It's something crazy...

The thing with where great the importance one's work has on enjoyment of life and, not least, quality of life...

Since 1997, I have been trained in the office profession... and it hasn't been deathly ill all that time and I've certainly also had some cool jobs with an exciting day and good wages etc.

However, I have always followed that little voice inside that says: "Yes, it's very nice, Ekstrøm, but you're really bored..."and in retrospect, it is also COMPLETELY right.

Occasionally, when the pressure of not feeling comfortable at work became too great, a day of absenteeism was added to the list. Just to “reset”…. totally uncool, but necessary to avoid psychic explosion. As such, it is not the individual workplace at issue, but rather office jobs as a whole...

I WAS BORED!!!

Monday to Friday just had to get over… I worked ONLY to afford time off… plain and simple….

Then I started photographing… WOW…..

ALL that I never got from my office jobs in terms of content, I now got x 1000 with 180 km/h. The pay is nowhere NEAR anything special, but the content man… shut up!! This is WHAT I was made for.... Being able to feel right down to the bones that you are on the right shelf is a fantastic feeling! It's almost euphoric actually... For SO many years I have been thinking about "There must be more to it than this" but NOW, now I LOVE getting up early!

Now I get up early for ME - because now I decide myself how much or how little needs to be done - I am my own boss and I love love love LOVE it....

Where am I going with this?

Actually, just the result of a little self-examination: HAPPINESS GOES DIRECTLY INTO THE BANK ACCOUNT – both the emotional and the real kind.

I definitely think that my sweet boyfriend Mikkel and my family can feel a clear difference in me. In any case, I FEEL like a completely new person with energy, with a desire to look good and take care of my body and mind

Do you do the same??

XOXO
