A Life Well Lived
The rules we grew up with about how the world works are rapidly changing. It's now possible to travel full-time before retirement. Work can be more fulfilling than just paying the bills. And "success" is being defined less by how big a person's bank account is, and more by how satisfied they are with their life.
Too many people settle for just surviving, but you're not one of them. It's time to define for yourself what success looks like. It's time to dust off those long set-aside dreams, and truly live.
