You are ultimately responsible for your own happiness and many times we are risking our own happiness to fit into a box of what someone else defined as success. Money, title, power, appearance, etc...... let’s be honest, those can all be apart of the equation but the process to getting those things is more important due to the character and relationships built over that time. So when I ask are you willing to risk your happiness- what I am really asking is two things: are you willing to settle for mediocre knowing you could’ve/should’ve done better?
