Why I choose slow living over the hustle culture
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 авг 2022
- Living slowly is hard. We live in a world that idolises being busy and always working to climb the career ladder.
For a while, I felt that I had to do the same. Work became my life and I let go of any hobbies that I do just for enjoyment.
Like many of use, lock down changed my pace of life. This is what inspired me to start my blog and, eventually, choose to work part time with no intention to hustle my way into a higher pay grade. I choose to live slowly and its had a dramatic impact on my happiness.
I hope you enjoy this weeks video and, as always, thank you so much for watching.

Gorgeous walk, thankyou for taking us with you :) Loved this video and I can really relate as I decided to quit my job and do a similar thing last year. It's interesting how I then have the tendency to busy myself with other things, just learning to slow down now - like you say it's so counter-cultural but it feels so healing and so necessary for me. Wishing you well with your new ventures :) P.s where did you get your top, I love it!
Thank you lovely! Its so great to hear other people's stories. Good luck with your slow journey. Its actually part of my own sustainable merchandise. Here's the link, in case your interested :)

I quit corporate America 8 years ago. I have been slowly cultivating a real life for myself. I still have to work but I now work as a librarian aide. I go home everyday at a set time and enjoy my time off, not having others calling or texting me when I not at work. I enjoy it. I know people look down on me because I don't hustle anymore. It's ok. I don't need those people either. I enjoy crocheting, rescuing cats, simple cooking and right now, I am redoing my house, slowly.
Sounds like you have life set 💚
This comment is so cute! I love it.
Great
Some people live so obsessed with work, it's shocking to me. I understand I have to work, that's how the world is going to keep working for a while if you want to be part of society, but I'm not sacrificing my health for wealth if I'm going to suffer the last few years of my life in terrible pain. The body is a tool. It's our link between our mind and the physical world. Don't wear your body out more that you need to.
@@fraybirch1930 thank you for this comment. Currently I’m at the edge of being completely burned out due to overworking. Your words made me think….
I agree with this message. I'm a professional computer engineer, and I've been asked a few times if I want to get certain promotions, and they'd result in pretty decent pay upgrades, but much more stress. I'd rather just work what I need to do to pay the bills, and focus more on being happy outside of work, even if that's a more modest lifestyle.
Finding a way to make your life your living is brilliant. When you are content within your soul you need so much less, no longer crave “success” or “meaningful work”…learning to be happy is meaningful work!
I so agree! 😊💚
Beautifully put!
Thank you for this 🙏🤍
Thanks for this. I needed to hear it. Learn to be happy as we are, as opposed to doing things to “find happiness happy”.
Yet you cannot be happy without meaning
Once you arrive to happiness or comfort or contentment you realise it is surprisingly short lived and dare I say, shallow, compared to 'meaningful work' or a 'higher calling', whatever this might be
But it is always a good idea to try it for oneself and reach one's own conclusion
Though I'm just 22, I've started to realise how working a full time job for a month and getting a degree in engineering didn't fulfill me and was not my true purpose. It only stressed me out and made me feel ill. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I'm slowly taking steps to lead a slower life. I'm happy to find a community with similar goals.
I made that decision three times, turning down a promotion to save myself from extreme stress. I have managed quite a few times, that's how I knew if I took them the stress would harm my health.My family thinks it was silly, I know it was the wisest decisions I ever made.
I always felt this way. Never wanted to live a fast paced life.
I used to co run a busy response department, but I quit that and I now walk dogs part time which lets me enjoy the great outdoors. And now I do everything (pretty much) at home myself, saves a fortune!!! I grow produce in my garden, cook from scratch and have plenty of time to just amble along and enjoy my life😊. Next step moving to Wales 😁😁
Sounds lovely!
you're living my dream life!
