I reached financial independence a year ago, and left the workforce. I just love my new life. I have not missed the rat race for one second. I love the outdoors and I continue to learn and grow. A simple life and time freedom is pure joy.
Ohh I could only imagine how happy and satisfied you are now.. this is my dream also to achieve financial freedom and then left the work but my current situations in life I am not sure whether I will get this satisfied life or not.. but happy for you friend ❤
It definitely is nice to have a partner who's on the same page. I have a 30-hour work week, which is slightly longer than his work week, and we work together to live simply. 😊
I hear you and can relate. I also rent and work, so I understand the challenges that come with that. Living frugally has really helped me reduce costs and save, which has allowed me to create a life that works best for me. It's all about finding the balance that works for your situation.
What a beautiful message. It's all about the steps and the progress, which do lift some of that heaviness off our shoulders, no matter where we are in life. Needed this reminder. Thanks. ❤
@@ASlowSimpleLife I just watched your rat race film. It was brilliant and sums up why we choose a different path for life. Have a wonderful weekend too!
Good job for leaving the rat race. As for me I’m stuck. Yes i make a lot of money and I’m Able to afford luxuries in life, have a big house here in Texas yet my job and my boss is stressing me out , I feel imprisoned 😢
Thank you for your kind words. I understand how you feel-it can be tough when you're in a high-stress job, even with all the material comforts. For me, leaving the rat race was a difficult decision but ultimately rewarding because it aligned with what I truly wanted for my life. I hope you find a way to balance your needs and desires to achieve the peace and fulfillment you're seeking. ❤
Great quote from Seneca. Its sometimes hard to leave the rat race ; it might bring admonishment from some, but you have to go the path that's meant for you.
Hi, (From India), Such a wonderful video with amazing thoughts on display. Your narration makes it much more pleasant to watch. It makes one feel calm. Also the idea of using famous quotes on simple living was nice. Well Done :)
Been getting a lot of videos about this lately. I want it...i just need to figure out what i can live without bill wise and how to cut back on utilities. My home mortgage is my last real debt and working on pitting more and more down on the principle as i can.
Witaj Suzy🙂 z przyjemnością obejrzałam Twój filmik o prostym stylu życia🤗 bardzo mnie zrelaksował ja też już zwolniłam i dostrzegam dużo rzeczy których przedtem nie widziałam bo nie miałam na to czasu...tak jak mówisz jest zdecydowanie lepiej żyć🍀 Jakieś fajne bułeczki upiekłaś🤔 Pozdrawiam cieplutko i życzę cudownego weekendu😎...Ewa z Polski❤
Hello Ewa, it's wonderful to hear from you. I'm glad my video had that effect on you and lovely to hear the effect of slowing down on you ❤ Wishing you a beautiful weekend as well 🙏❤️
I like the last scene when you were walking through a beautiful shiny pathway 😍and i am Indian the very last scene where cows are shown for a moment i thought it's India as the cows looked like Indian Gir cow 😂 because of their downward ears😂
Thank you, and I'm glad you liked it. Oh, now that I think about it more and recalling the cows I saw on my lovely visit to India, you are right - they do look a little like Indian cows. They are so adorable ❤
@@ASlowSimpleLife I am glad to hear that you have been in India and liked it here. India is a right place to know about spirituality and how to live simple life because that's what our great sages gurus taught us from ancient times. If you could plz read Bhagwat Geeta a book teaches how to live life in a best possible way. It's a preaching given by lord Krishna to his friend and devotee Arjuna on the battlefield as written in great Indian epic Mahabharata.
@@Anamika-if5fh, thank you for that recommendation. I will look for it. Your county is so wonderful, and it will always have a special place in my heart. The culture, spirituality, nature, people, and of course, the food - it is truly one amazing place and I feel blessed to have been there. My husband and I plan to visit again, and to go on a motorcycle ride to the magical Ladakh ❤
Soothing video. Im from Singapore and in the process of transiting to the China countryside with my wife, tired of the rat race and totally agree with what you said. Which part of Thailand are you at? Peace.
Thanks so much for watching and sharing your thoughts! Wishing you and your wife a peaceful and fulfilling journey away from the rat race. I am in Northern Thailand. Peace and light to you 🙏
I get what you’re saying-money definitely makes things easier. But for us, it’s not just about the money; it’s about embracing a simpler lifestyle that works for us.
