GM nostr! Going into the fiat mines today. Wish me luck!

These days I'm feeling the weight of a lot of conflicting priorities. My Bitcoin work is fulfilling, but not profitable enough to avoid needing other income or drawing down from my stack. My fiat job is relatively boring, somewhat useful to society, and pays the bills, in exchange for my time. I could quit, but then I'd have to spend my Bitcoin. I'd have more time for the Bitcoin stuff, though. My family life is fulfilling, and I want to spend as much time with my family as possible. Unfortunately, this is at the expense of the other two priorities, and I can't help but feeling that if I work hard now, I will have more time for my family and friends in the future. I know I could take the leap and quit the fiat world, but that feels somewhat selfish. Why stop doing something I'm good at that lets me keep stacking? Am I stealing from my future, my family's future, if I do that? I feel like this will all come to a breaking point quite soon. I might need to make some major changes. I don't know what that looks like. How do you balance competing priorities like this?
