My dream is to own a family cottage on a small lake.
Actually my dream is to achieve that while maintaining a level of freedom. Meaning, I am not willing to give up my life while I am achieving that and unplugging from family, physical and social endeavours while I work hard.
Slow and steady wins the race and I try constantly to be aware of how much we fool ourselves and stop doing that every chance I get.
Blame is focusing on the problem. I would rather focus on the solution and get it done.

Thanks man!
Great post, thank you.
"Slow and steady wins the race"
That´s the point of course it´s sometimes hard to keep your focus on the target. But that´s part of the game.
I try to get my financial freedom in gaining a part of my income through trading. It´s not, that I want to live 100% from trading. That´s too much. But for the first step it´s a good goal to keep my focus on gaining small but constant profits.
I love your idea of the family cottage at a small lake.
We are about to get to point buying a small house in Sardinia.
That´s what I´m draming of, too.
Cheers mate, have a good time and a lot of success!

Hey @zekepickleman!! That's a fantastic dream and your approach is even better. Some (myself included) sacrifice precious years of our lives by keeping our heads completely down and pursuing our goals with an unwavering intensity and all-consuming lifestyle - if you can even consider it a lifestyle!
I'm hard-wired to go all-in or go find something else to go all-in on. It's the way I've grown up and it's the way that I learned how to strive for achievement. That was the reality of the social circumstances that shaped me into who I am.
I am trying to get better at balancing out my life and enjoying some of the small things while also pursuing my goals at the same time. My upcoming trip to Europe is a great example of me trying to strike that balance, we'll see if I can tear away from my office without having a breakdown haha
Yah you can do it.
I probably just have had more of my life pass me by (in the sense of time) and I exchanged a good number of years for money and lessons.
I tend to sneak up on things rather than just go all in so there are changes I can make to my commitment and dedication to make the most out of the effort I put into projects.
Fantastic post!
