I just survived one of the largest natural disasters in recent history. If I've learned anything from suriving the Nepal earthquake, hands down in the dirt, surrendering and thanking God for my life and time all over this planet, it's that I value me. I value that I am living. I value life. And all life, is is time. Time to do what you love, and who you love doing what you love with. I will not waste another second dedicating my time to someone or something that does not value me highly enough.

Is this my ego talking? Am I wrong to accept an offer that does not equate with where I was at before? My gut tells me I am proud of myself for telling Bob Levenstein something else has to be considered whether that is redefining the role or meeting me halfway. I am ok without them. I will dedicate my time to something worthy, something I love, for people I love. It may not equate in $$, at least not right away, but money is not everything. My time is everything, and I know how to spend my time, dedicate my time, and earn my time. Time is life and I love living it!

Money is a tool in life, an asset, indispensable, a way to spend your time. It does not change your soul, or that internal clock of how much time you have here.
