Life is full of twists and turns and ups and downs, but if you choose the right path, it can be very rewarding. However, finding the right path can be tough. You have to truly know yourself, and you have to know what's important.
Entering the second half of my life, my priorities have shifted and I've realized what's really important. For me, it's not about needing more and always hustling. It's not about money, status, and materialistic stuff. It's about requiring less. Simplifying my life and focusing on the basics. Living with intention, forging my own path, and living a life that's true to who I ACTUALLY am. Not who society tells me to be. And all of that starts with the truth, because without it, purpose, fulfillment, and peace cannot exist.
So how do we find the truth? I've found that it starts by simply asking questions. So let's ask them...

Society has fooled you into chasing the wrong stuff. America wasn't a sustainable business when we had strong family values and made stuff that didn't break, so they tricked you into believing that the only way to find happiness was to buy more stuff.
And so begins the age of consumerism and materialism.
America has adopted this mindset and it keeps us trapped. We're stuck working away the best years of our lives just so we can buy all the stuff we think will make us happy, all in hopes to some day retire so we can do all the things we've been putting off our entire lives.
Then one day, we get all that stuff and realize we just wasted our entire life chasing after something that didn't do anything to fill that void.
The only person that can change things and create the life of your dreams is you.
What are you going to do about it?
