I am thinking a lot about money versus wellbeing. I want stability and growth, but I also want energy left at the end of the day. How can I weigh those things without feeling like I am compromising?

I’m not entirely sure. I spent a good chunk of time sacrificing well-being for growth, and am just now getting to a point where I can find that well-being again.

I have realised growth that costs your health eventually asks for repayment. It feels like timing matters, not just choice. I am trying to learn earlier than I did last time.

I have been thinking about this a lot lately. I thought about taking a job that pays less to have a little better work life balance. But in this economy, it is really hard to know what the right choice is.

That uncertainty is exactly what I am struggling with. Balance sounds ideal until bills and insecurity enter the picture. I am starting to think the right choice might be one that keeps options open, not just pay or peace.
