Hi Jason! I recently stumbled upon your substack, and saw you are also a Central Coast resident. My wife and I are also on the FI path living in the same area, and are getting to the stage of transitioning to part-time and/or a long sabbatical. Feel free to reply or reach out if you'd ever like to meet up in person!

Related to your article, the achievement aspect of certain actives resonates a lot with me. Outside of work, that has been fitness and golf related accomplishments for me lately. But with more time, I'm also interested in pursuing other hobbies like music, surfing, and cooking where some level of accomplishment is part of my interest.

During COVID I did some hour long lap swimming sessions (without music/podcasts), and noticed I would gain more clarity on thoughts rattling around in my head. I should probably revisit doing occasional swims/hikes without that audio distraction again.

Hi Jason! Love two sides of Fi. Thanks for the conversations.

I am 36, contemplating fire, finances might be ok, asset allocation needs work. Long story! I am a long distance runner and dream of quitting work and pursuing endurance sports non competetively. Guess need something to accomplish or look forward to
