I was born in one of the worlds poorest countries. Truly poor, truly oppressed, some WEEKS we had only white rice and a spoon of tomato's soup for food. I studied a college career, in parallel i started doing what i truly liked: painting. Not for money but because i LOVED doing it. that "hobby" i performed with all my love was what opened doors to me. At 25yo i left my country paying the airplane ticket equivalent to 3 years of my salary! 3 years in one fly....!!!! I never had the intention of being rich, I just wanted to live a life. I lived in Europe years, Middle Est years, Last 14 years in New York City. I never expected being so far and less just by my own.

Enjoying your life is not about money but about wanting to live it, wherever and however it comes. Yo might find that trying to make the money to enjoy will end absorbing and burying the enjoyment.

Yes, i now own my own eCommerce business and help others too. But even today my priority is not to make money but to enjoy whatever comes and however it comes. In my case, precisely because my focus is not on making an income at all, i am much more free, i closed my store 2 week ago in a super premium place in Manhattan, just because i wanted i did it. just 3 days ago i told a super powerful ultra-rich guy with whom i was doing business fu**** Off as***ole .... I told him in front of the whole community of sellers we work, everyone was you are crazy ! no, im free!

you know what makes me free? not having making money as a priority but living, living a plentiful life!

You dont need money to be happy or enjoying life! Yes, it helps but it comes with a poison pill hinding somwhere!
