I don't wanna get too detailed because it's somewhat "pin pointy" but it's through a site like the proofreading/freelance one I sent you. Basically, I do training of sorts. I normally do work with a good handful of clients a day but it is very much on my own terms.

Thanks for letting me know. I'm inspired by you to give freelancing a shot. Sound like a good plan?

Keeping busy is where you're more productive and driven to achieve results.

Which one do you practice?

To me, Lifestyle Minimalism and keeping busy can be the same thing. I'm an example of that.

I agree. It depends what you keep busy with: reading or climbing the corporate ladder. I also have recently developed an enjoyment of reflection. Nearly everything I do is solitary of course.
