The best cold brew I’ve ever had ☕
I can't remember when I last bought a cold brew.
Since my unemployment, I've had to revert back to some of my college ways... but being "broke" forces creative solutions.
Instead of spending $3-5 per day on coffee, I go around universities and libraries to work. Instead paying for a temp pass with jiu jitsu, I just drill my 10th planet warmups at my Kung Fu school.
No lie. As much as I try to look at the positives, sometimes it really tough. Sometimes I wish that life would just cut me a break.
Earlier today, I cried in my car.
Every time I go to dinner with my family, it hurts saying "table for 3". When I look at the missing seat, it's a reality check. Dad* isn't coming home.*
Every Valentine's day, Dad would take us out to eat. I miss those days.
Right now, I'm in rough times emotionally and financially. There's days where I want to give up on everything. But if it can make stick it through tomorrow, it could be the light at the end of the tunnel.
I'm going for broke.
This is my opportunity to start and launch my business that I always wanted.
Every day I work on my podcast, videos, articles, investing course, and apply to non-traditional pharmacy jobs. But things never seem to move as quickly as I want it to.
If my dad was watching me, he would say "Sit down. Relax. Everything can wait. Just enjoy life a bit."
So Dad, today I did.
This Valentine's day, I sat down to enjoy a coffee and show myself some love. I'm trying to just enjoy life a little bit, even though you're gone.
Thanks dad for reminding me about self love. Issa practice.
Man, I miss you so much.
