💰 How I Became Financially Free

When I was in my 20s, I worked really hard even without sleeping properly. 

Then I became financially free after doing it for 3 years. You can read how I did it in this blog. 

Then I was interviewed by a researcher from a university. She asked me,

 “Do you consider yourself as successful now?”

Even without taking a second, I said “No”. 

She asked me “Why?” 

That made me silent, I didn’t know what to say. After thinking for a few minutes, I said, “I’m not sure, but this is not everything I needed in life”.

After that interview, 
I couldn’t stop myself thinking why am I doing this if this is not what I want in my life. 🤔

Then I realized, it’s not money that can make me successful. It’s just one aspect. 

There are many other things that I need in my life to actually feel happy. I was looking for happiness in life as success, although I had initially thought it’s money. 

I even got pretty sick due to not having a healthy lifestyle, just living overwhelmingly stressed. 

😊 How I Became Actually Successful and Happy

So, I started to change my lifestyle first. I started loving myself and it made me feel good, really good. 

And I started spending time with my loved ones which made not just me, but them happy too. 

(I’m glad I did this, because today I’m living so far away from them, but I still have some beautiful memories because I gave my time to be with them). 

If I didn’t do that, how much could have I missed for myself and happiness that they could have missed because of my stupidity? 

This is what I needed for my life. I wanted “Success with Balance”. 

🌟 It’s the happiness I can feel about myself, 

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 With my loved ones, 

💪 Living a healthy life, 

💖 Doing what I love to do. 

If you want to become successful; then make sure to have a balanced life, because money will not take you there. 

This is why I changed my Newsletter name from “the GoalGetter” to “Success with Balance”. 😊 

Yes! Welcome to the new beginning! 

🤔 The “Top 5 Regrets of the Dying”

Don’t just take my word for it. I found this in an article written by the Guardian; the “Top five regrets of the dying” and these 5 say it all. I didn't need anything else to realize that success is 100% about living a true, happy life and never about “money”.

Bronnie Ware, an Australian nurse has recorded these 5 regrets as the most common regrets that her dying patients have told her. 

1️⃣ I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.

2️⃣ I wish I hadn't worked so hard.

3️⃣ I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings.

4️⃣ I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.

5️⃣ I wish that I had let myself be happier.
