The Importance of Delayed Gratification in Building Wealth

Life Matters: “I finally realized how exhausting it all is.”
Typical weekday: Wake up. Put on clothes. Brush teeth. Wash face. Make coffee. Sit down at desk to start the work day. Read the news/see what’s going on in the world. Work…avoid work…work…avoid work. Check social media for no reason. Check my stocks that never make money. Avoid laundry. Avoid cleaning cat vomit. Do some online shopping for household items. Avoid opening delivery boxes/mail. More work. Make lunch. Clean kitchen. Clean cat vomit. Open packages. Maybe go for a walk. Back to work. Do some laundry. More work. Maybe work out. Make dinner. Clean dinner. Watch some mindless TV.

What is a coward, you ask? A coward is someone who lets their fears dictate their life. They’re the ones who shy away from challenges, avoid risks, and always take the path of least resistance.

Relationship Matters: “My wife is still friends with guys she used to FWBs with a long time ago”
So myself (34m) and my wife (30f) have been together for 5 years. Married for two of those years. We have an amazing marriage, never once had to suspect each other of anything. Our trust is absolute, so this issue is more related to my personal ick and discomfort above all.
I know everyone has a past, I know I’ve had a past. I know she’s had a past. We’ve both had prior relationships and prior casual encounters, so I’m not judgemental. Everyone has a past.
She has a wide circle of friends, she’s very active on social media, she texts a lot of them often, lots of guys and girls. Lots of them she’s known back from her high school and University days before we got married.
