Anyway, I have a recurring character in my life...

Not going to happen in my life, as it would be a major change, which I'm not willing to go thru.

Quote from @Scott Trench: What I have seen in my own life was this..- Working a W2 as a firefighter, posting and consuming content- Leaving my W2 to dive deep into real estate investing and working as an agent... and still watching/posting content all while business was ok - Deleting social media apps (one have one on my phone that I use 10 minutes or less a day), diving deep into building my business and skills which have drastically increased due to pure focus and increasing my business significantly- moral of the story... focus on the things you need to do in business (dollar productive activities) and life experiences while reducing consumption will increase your success  

Like many problems in life, the answer is "What do you want most?"

That pain could take the form of working long hours, putting other aspects of your life aside for business, or uprooting your entire life for a short period to escape the rat race.

If you can get to 10 over a 20-year period, you will change your life and look like a genius.Increase earnings, reduce expenses, save, and invest.

I understand that nothing in life is free.

I understand that nothing in life is free.

In answering the where to live question, things about the quality of life things that are important to you and work backwards from there.

I never got the whole "this will change your life" sales pitch - it is only going to change your life if you put the work in.
