- danroc 8y agoI guess you did (1) in order to be able to (2). How was that a mistake? You did not have savings or a plan? (considering doing the same here...)
- miguelrochefort 8y agoI am frustrated by the state of the world, and I have a urge to fix it. I can't tell if it's a legitimate concern, or if I'm being delusional. The delusion and frustration could be explained by undiagnosed depression and ADHD. I'm traveling to force myself out of the routine I was stuck in for the past few years. I hoped it would allow and motivate me to act upon this urge to change the world. Something else must be missing, as I'm not making the progress I expected. I'm currently trying to figure out what's preventing me from making progress. I'm doing a lot of introspection, meditation, eliminating distractions and time sinks, organizing my values, goals and commitments, using a task manager and calendar, building new healthy habits. I'm trying to fix myself before I can fix the world. My personal finances are currently taking a hit, but I hope it will turn out to be a good investment.
