I chose freedom, but I was anxious

I want to be free

I got divorced.

At that time

I think it was the best decision of my life.

but in reality

Freedom was not peace of mind.

Rather

The anxiety of "What should I do with money"

I couldn't get it out of my head.

I want to live as I like

Reality will follow you.

I want to travel

I want to work without being tied to a place

If you think so

I thought it was impossible to change the way of making income.

that's where i met him.

How to work on SNS.

Honestly, I was worried at first.

But

If you try

It started to change properly.

It doesn't have to be someone special.

Just

Just do it or not do it.

If now

If you're wondering if it's okay as it is

Let's take a step 💫

I look forward to your comments!

How to live in your 50s

Live with real intention

... Read more自由を選んだ後に抱える不安は、多くの人が経験するリアルな感情です。私も実際に離婚を決断した後、理想的な自由と現実のギャップに戸惑いました。特に「お金がなくなったらどうしよう」という不安は、自由を得た喜び以上に心を支配しました。そんな時、私が見つけたのはSNSを活用した新しい働き方でした。 最初はSNSで稼ぐなんて未知の世界で不安だらけでしたが、少しずつ学びながら発信を続ける中で、小さな成功体験を積むことができました。何より場所に縛られない働き方は、旅をしながら自分のペースで生活したいという夢を叶えてくれました。 SNSでの発信は、特別なスキルがなくても、日常を切り取って共有するだけで繋がりが生まれます。情報発信を通じて、自分自身を取り戻し、自信を持つことにも繋がりました。実際に多くの人が「自分には無理」と感じていますが、一歩踏み出すことで状況は大きく変わるのです。 また、SNSは双方向のコミュニケーションツールなので、同じ悩みを持つ人と励まし合ったり、リアルなアドバイスを受けられるのも大きなメリットです。生活の安定には時間がかかることもありますが、継続することで確実に「自由に生きる」ための基盤が築けます。 私の経験から言えるのは、自由と安心は必ずしもイコールではないものの、新しい収入源を自ら作り出すことで、その不安は少しずつ和らぐということ。もし今「このままでいいのかな」と感じているなら、小さな一歩を踏み出してみることをおすすめします。新しい世界は意外と身近にありますし、挑戦する価値は十分にあると感じています。

Avoidant vs. Anxious — and the pain no one talks
🤍 One shuts down to feel safe. 🖤 The other clings to feel close. Both end up hurting. Both feel alone. One hides under the umbrella of silence. The other waits in the rain of overthinking. You try to talk — they shut down. You feel invisible — they feel overwhelmed. You just want connection…
