G'day from Australia. I've recently joined after listening to the audible versions of TMFL and Unscripted .

I'm currently stuck in the corporate prison working long hours during the week, and sometimes requiring work during the weekends. It's a product of my own creation. I earn a decent, 'mediocre comfort' level salary, but the time trade off I have to make is definitely not worth it. Heck, with the amount of hours I work these days, I can barely even enjoy my 'mediocre comfort'. I feel trapped, exhausted every day and for me, unless I want to just exist in a life of 'mediocre comfort', there is no other option but to escape the rat race. I can't remember the last time that I felt genuine happiness. The thought of going to the corporate prison just makes me feel miserable. It's safe to say that I've had my 'F*ck this' moment.

I am determined to get out of the rat race, even if I have to compromise sleep for it. I'm currently working on an Amazon FBA business, researching ways that I can add value to the market. I have let my corporate job get in the way of progress, but I can't let this take over my life. I want my freedom back. I want my life back. I want to feel happy again.

Looking forward to contributing to the forum in a meaningful way!
