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.
My wife had 2 strokes last year. I am quitting my job of 22 years next month mostly due to the company’s work from home policy.
I know not everyone is in a position to just up and quit their jobs, especially this day and age, but life is short.
