MMM…
You should give up. On everything that’s not working. Give up on the things that don’t serve your best interest.
These are my terms and conditions that I want to share with anyone willing to spend their time reading this. MMM: meaning, making, and money — in that order of importance.
👷🏽 Making
Us humans are creations, and as creations, we’re here to create, too. Whether it’s a chair, a song, a connection, or muscles, we each find our own way to build.
🔮 Meaning
Alright, let’s make something. But “Why?” I asked. I wondered. I wandered, reflected, let go, searched more, and explored. For meaning. Then I realized I needed to look back at #1: making. We’re here to create the meaning. Bam. Make the meaning of your life however you want. Isn’t that beautiful?
🪙 Money
Unfortunately, making and meaning alone don’t cut it. Being alive costs money in this decade. Yet fortunately, money, at its core, is just a vehicle for storing value. It isn’t its own thing. It’s about what we value, and how we choose to exchange it.
I’ll dive deeper into each of MMM next time. For now, consider this as an invitation to notice what you’re making, question what it means, and observe how money and your values flow through it all.
On the journey,
