I think the answer to the question is, no matter how much work we do, if we aren't working on the right things, it is pointless.

That's actually something I am experiencing right now, a frustration watching my energy being poured into doing things that feels like it's taking me further away from what actually matters in my life.

That serves a reminder for me to re-aligned with what truly matters and why it mattered in my life. I just need a little bit of bravery to speak it out given when money is involved, everything gets a little too complicated in ways it shouldn't.
