Takeaways

Social media success is often seen as a measure of personal worth, but it's important to recognize that true value goes beyond online popularity.

Formal education is not the only path to success, and there are many valuable skills and careers that don't require a university degree.

Creating something, whether it's building a cabin or writing a book, can bring a sense of purpose and fulfillment to life.

Sustainability and security are important goals to strive for, as they provide a sense of stability and peace of mind.

Experiences, such as spending time in nature or engaging in hobbies, can have a positive impact on mental health and overall well-being.

Appreciating what we have and finding happiness in simple things can lead to a more fulfilling and contented life.
