Today's challenge for the @risingtidesociety #therechargechallenge asked creatives the question of defining success, and it took me all day to put a name on it. I feel I'm most successful when I can make CHOICES. Sure money is a big drive but what it ultimately gives me is the ability to live life how I want to. I have the choice of how I want to plan my day- no one writes my schedule but me. I have the ability to choose who I spend my time with, no matter how far away they are. I can choose to work my ass off and have some extra in the bank, I can also choose to not take jobs, plan to be a little frugal and spend more time with family. I can choose to say no to a potential client (did it tonight) I can choose who I want to work or collaborate with Success= choices And this pic? It's my last night in New England enjoying a petty decadent dinner with one of my best friends ❤️ (at Hawthorne By Tbe Sea Swampscott)
