I have been meaning to engage with this community for quite some time already and this week I felt very inspired to answer the second question:
Where do you see yourself 5 years from now? Has Hive changed your prospects?
So actually I have had kind of the same goals for my life for some years already, everything just hasn't come to fruition yet. That's partly because of the pandemic but of course I also have a responsibility to make things happen. I feel hopeful though and really believe things will change for the better. And I'm motivated and determined to keep working on myself and to do everything I can to be where I want to be. And it was nice with a 5-year time frame because I also feel my goals are realistic to reach within 5 years.
So firstly, I see myself having a base somewhere in Europe. Maybe I flat that I can rent out when I'm not there (can't be in Sweden though since that's not really possible long-term here). So the first step is to take some action and sell my flat in Stockholm. I actually hope to do that in about 6 months' time. This is a rather big step but something I feel I need to do in order to get the ball rolling.
I would still like to have a base in Sweden as well though. I see my (future) cottage as this place. As some of you know, that's a rather big project and also a rather big investment. But luckily my mom is investing in a house close to the cottage at the moment so I'm hoping to spend more time there when spring arrives 🙂
As I don't like the winter here in Europe I see myself spending the cold months in Asia somewhere. Could be Thailand, Bali, or India. This can also vary from year to year. I'm rather flexible here 🙂
So I see myself having a somewhat nomadic lifestyle but at the same time opportunities to just be still if that's what I want. I hope to be able to move freely between these different places as I please.
When it comes to my professional life I hope to run a successful business and to be able to work from anywhere. I hoped to be up and running with this sooner but 5 years seems realistic for sure.
One big desire is also to have overcome my health issues. This is what has been holding me back a lot for quite some time already. And I also believe that I'll be able to do so.
I see myself with a life partner who also wants to have a rather nomadic lifestyle. Of course I'm open to adjusting this plan but not completely I guess. I couldn't see myself staying here in Stockholm long-term but I'm rather open when it comes to where to move and how much to travel.
In five years I also hope to have invested successfully in crypto and that this will help me not to have to work so much. Or more, allowing me to spend time doing things I love, whether that's generating money or not. I'm not sure if Hive will play a part in this but I sure hope so (don't we all?). But I know Hive has changed my prospects in the sense that I have so many people I would love to visit from all around the world. 🙂
I'm also looking forward to continuing on my spiritual path and I'm curious to see where I'll be in 5 years' time. I hope to still be motivated and inspired to take care of myself in the best possible way. To eat healthily, exercise regularly, and spend a lot of time in nature. I hope to have found joy in cooking and to have learned more about herbs. Actually, this morning I was thinking that I wanted to learn how to make my own body lotion and I haven't really felt that way before so things are already in motion.
Of course, 5 years is not an end destination and some of these things might change of course. But as I'm writing this it's clear to me that I have a lot of things to look forward to and it lights me up. I also really feel that all of this is possible for me. I have so many tools available to me and I have already done so much work. I just have to keep going and also accept and be open to new challenges and opportunities along the way.
I would love to invite @nikolina 🙂