As I said to my boss when she asked why I didn't wan to work more: "I'm not for the job, the job is for me". 😊
One of the best books I ever read was "Your Money or Your Life" by Joe Dominguez. He was one of the pioneers of slower, more mindful living back in 1992. There were other publications that dealt with certain aspects of slower living up to that point (many had been written for decades), but he developed a practical, financial roadmap for anyone who wished to slow down. It was revised in 2018, so it's still current thinking. I knew I did not want to lead the 9-5 until you die life, especially in the highly competitive, stressful field of litigaion, so I practiced what the book recommended, and led a debt free life. Most people who walk into my home have no idea I'm not earning what I used to, as my home is lovely. They do notice I have time to enjoy my life, and the people and places in it. I'm glad to see this is taking root in a new generation. Just discovered your channel. You are a voice for your generation and I congratulate you.
Thank you so much for such a thoughtful comment. That book sounds wonderful. On my list! 😊💚
Thank you for sharing the book. I just ordered a used one from Amazon.
1992 -I read this in India. Amazing book
So liberating to hear this positivity.
What a beautiful Soul this lady has, keep sending out your light into the world.
I feel the same way. I work to live, not live to work. Its so much more peaceful to slow down. Our awareness level rises significantly. Thank you for sharing your lovely life.
Thank you Ella! I completely agree :)
As someone about 2 decades older, I can say you are 100% correct about not doing career things just for the sake of doing them. I wish I had known that at your age. I did that for a very long time and (being quite tired now), have stepped back form it, event though I could be making a lot more money. But what would I do with more? Nothing. Time and choices are what is most important. You are learning this young- good for you! 😊
I started working part time over twenty years ago, both company`s in that time eventually wanted me gone as they only wanted full time engineers! to anybody who is reading this and has the urge to work less hours, go for it and start a new trend and maybe it will encourage more to follow in your foot steps.
Did you stay working there part time, or did they make you leave?
@Cheryl T. I managed to stay in my first job for about 14yrs, this was after being threatened with redundancy! I left and joined another company p/time for 6 yrs and was made redundant June 2023, its in the hands of the union solicitor for wrongful dismissal ATM. Join a union is also good advice for protection.
@@martinsaysell5463 👍
Loved hearing your thoughts about slow living. Wish it was something I'd known about many years ago. One of the best things about the internet is exposure to different ways of living that aren't "the norm".
Thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed 😊💚
Glad this appeared on my "feed" as I'm now 58 and I've been doing hard physical work for the last 25 years and it's time to head in a more sustainable way!! Great information and thanks for being a good influence,all the best 🙂
Thanks for your contribution in building this world!
I think most people would choose slow living if it was economically possible. Unfortunately most of us don't have the luxury
Exactly! And some people also have got lots of responsibilities in their shoulders.
The difference between life on a peaceful lake in the USA and life on a peaceful lake in the Scottish highlands...picturesque ruins! I definitely choose the highlands. -) Lovely blog, so happy I found you!
Really good to find your channel. I gave up my Senior Management role last Sept and haven’t regretted it in the slightest. I feel life had become so stressful and although I was working for a charity helping so many others, I was not helping myself. I was exhausted and when I wasn’t working I was thinking about it.
So lovely to see a like soul, someone who thinks the way I do. Simple living is so rewarding and I agree it really brings out your creativity. I have been doing photography and really enjoying capturing my walks in nature.
Lovely channel, look forward to seeing more 🦋
If you enjoy this watch the cottage fairy ..very similar but in the usa
@@sandrawright8109 hi thanks, yes I follow her also 😊🦋
There is not one material possession, not one, that feels as good as not owing a penny to anyone and being satisfied and grateful with just necessities. Working 70-80 hours a week? For what? To pay massive bills of debt that have you in a stranglehold of wretched servitude? I am so blessed to have a boring life that I can live on my terms, because I live within my means. If I can’t pay cash for it, I don’t get it. I am so glad that I am not driven by the materialistic demands of this world, nor greedy for meaningless, wasteful excess….wasting your life over things which are of absolutely no worth in the final analysis. I’ve never heard a person on his/her death bed state how they wish they had more time to work longer hours to have that larger house or that new Lambo. When you owe money and have debt, the hard truth is that your life will NEVER be your own.
This video was so inspiring. You captured my struggle so authentically. I shiver at the thought that I will have to live this corporate life for the next 30 YEARS!!! I want out, now. And because of my financial fears, I am considering taking a part-time job instead of quitting completely. Thank you for sharing your journey with us.
