So many people neglect this area, which has such a huge effect on all areas of our lives.

Thanks for this post! I have to read it again (And again. And…) And I will! Activating your sensors is a good thing for your awareness of what’s happening in the world around you (if you have a lot of places in your life where you can rest and where it’s very quiet

Have a great day!

Thanks so much for being honest about what happened after you became a millionaire. It’s fascinating to see how this changed your perspective on money.

And I’m really glad you suggested focusing on your health. Fitness has always been very important to me. I find that I am so much more productive at work as a result of exercising, because I am alert, focused, and at ease most of the time.

I had to read this post about 3 before I could process a way to comment on it. There’s so much in it that I think a response could be as long as a blog post.

I think you made a very interesting point about “borrowing a ready made identity” being dangerous for your mental health. The thing with that is that it really is a dependency on external factors for what makes you happy or what motivates your actions and your life. So, let’s say you’re completely f’d up on the inside, then having millions is just a more extravagant way to display this.

Self assesment when you start this journey is one of the most challenging truth’s to accept. Last nite I was talking with an old friend about certain people I was friends with in college who would tell it like it is and I eventually stopped being friends with them. I realized that this largely stemmed from insecurity. Self assessment reveals the things that are really hard to accept about yourself that you don’t like, but once you accept them , then you can get work on fixing them.

Health: I can’t believe how much of a difference this makes in my life. The healhier you are the happier you are and the more productive you are. It shouldn’t be neglected for anything. In November I found a job after 6 months of looking for one. By the third day of the job, I hated it to smuch that I found myself smoking cigarettes at lunch. In that moment I knew if I got out of that job regardless of what anybody said, I would be better off for it. If you are not in good health, all the rest is for nothing.

I think the final sentence of this post really sums it up nicely. Whatever comes you are ready for and look forward to. With that kind of attitude it seems like life will just keep getting better. Very profound thought provoking post.
