What little decision has created the most happiness in your career?

Leave a job that doesn't make you happy

1st decision - working remote. I guess you could call it a huge decision, but yes - it's amazing!

2nd decision - getting a dog. I can't say it enough - how much it helps. I now have two dogs (long story!), and without them, I don't think I could handle the stress.

I work remotely, but opt to work in a co-working space that I walk to, year round. The social aspect is great, but the built in 3.5 to 4km of walking and fresh air every day along with music/podcasts is the clearest win of anything I do.

It's exercise, and mental and spiritual time. Allows me to get into work mode in the morning and back to dad mode on the way home without any commute stress.

Decision to seek financial independence and to retire as early as possible. I’m not there yet, but I already mentally don’t give a damn - if they fire me, there are plenty of other jobs when I can get the capital I’m still missing to reachy goal. This is a very freeing way to work, otherwise I’d go crazy with stress from my job.

If you think of something, create it out. No point keeping it in the head.
