I Was An MIT Educated Neurosurgeon Now I'm Unemployed And Alone In The Mountains
This is the best inspirational video I have ever seen. It has to be shared. There are so many valuable lessons to be learned here. I have often said if you are in an unhappy place, somewhere you don't want to be, then change it. Listen to Dr Gooby's words. There is a transcript you can click on to read it at the same time. It is 48 minutes long and he speaks very slow and very thoughtfully, choosing his words carefully.
Here, I share my story about how I spent the last two decades of my life as a neurosurgeon who went through a mid-life crisis and got through to the other side.... maybe?

ReplyDeleteHi ilona,
Enjoyed the neurosurgeon video very much!! He is spot on with the way the “healthcare “ system works. No one really just prescribes a lifestyle change. “Here’s another pill, try it”. You must take care of yourself!!!
My early retirement starts August 1st. Thank you again for all your frugal tips. You have been a great inspiration in my decision to retire from the healthcare system.
I am almost free mother! To live MY life the way I want to!!!
Frugality has become a game with me and my husband. Making do, mending or doing without.
Thanks and blessings to you,
Thank you for your news. I am excited for you. Only a few more days left on the treadmill, and then you can plan the rest of your life.
DeleteThis came up on my screen the other day and it just made me want to do the things I want to do sooner haha luckily I have a lot saved now thanks to yourself and others who showed me how to be thrifty I told my now grown up boys I will be taking a few years off work next year and seeing all the places I want to see.they said you go for it mum.i mainly want to tour Wales Scotland and I adore the north Yorkshire etc.Thankyou for inspiring us Ilona your a lady with great strength wishing you the best life alwaysx
ReplyDeleteHello Jo. I am excited to read about your plans. There is no time like the present for getting things done. The pull of creating the life you want should not be ignored. As things are very volatile at the moment we cannot guarantee that the opportunities for travel will still be there in the future. So, do it now is a good plan. Grab life by the balls and get out there.
DeleteI saw this on YouTube!! It was a great message..
