And if you only have the humble slash depressed side, you're never going to get anywhere.

Part of me says like, I can keep doing this and do good work.

What I think is true is that on average, people who have more money tend to have fewer bad days, but I don't know if they have more better days.
I think it is more likely that when you have more money, you are less likely to wake up and be like, man, things are not going well.
But that doesn't necessarily mean that you're going to wake up grinning ear to ear.
Now, that's a lifestyle improvement.
If you have fewer bad days, that's great.
Your life is better.
