Financial independence [FI] is not a fixed finish line — it’s not something that you cross once. ⠀

And the closer you get to FI, the less it matters. As you near FI, you’re already in such a good financial situation that you‘re approaching daily life from position of strength. Reaching an arbitrary number is nice, but it’s a side effect of the way you’re living rather than a destination.⠀

You choose to live the FI lifestyle daily. ⠀
You recommit to FI with every dollar you earn, spend and invest. ⠀

You decide to live, or not live, the principles of FI every time you make a decision about how to spend your time and energy. ⠀

It's a set of principles. It's a lifestyle. It's an ethos. It’s a philosophy of living. ⠀

Do you use a Fitbit? I love mine to help me track my stats. I name my workout to compare my progress - Chisel Agility A.K.A. 'Archery'. I increased my cardio zone time by 13 minutes by doing burpees and cross-jacks in between moves!
