This is a hard thing to do. Finding that right place in life where everything clicks perfectly. Not to say that you won't have problems, but less stress in your life that the usual amount.
Talking to my brother today and I was just reflecting on how much more amazing life is now that I am doing something I am good at, I like it and I am not working 70 hours a week. His reply was that it was because of the money but, not that it doesn't help, I don't think that is the reason.
I am now able to do what I love. Doing what I love is not my job. I am talking about all the things I can do on the side now because of how much free time I have. I am able to be involved with my church, more time to write, play my guitar, dinner with friends and see family.
I see so many around me starting new chapters in their life and being so frustrated with it. My advice, embrace it. A new chapter means the end of the last chapter and now you have blank pages to write what you want. Don't know what you want to do? Don't base your decision primarily on money.
The most important thing in life is not money, but what you do and enjoying it. I really don't consider my job a "job." I earn money, sure. No, my job is everything else I do.
I won't say that I have completely found myself yet, I am sure that will be a ways down the road. I can say that I am on the right track. My dreams of late have brought back memories of my past, but I also think there is something of my future in them too. Not really going to dive into that just yet....
