Why on earth would you settle for one or the other? Of course everyone wants to have things taken care of. We want to live in our own space, pay for the things we need and want and feel like we are in control. As someone who is constantly working on this balance, I know first hand how it feels to be less than secure.
I had a secure job. I worked it thru Covid as an essential worker, I worked it and made just enough to be secure but not enough to be happy. It didnt give me any extra time or money but I didnt need anything. Secure is overrated. In those brief secure moments when I could be adventurous, we are only talking here in the states or maybe Mexico. No tropical or intercontinental adventures.
I think we all have that desire to do and see things more than what we are offered in our secure little bubbles. I am pushing myself and growing not only personally but hopefully financially where I can be comfortable with spending more on adventure. In the mean time this business I am growing is its own adventure.
Today I was in Mississippi, on a facetime color consultation. First video consult, first test to see how I can offer this service to others and expand. I got to see out of their window to a much more luscious green view than what is offered here in the 120 Vegas desert I live in.
My income will continue to increase and that will supply me with security. But I am here for the new things, the new places, activities, new friends etc that will motivate me more towards and adventurous life!! Never settle for this or that. Always strive for this AND that!!!
