Especially getting older, I do this a lot more. Looking at things I want to do that ive been putting off, for example. If I have the money, I’m doing it. Now I’m not going full Yes Man on it, but I much prefer living like this. You could very easily die tomorrow so you should do everything you want to while you can, basically.
A lot of people I know seem to lock themselves in this invisible box of “I can’t” when they totally can. Obviously, finances is all of our biggest limiting factor in this. But even a lot of wealthier people just dont ever really do what they really want, either out of fear of being judged or failing etc. And then, boom, brain cancer, you’re dead in 6 months.
So I say, live it up!!
Now this doesnt mean blow your life savings on cocaine, unless thats really your thing.
Yeah, I do actually like my job, it just gets boring at times and I’m not really being utilized to my full potential so it makes me feel a bit like I’m wasting time. I really can’t complain though.
Its one of those things where if I quit my job to follow my dreams I’d probably be depressed and have no money anyways. But at least from this side of the glass I can imagine that IF I quit I would have done something cool. But then I quit dreaming and still have money. Unfortunate but its smarter this way I feel. I can still pretend after work and weekends.
Thats the plan ! I did at least start working out too so I can (if lucky) still have some.strength and energy later in life. And if not I’ll know it wasnt something I could have prevented.
