8 years ago my brother (he was 19 at the time) asked me how much money I had in my bank account. I told him I had around $3 or $4 and he looked at me crazy and asked âhow is it you can be so happy when you have no money?â
My dad worked extremely hard to make sure we were never without, but the stress he carried about money haunted me my entire life. So much so that I became obsessed with learning how to be happy without it.
That was the year that I decided to become a DJ. For the first time ever, I had started to pursue something solely b/c I was excited about it, as opposed to thinking about how much Iâd earn, or how successful I could become.
I barely made enough to eat more than once a day when I started out, my parents were frustrated with me on a daily basis, but the freedom that I felt learning how to do something unconventional/apart from the norm brought me so much joy.
I say all that to say, prioritize your peace. Once you get a taste of what true happiness feels like, you wonât ever want to let go.
The beauty is that itâll become easier b/c you will also start to attract more people doing the same and develop some life long friendships along the way.
