In one of our previous episodes we discussed one of our readers who sent an email about being content where they are. During the course of our discussion we touched on not working for money. Today we will talk about what exactly that mean. Everybody believes that they work for money. You make a deal and sell your lifetime: eight hours plus commute and then you receive money for your real life. This started in the Middle Ages, or perhaps even thousands of years ago. As professionalization kicked in people began doing the stuff that they were good at for a living. 

"Don't survive, thrive!"

If you are doing this, you are being average! And I want you to be excellent, not average. The question that you need to answer for yourself is: why are you here? If you just want to live, make babies, watch them grow, and then die this podcast is not for you. This is 2019, almost 2020. Don’t survive, thrive! Now you can make a legacy and leave something. A single person can affect hundreds of thousands and millions of people even after they’re gone. Most of our listeners are based in Western Europe. You are living in where you can do whatever you want, whenever you want.The world is full about five billion people who have a reason to suffer. If you live in in Western Europe, then I am sorry to say you do not have a reason to suffer. Although the word ‘consequence’ has a negative connotation, there can be positive consequences for a certain action. I worked my ass off to get this company off the ground and now I face the consequences: I can work whenever I want for as long or as I want.

"If you don't like your job, go somewhere else!"

If you don’t like your job, go somewhere else! My intention is to give you an idea of your opportunities and options. My invite is don’t live an average life, live an awesome life. So why not work for money? Because life is too short to suffer. Everyone loves money, but is it that colored piece of paper that brings you happiness? Or is it the possibility of things that money can bring? Don’t go to a crap job only for the money. Instead, have your focus on what you want to do with your life. 

"Understand your meaning, your purpose!"

Unfortunately, people tend to live in extremes; either I work in an office in a job I hate, or I sit on the beach all day doing nothing. Why can’t you work your job, but in your free time work on monetizing a passion so that you can end up doing something that makes you happy but also provides an income. Work for entertainment. Work for fun. Understand your meaning, why you’re here! Life’s too short to suffer, so don’t work for money!
