This is exactly how Moroccans do it! The hustle culture that I grew up with in the U.S. just doesn’t exist here in Morocco. At first, I struggled to understand how people could be so relaxed about their jobs and not work 10+ hours per day to make more money.
However, I came to notice how happy these people are, although they earn less than their potential. They are happy because they spend more time with their loved ones and have more leisure time. They are living life, rather than watching it go by.
A simple life is a happy life!
Great piece, Auriane! I’ll be coming back to this one to remind me to take it easy (and schedule in some focus time!) ☺
