The Upgrade Trap

More money. More status. More responsibility.

It sounds like progress. It’s what we’re supposed to want.

But every upgrade has a price.

Less freedom. Less time. Less peace.

We tell ourselves it’s worth it. That the raise, the title, the bigger business will make us happy.

But at what cost?

Moving into the corner office moves you further from your family. Doubling your business doubles your stress. Each step up the ladder takes away more of your free time.

Wealth is visible. Freedom isn’t.

Is the next upgrade giving you more of what matters, or just more?

Are you buying a better life, or a busier one?

The world will keep offering you more.

Make sure the price is worth paying.
