whatever stage of your business you are at. I will strongly be recommending this book to other like minded individuals.

Inspiring material which forces one to think unconventionally about the desires of the heart in order to harness their most productive selves.

A bit self-promotional and repetitive. The emphasis on the Philippines is a bit overbearing. Furthermore, lessons of morality are appreciated but shouldn't be laboured and repeated so often.

Nevertheless, there is much to be gained and it has been written well.
