When the Money's Just Too Damn Good

Every time, I’ve given up. Not in an explicit “I SURRENDER” moment of defeat, but through a subtle sliding away.

The kind of sliding where you wake up a year later and wonder “when did I make this decision?” Maybe you’ve experienced that, too. That moment when you realize the current of life carried you somewhere you never fully chose to go.

My greatest professional fear is not that I will fail to write something good, but rather that I will keep abandoning writing from short-term thinking and shiny object syndrome, particularly around money.
