Pretty simple. Live a life that I enjoy. So many people have a binary view of work; meaning, "I am working" or "I am not working". For me, it's about working the right amount, having the quality of life I desire, living where I want, and having the flexibility to do the things that I want.

I say this as someone that has "made money"; meaning, a substantial amount to retire if I want to, I enjoy the psychological safety that continuing to earn income provides. That said, I'm doing that on my own terms, and I've fully steered away from an employee/boss relationship to business partnerships.
