Clear thinking and good priorities. I found it difficult until recently to make decisions about career and money, mostly because of the way status and security are attached to them. Giving that up has been really hard, but as I’ve learned to live with less security, my happiness and freedom have increased to the point where I’m happier than I’ve been since I was a kid.
