What’s most important to you?

When I was 25, I invested 12k into call options.

When I was 25, I have already quit multiple jobs.

If I really wanted my full-time job back as a dishwasher, in September 2020; I could have talked to my manager, my former co-worker suggested.

I didn’t though because I was scared my manager wouldn’t rehire me.

Is being an adult really about my career? No.

I took care of me and others.

The next 20 years were better.

I felt grateful.

I did the best to make the most of my time on earth.

I worked every day to become the best version of myself.

I worked for my dreams.

I had heart.

The journey is fun, positive, and hopeful.
