See Dream.
But it is more than that.
Living your dream can be a challenge because it usually means breaking old habits and leaving behind familiar, but less useful, points of view. No path is perfect. When I look at the lives of people I admire, all of them have had struggles as well as successes. The key was that they knew what they wanted. They made it. I’d prefer to reference stories of quieter successes; e.g. lives lived unobtrusively and very well, but such stories rarely are chronicled. Quiet lessons are difficult to hear, and we’re already aware of celebrities, so their stories are easier to integrate.
Call it maintenance or management, but in either case, wealth management and time management can make a big difference in how much you enjoy your dream. Don’t forget the lessons you learned that got you this far. Life is more important than money. And living your won life is the best way to spend your time.
