I do the 9 to 5, I do the side hustle. I try to budget, I try to look at my accounts, and I make a very average salary. I pretty much make the standard for an American in my age range. The average salary. Right? And it's, it's enough to have a good life, right? It's not necessarily a free life. Um, I still stress out about certain bills that need to be paid. It's a good life. But I've been wanting more. I know that I can achieve more, and I've been working towards getting more. And I've been fighting with myself over the idea that I'm being money hungry, that I should be happy with what I have. Because I, I am lucky to have the average salary of someone in my age range. But I was, I wanted to go on YouTube to find some sort of educational podcast about finances. And I see how I budget my hundred and twenty thousand dollars salary, how I budget my 13 thousand dollar paycheck this month. You see people posting how much they're making all the time, and you're constantly being told what other people are making and that they're making more than you and that you should be making more money. And it's exhausting. Because I know I'm having a really hard time articulating what this is, what this conversation is, because one part of me is reminding myself to be grateful and to follow the things that I love to do and that will bring success. And success does not equal income. However, the other half of me, that's stressed the fuck out and that actually wants to give myself the life that I deserve, the life that I want, is like, you're not working hard enough. You're not workin. There's more work to be done. Keep going. So I have this kind of, like, internal battle going back and forth in my head, and yet my everyday actions, I'm doing everything I can, so I'm not sure what to do with that. So if you have any advice, let me know.
