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.
I have some pretty significant, incurable and somewhat untreatable health issues, so a lot. I cannot express how glad and relieved I am that I lived so much in my 20s before my health crashed.
Live while you can.
I’m sorry to hear that 😕 its good you did what you could. Many could not say that and would regret.
This makes me feel like quitting my job altogether…but I like making decent money and not having to worry about it. But some days 9 hours at a desk is just too long.
