We are all making sacrifices in life. How do you know you're making ones you're happy and proud of? A 'good' sacrifice would be an example like chess. If you can bait the opponent with a lower quality character - pawn - to take out a higher value one, then that's a 'good' sacrifice. Something lower for something of greater value. Right? So what sacrifices are you making to exchange lower value for higher value in life? It comes in ALL forms. Time to cook - healthier body Time checking in on friends - harmonious relationships Work for $$$... but are we content with that value exchange? Where is the discontent in your life? It may be attached to a value exchange you may be unhappy with, but haven't yet put it into words. I was unhappy being so exhausting being a physical labourer. I put a lot of pride in being the strongest worker. But I was just the most tired guy getting paid the same as the laziest guy. It is WISDOM and TEACHABILITY that raises your salary. So I became a learner, so I could replace my physical labour and delegate projects. Some people are happy to explore the pride of strong workers, but we need a backbone to ask how we may elevate our value and position ourselves in new skills to actually elevate our compensation. You're allowed to be discontent IF you are willing to do the uncomfortable work and navigate into the unknown and explore different variations of sacrifice to feel contentment with your energetic exchange in the world. What sort of 'good' sacrifices have you made in your life? How did it feel navigating those choices?

Yup, you read that right. I was fortunate enough to be invited to a Christmas traveller potluck here in queenstown New Zealand. There was 50-80people wandering through and making themselves at home in this house for Christmas. Christmas felt like a joke that everybody was in on in this green land. No decorations, no music. Just a very welcoming group knowing what it’s like to be alone on Xmas abroad. Wholesome, right??! I got caught up (somehow) having deep conversations about free will and how much we we are really in control of our life and make some good connections. Meanwhile, 10-15people are throwing around little baggies of coke and MDMA in the living room .. MID-DAY on Christmas. They were respectful enough to their space. But it made me realize how utterly unshocked I am by how bizarre life and new environments can be now. So this takes the cake as my weirdest Christmas to date. Do you guys have weirdest-Xmas stories?😅

Hey people, I’m spending my downtime in this strange country recalibrating my soul on reflection to all the goodness that this weird year has been! I’m taking my downtime until the new year to message EVERYBODY who’s had a positive impact on my year. There is nothing more soothing than meditating on the goodness of life and spending time reminding others that they are uniquely appreciated. The more elaborate and specific the better! It will fill your holidays with a depth and sense of connection that’s as close as an intentional text away. Voice-notes are all the sweeter🤌 Ultimate points for hand-written letters. It lasts the longest and is your voice hand-crafted in every slant and swoop. What do you love most about the holidays? Any traditions you’ve grown over the years to make it sweeter?

Wowee, what a year!! And yet there is still room for surprise! I just landed in a new town with a new rental AND a new job all in one week of effort! AAANNNDDD set up a new side-income... Soon to share :p And would be happy to help others offer their gifts if it's relevant... I DIGRESS! I just wanna share this little celebration of my new morning views, as long as the brilliant company of this cat, Holly. LOL What new beginnings did you celebrate this year? What new beginnings did you NOT anticipate this year?😆
