The last time I had to get as organized as you describe here, I was a teacher in higher education, in The Netherlands . This was back in 2015-16. I didn't know about crypto.
I got organized, realized the healthiest thing to do was to quit my job. I was burnt out and depressed.
I then traveled to the canary islands to follow my passion, work on a film project and find back my Zen.
Two months after my return, Spring 2017, I learn about crypto, started blogging and, early 2018, I moved towards Portugal.
I have been my own boss, basically 100% into crypto and writing, since then.
Wow. I am glad you found your feet in doing what was right for your mental health. One thing I have come to understand is that sometimes we push too much in areas we do not fit in.
But the moment we step back a little and take a break, we will realize where we fit in and trust me, we will do so amazingly well in that area.
Glad you found your passion and held to it.
Nicely put. I didn't study to become a teacher, although I like to inspire small groups of people outside of the educational system.
Have a great day!
