Finding Mental and Emotional Freedom

Who do you think you want to be? How much of that person has been built by others' opinions, desires, or influences? If you think of who you want to be in 2, 3, or 5 years... Is it a person that lives a life you want to live, or is it a person that lives the life you think you should live? It's easy to get caught up in believing that you have to live a certain way or obtain a certain status to be happy, but the truth is: you're privileged to be where you are and who you are right now.  In this episode, I talk about why it's a privilege to be you, right now, and why waiting and hoping for future happiness from material gains is fruitless.
