The idea of sacrifice, how we tend to think of it is like sacrifice as in just giving something up.
But this is not the case at all.
Like if we're reducing our expenses so that we can invest, we're actually choosing something else.
We're choosing saving, we're choosing investing and we're choosing all the benefits that come along with that.
But all we tend to focus on is this little thing that we're giving up.
So I think we need like a mindset shift around that kind of thing, around the idea of sacrifice.
So that's an important one.
But, yeah, like there is a lot of things that a lot of –
unhelpful beliefs that we have around money and what it takes to build wealth and whether you're worthy of it sometimes people feel guilty about saving money or having money or they think they need a certain education and they need a certain level of intelligence like you were saying but that's really not the case at all you just need to have
a certain level of interest and be willing to learn and be willing to make certain changes and just be willing to keep taking action towards a goal that you want for your future.
um how you think about like lifestyle design and like what reaching financial independence has done for you and how you structure your day or your life now yeah it's it was a bit of a random answer i suppose wasn't it i liked it yeah uh um lifestyle design so i i kind of think about it in terms of i want to
have time for everything that I want to have time for.
I don't want to feel too restricted.
I like to have a routine, but I also don't like
to feel boxed in by that routine.
So it's like a fine balance because I wanna do certain things, but I don't wanna feel like I have to do them.
So it's quite strange in that respect.
So I guess as for my lifestyle at the moment, in the mornings I like to spend time, usually productively, like I like to spend time writing and I also do exercise in the morning.
In the afternoons, I like to hang out with my partner and our dog, play with the dog, go for walks, maybe go for a bike ride, hang out in the garden or maybe we'll go to the beach and have a coffee or something like that.
Or run a few errands if we have things to do, I'll do that in the afternoon.