Thank you for your comment! I hope you find a balance that works for you :)
It is crazy out there, and it is only getting crazier by the day.
I left IL for Wyoming. Much more relaxed!
I just graduated from a nursing program and I also plan to work part time or only 3 times a week. Then save up and live like you eventually in my late 30s ;^;
@@jenniferwyoming8067 Really? I guess it depends upon where you lived in IL. I am from Maine and now in central IL and find it a very boring environment to live in.
Thank you Molly for your lovely videos.
I am fortunate to also live a peaceful slow life in the Peak District.
You continue to inspire me to make the most of my surroundings, home and nature.
You seem to have a truly unmaterialistic happy life.
Thanks again
Jane.
Yup. Lagom it is. And the connection with the nature. We do share the same kind of nature and the ability to just take a walk, pick some berries and ponder upon life is really healing. Stay true!
I love your channel, I’ve watched all your videos. They are so calm and relaxing. I quit my job last December to create the life I want and start my business. I love that your channel portrays that you can make your life move in the direction that you want. All the best!
Oh I'm so glad! Thank you so much for your support 😊💚
Thank you for your authenticity, gentle nature, and for sharing your story. Your joy and peace is undeniable, I am very happy for you in finding that place.
Thank you ☺💚
Great video, thank you, Molly, for sharing your journey with us!
This is such a valuable message. I think many of us are reconsidering our career goals and overall life trajectory. It's so helpful to hear others share their stories that it's okay to get off the hamster wheel and stop hustling just because we're "supposed to."
Well, if you manage to get such a lovely property (which is hardly achievable for the majority) and you can pay all your bills, it looks like a great way to live. Enjoy & Congratulations!
Before slow living was a thing, I thought I was just weird. Especially when I was a teen. Nowdays I actively seek ways to slow down every day and enjoy my time on earth. I even film slow living vlogs now. The most important thing is to have the intention to slow down. Everything else will come. Just don't expect change to come overnight. Take your time and adapt to a new lifestyle and see what works for you or not. Take care everyone ❤️ great video! Thanks for sharing! This is so useful!
Thank you. Beautiful encouragement in these days of insanity. God bless!
You’re living my dream life. So glad I found your channel. An inspiration 💜
this is beautiful. I have been so conflicted within my life. Im currently a stay at home mother of two. But the way our world is set up, i constantly feel the pressure of having to work towards a career. It is something i found not got full clearly on what i want to pursue or when i will be able to leave my house for long periods of time due to my children. So it has been fearful and hunts me in my mind so much that i haven't been fully president mentally with my children... this gave me a lot of hope. thank you
I just stepped down out of a corporate position because I was sick of losing myself to corporate greed. I need to be happy and I deserve it. Love your videos ❤
Ever since I was a kid, I wanted a simple life. Unfortunately, life had other plans not worth mentioning here, for me.
I have now stopped, and taken charge of my life.
And I live as I please, and do what I love.
When you realize you don't NEED all the "stuff" you're told you have to have, you become free.
I don't need to work more hours, for more money, to buy things I don't want.
Your video is duly noted and appreciated.
I am 51 and after suffering a severe burnout in 2015 due to work pressure I started to see life and living differently. Since then and lock down and watching videos like this my eyes finally opened to what living actually is and should be.
Having the luxury to enjoy peace, quiet, having time to live a quality life and learn how to live a balanced life with your loved ones are so much more valuable than living a fast track life with luxuries or just barely surviving without really living it. I also studied, got my degree, had a lot of aspirations and then 2015 happened.
Still in the same job as I need to make provision for retirement, but I am saving more money for my old age and if all goes well I shall retire earlier. In the meantime I am reminding myself daily what is important in life.
We all have to make a living. If we can find alternative ways, especially early in your life, take a leap of faith and do yourselves a favour and go for it!
