Let’s great it down!
Your future goal could be to buy a smaller house during retirement. That involves downsizing… meaning you’ll have to sell your current home, pack everything, probably sell a lot of stuff, research the market, and more.
But why are you doing all of this? What are your priorities? Do you want to move closer to family? Then your priorities are keeping in touch with the people you love on a daily or weekly basis. Do you want to live in a cabin in the woods? Then it’s likely that your main priority is getting closer to nature, exploring, hiking, etc.
Once you get to the core of your desires it’ll be easier for you to follow a path. Furthermore, it’ll be easier for you to alleviate stress. If you find yourself awake at night worrying about everything and anything then it means you haven’t come up with a game plan. The moment you’ll create structure your worries will start to disappear.
