I did not have much of a plan for my life last time, I enjoyed my non working life
And truth to be told, I have dreaded working life until now, one month before the first day of my internship
I want to be a retail trader, but I have not been working hard
There is a saying, if you don't want it like you want to breathe, then you just kinda want it
There were a lot of things that happened that made me lose focus, I fell down a lot, however I always dusted myself and moved on
My sight is set on 6 years from now, I will be 3 months shy of 30 year old by then
6 years is a lot of time, 6 years ago I was 17 year old, when I look at it from that perspective I see that so much can be done in 6 years
I have a simple goal, I want financial freedom, enough to provide for my family, to help those I care about, and to be able to do what I am passionate about
Of course, it will be one bite at a time
Hopefully I can get through the hurdles
Nowadays I REALLLY think choosing the right friends is freaking important
I am not saying that I am smart, but smart people tend to have less friends because wrong friends usually do nothing but distract you
I enjoy occasional gathering, the laughter and the lighthearted moments
But I also immensely enjoy my alone moments when I work on my own project
Which is also why I always praise the core of Buddhism "The Doctrine of The Mean" or "中庸之道"
It is truly the way to happiness, to be on balance
Too much indulgence on craving, bad for physical health ; Too much clean eating, bad for mental health
So eat clean for 5 days, then eat whatever you want for a day, Balance :)
Too much alone time, emotionally depressing ; Hanging out with friends all the time, a waste of time
Hangout once a week of once in 2 weeks. Perfect :)
To end this post with a quote that I would like myself to remember
"People always overestimate what they can do in a short time, but underestimate what they can do in a long time"