I love this comment! I'm sorry you've suffered burnout but it sounds like your taking mindful steps to look after yourself. Good for you 😊💚
Your message spoke to me deeply. I have been in corporate for 10 years and never enjoyed it since day 1. I've only ever lived according to the society's template ( completed high school top of my class, went to university, got a nice office job and married young) but now I feel trapped. I want to get a non demanding part-time job, not for the kids (don't have any yet) and not for the husband but for myself. I want to have some time to live my life but I am so scared of making that move. I am scared that I will no longer be relevant to the market and worse, I am terrified of lacking! But if I don't do it now, I fear that I will always regret
@@blackrosepages6886 Better to do it than spend the rest of your life wondering "what if". Go for it. 😊😊
Thanks for sharing. It’s a dream come true what your living. It’s so inspirational. Keep on the path of sharing your light.
Hi Molly! I think also working in Wildlife Conservation, the thing that blocks me the most from my ideal of not wanting to climb the ladder or eventually wanting to switch to part-time is the ideal of being completely dedicated to one's career and passion. I remember being an intern in biology labs and seeing researchers that did so many extra hours, thinking that was what I wanted, loving my job enough that I would want to do the same. So sometimes when I consciously make time for hobbies over work it's hard to shake the sense of guilt or feeling selfish.
This video is a really great reminder to just go after what is good for you :) Thanks!
Hi Anna! I so agree and the guilt can be difficult to shift, especially in this kind of career. I'm so glad you enjoyed this video and thank you for your comment 😊💚
Go for it.......it's wonderful and freeing to discover that we're not what we do, but what we already are......happiness and peace. Good luck and blessings.💗🙏
I have come to realize that having the awareness to make these decisions at a younger age can make the decision and the shift a bit easier.
In the US, many recent graduates are saddled with heavy student loan debt, and a job with hustle and high pay seems the only way to cope. Alas, it is also a bit of a trap. Because once you have a certain lifestyle, it can be very difficult to walk away -- especially if one has children, a mortgage, etc.
I am looking forward to exploring your channel more fully.
Its very true. Everyone's circumstances are different and I feel privileged that I am able to craft a lifestyle that really makes me happy 💚
Thank you, Molly for sharing your walk, scenery and gorgeous BC.
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed 😊💚
Beautifully presented and great wisdom!! Thank you so much!!
Thank you for your thoughts and sharing your journey. We often look for inspiration and fulfillment outside ourselves, yet discover, sometimes happenstance, inspiration and fulfillment within ourselves.
I’m so happy you’re following your heart and I wish you many blessings!!
Thank you! 😊💚
Fully agree with the message. I left the city some years ago. Loving it. Thanks for sharing! Rock the Mountain Japan.
Oh my god what amazing scenery you have wherever that is you are in Scotland. What a great video. Sometimes you have to go with your heart. Well done you. I am so envious of your home and surrounding scenery. Jonathan
I have been loving your videos, this one really hit home as I crave that slower life but have found myself climbing the corporate ladder with a very intense and stressful job. Still trying to work out to find this balance but this has given me inspiration 😊
Beautiful vlog Molly, thank you. It was only today that I was talking to someone about society expectations etc. I truly admire you for going the direction that has suited you so well and also for giving us this beautiful channel to see your great creative content 😘xx
Thank you so much lovely! Really glad you enjoyed 😊💚
Thank you for this. The music is perfect & correct volume. It is so lovely & soothing...much needed in this hustle buy culture. Grateful in Australia.
Lovely vlog Molly thank you for sharing your day with us.💚
Thank you! 😊💚
This video really resonated with my life rn, thank you!
There is another book about the Danish idea of a slow life. It's called Hygge. Scandinavians are the happiest people in the world. I can finally understand why. ☺️🙏
I am amazed and excited about how wise many of the generations behind mine have turned out. You've have brought a refreshing and thoughtful perspective to older generations. Grateful for it. Thank you.
I've been having a crisis because my business of ten years is failing and I am blowing my life savings before achieving my goal of a humble plot of land to homestead on...
Thanks for creating this, I appreciate the reminder and the affirmation that it is SO VALUABLE to own one's time and be free, rather than to be continuously overworking and be all pent up all the time.
