RE: Why I Stopped Writing about Finance..
Ya, here in the modern society, the risk of getting your life endangered is lesser compared to last time when we were not civilized back then. Yet, to balance it out and to persuade ourselves to take controlled risk is a training. Like myself, I will set the milestone and try to achieve that, at least with a reference point to persuade my brain.
Good point about the persuasion bit, I think that is why it is so key who you hang around. It influences our perception of what's risky and what's achievable. If everyone in your family is a doctor, that is your reality, and may even be expected of you.
However if you grow up poor and your family is uneducated, that can seem like such a pipe dream and not do able for someone like you.
Setting milestones is great, because achieving small steps are not so intimidating. Achieve enough milestones and you've hit your goal!
Yup, nice summing up. Following positive streemers and learn from each other, also part of the learning journey. 👍👍
