Episode 3510:

Colin Wright shares how this approach helped him avoid restrictive contracts, reassess priorities, and make more intentional choices.

Quotes to ponder:

“Think back to who you were and what you were doing with your life two years ago. Are you the same person with the same needs?”

“If you want to give it a shot, do what you can to eliminate existing commitments from your life and don’t accept any new ones beyond a certain span of time. It’s that simple.”

“This kind of lifestyle comes with limits, but they’re far less invasive than the limits you remove.”