Life can change in an instant. Live right now! True to yourself
The Navajo say our life purpose is ; joy , peace , happiness and confidence. They call it walking the path of beauty. I craved success and material things but the universe had other plans for me which I am grateful for as I am so much happier with less , with nature , with being alive and breathing , with making art. Everything unfolds when you bring intention through your heart and joy. For feeling like an imposter , there is a poem by Rumi, called Guest House. welcome your demons in with kindness and care , as they are not you and therefore don't define you.
What a beautiful and wise comment. Thank you :)
You are a beautiful soul. Someone you can really look up to. Lots of love!
Aw thank you lovely 😊💚
Love this and you make me feel so relaxed,Keep sharing!Thankyou so much
Thank you for sharing your journey, good luck with your aspirations for a simpler, more fulfilling way of life. Enjoyed the nature ramble you shared, beautiful countryside.
It's wonderful that you have the courage to arrange your life in this way at a young age. 💎 I'll be happy to follow your quiet life as you show on RUclips. I send you the power of greetings and positive energy from Poland 🌺🍀🌞
Beautiful and serene!
I know Loch An Eilein. What a beautiful hike around the loch. So happy to find this and be reminded of a very special trip to Scotland and time spent in the Highlands. Cheers!
I’m new here but the beauty of where you live would make me slow down🌲🌲🌲
Beautiful, so inspiring…. Thank you 🙏
This video and your thoughts resonated with me in so many levels! I also went through all this process in my life: I have a background in architecture, which I love, but always struggled trying to find the balance between my passions and life/mental health. The big difference is that I took "a bit" longer to be at comfortable place with myself living at a slower pace (almost fifteen years!), but I am happy that I feel whole and in the right direction today. Wow, sorry for the huge message, and thank you so much for inspiring me to think about it. Cheers from Canada 💛
Thank you for your lovely comment! I'm glad you are finding more balance in your life now 😊💚
This is such a lovely video, thank you for sharing part of your heart 🪞❤️
Love the video. Beautiful scenery. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for your comment 😊💚
You're living my dream life!!! Pls dont ever stop making videos!
Aw thank you! I don't intend to! 😊💚
Just discovered your channel and am already loving it .
Hi Molly 👋
What a lovely video. Such a wonderful place to live and work. I envy your confidence to live a more fulfilling life. Good luck and I'm very excited to hear your news soon 😊 xxx
Thanks so much Sam, I'm so glad you enjoyed 😊 💚
I would so love to slow down but it’s not easy. Im certain that we are supposed to live this way but actually doing it is so hard.
I loved this video, living a natural live inside the nature is my desire
I choose slow living too. I've been taking advantage of the warm weather here in Yorkshire, spending time lying in a hammock, watching the sky, enjoying how the clouds move and change. They are amazing! Thanks for your vlog.
Sounds lovely! 😊💚
Watching the sky and clouds was one of my fav past times as a child. Why do we drop the most simplest of pleasures in adulthood?
Love your video ! Absolutely lovely ! Thank you so much for sharing your Life and beautiful surroundings with us.❤
Best wishes with your fabulous new Life and well done for the decisions taken to slow Life down ! More videos, please ! Thank you 👍❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Aw thank you for your comment! I'm so glad you enjoyed and plenty more videos coming 😊💚
So beautiful park, fresh
Hello from country Australia! Some algorithm brought me here and I am delighted. My husband and I visited Scotland in October 2019, and we were mostly in Glasgow, the Inverness area and St. Andrew's. Oh, we could have stayed for months! I love to walk and hike and where we are, in a country town, nestled between hills and some mountains, I enjoy a lot of gorgeous nature. But your walk topped it all. I enjoyed hearing a little about your approach to life and although I could not find that exact book in our library system, I borrowed a similar one by Lola Akerstrom. I applaud you for your choices and your happiness is evident - looking forward to more.
