RE: I'm Forced To Think In Dollars, Is That Wrong?
Reading this made me feel much better I swear. It's exactly as you said; a job provides us with the ability to fund our lives and get going, pay debts and much more. Sure will come a day where we could focus more on things that we genuinely enjoy, and I believe Steemit could be a great supporter to this lifestyle where you get paid for doing the things you enjoy. This comments means a lot to me so thanks ❤️❤️
I've been there due to my ex and a friend I tried to help out. The result was I carried the debts and they started a new life.
The bitterness for me was that not one cent I paid off was because I had fun, a good time ir even ate some candy bar or good food.
It helped me to calculate what the minimum was I needed, to reward myself first (save even it it is 1 dollar per week), pamper yourself once per month if the new income arrives (coffee, cake, cream, a magazine, walk in the park), do 3 nice things for yourself daily (hot shower, sit in the sun, listen to music) and write it down.
If it comes to jobs: employers expect loyalty but everyone can and will be replaced. It's good to build a life, who you are on your likes and focus on that. The job is just a small part of our lives and it should stay that way so there's no emptiness or loss of identity if jobless.
You will make it if you stay true to yourself.
I hope Steemit will be that help.

Exactly, a job shouldn't be more than a small part of our lives not "our lives". I also understand the point you explained that I need to also reward myself to handle the financial stress which is one of the worst types of stress. I really hope Steemit will be that help as well. I'll try my best to do things that I enjoy so I'm not always under this pressure. Thanks again ❤️
As long as you are aware of the funny, relaxing things you do (writing them down helps to see it's not all about work) you will find that balance.
That's for sure. And that's what I hope to achieve very soon.
🍀♥️
