In the boom, people sacrificed their joys for more money. Beyond a certain point, money doesn't increase happiness. Use hard times to evaluate what makes you happy and pursue it.
Because the research is clear. Above a basic threshold, more money doesn't make us happier. But we think it will, so we do all sorts of things that make us unhappy in order to get it.
Life is not a linear path of increasing wealth, accumulation and achievement. Don't let the money crisis draw you apart from people you love and things you love to do. Use it to draw you closer.