Aw I'm so glad you found me! Not been to St Andrews but its on my list . Glad you enjoyed the video 😊💚
I so resonate with this, I saw this at the correct time! I’m a postdoc in marine biology and got offered two permanent researcher jobs and one consulting job (I know - a privilege). I have gotten a taste of the researcher lifestyle the last year and I honestly miss field and bench work and did not enjoy all the project management, grant writing and decisions you need to make all the time as a researcher. I ended up taking the consultancy job. But I’m scared and was like your friend very flattered and tempted by the other really great options.
Must note that I’m badly burned out and have been in several sick leaves while making my decision..
Aw that's a tricky decision! But I'm pleased that you had chosen what is right for you. Look after yourself 💚
Thanks for this video 🥰🙏
Thank you for a truly authentic and honest video. I am a new subscriber, and agree with your philosophy and ethos. Am just returning to work after being away for 5 months due to a workplace injury. Have been thinking about my present time and future, and what brings me the greatest joy and calmness. And that I really want to be in the moment, one moment at a time. The very opposite of being 'busy' and 'multitasking'. I will be practising this in my workplace, and more importantly, in the rest of my life, too. Looking forward to watching more of your videos. Have a truly delightful and fabulous day!
Thank you so much for your comment! 😊💚
Refreshing to see a young person who sees greater beauty in nature than any big city~
Your videos are so beautiful. And I truly look forward to reading your newsletter every Monday 😊 your book recommendations are always 👌
Hello Molly, I love the calmness of your videos. I have the Lagom book too, it is great!
Thank you! It is a wonderful book 😊💚
♥️ To spend every day with that sweet dog on that beautiful lake.... excellent career choice!
This video is delightful and encouraging, Molly ✨ As a fellow creative so much of what you shared resonated. There is beauty in simplicity and living in ones purpose. 💛
Thank you lovely 😊💚
This is such a beautiful video thank you! :)
I admire your choices...Cheers from Victoria, British Columbia
thank you ❤you reminded me my way
Totally relate to the going part time and feeling like you have failed
Hello hello! So lovely to find your channel. I resonate with what you're saying with the creative work. Excited to explore more of your videos xx
So happy to have you here 😊💚
Just discovered you today and binge watched a few episodes. Love your energy and passion. Very much agree with your ethos here. I want to start a channel sharing my journey doing the same.Moved to the bush in Kenya four years ago. Slowing down was the best decision I ever made.
I'm glad you found me 😊😊
Beautiful scenery Lovely Music UK
Beautiful place...
Wow - what stunning surroundings - peace emanates from your vlog, and your loving border collie is the star 🐾🦋
She really is! 💚
Just discovered your channel. Beautifully filmed video and such great advice. Just started embracing Slow Living and already feeling the benefits. Subscribed to your channel and can’t wait to see more of your videos. Have a lovely day 🏴
Absolutely beautiful place to live.
Lovely countryside. Nature walks are the best. Good luck to you in your new venture.
Thank you! 😊💚
First video watched! Subbed! Your dog! Looks so much like one (only my pup has bent ears). I agree about working - I don’t want or need a lot of money, trading life for dollars. I work 22 hours at a library and soon a few more for a non-profit. That’s plenty for my lifestyle.
Just found your RUclips channel, so glad I did ... All my life I have been very driven and never allowed myself time to rest and " just be". I remember my Doctor telling me if I did not slow down I was going to have an accident or burnout. I had both and life as I knew it changed and I was no longer able to run my own business and work 100 hrs a week whilst being a single Mum. I was just starting to feel I was beating the ME/Chronic fatigue when my beautiful boy, my only son Rhys was suddenly killed 2 years ago and through this trauma I have realised what really matters in life and what makes my soul sing which it is starting to again. I need to feel more connected to nature and have simplified my life so much.
It feels good.
I respect and admire you for realising this years before I did and living life from the heart.
Rhys's motto was " just do it" so now I do whether that is swimming in a very fresh pool in Pembrokeshire or sitting outside late at night stargazing... we all need to create happy memories and just be in the moment.
Thankyou for your lovely video and your merchandise is beautiful, I shall be buying a top.
Love and sparkles 💗 ✨
Oh Belle, I cannot express how sorry I am for your loss. I'm honoured that my video gave you a moment of peace. I wish you all the best and thank you so much for your support 💚💚💚
