For love or for money? To be honest with you, when I was small I was dreaming of becoming an astronaut. So, that doesn’t answer the question… Obviously, I didn’t become an astronaut, but it was a wonderful and unusual childhood dream.

Back to reality, right now I’m on a path to building both, career and personal life. My professional life or I guess financial independence is very important to me. I don’t see anything wrong with enjoying and taking pride in making money. As long as it’s all legal and you are not hurting anyone, money is very important. To me, money means freedom and ability to become the best version of yourself.

I think we all have a duty to become the best version of ourselves both professionally and personally. I want to reach my full potential and be everything I can possibly be. At this point of my career, I obtained my education and I’ve gained certain experience to take my career further. However, at the same time, I would like to take my career in a slightly different path. After working in a corporate world in financial/legal industry for a number of years, I would like to explore different opportunities that would help me grow professionally. I have certain ideas, goals and dreams in mind and now following the steps how to get there. And the rest is in God’s hands. And if it will lead to becoming CEO, great!

As far as personal life, of course love is also important. I think the best is yet to come… The bravest thing a man can do is to love a woman. I’m still looking for my brave man.

And I think it’s possible to have both love and money or career and family. One has nothing to do with the other. You don’t need to sell yourself for money or compromise your love for it. But you need to know how to balance it. Balance is the hardest thing in life and you need to learn how to do it without forgetting yourself or feeling guilty. Especially for women, women need a real moments of solitude and self-reflection to balance out how much of ourselves we give away. To have balance, you need to realize that there are career-life choices, and you make them, and they all have consequences. Being successful means to me having a balance of success stories across the many areas of your life. The path to life is a journey, not a destination and the journey is the reward on its own. As Eleanor Roosevelt said, "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams."
