447 - Barking Up the Wrong Tree: Why We Often Confuse Standard of Living With Quality of Life

We humans are on a non-stop journey for a higher standard of living. For many, it’s not as much a journey as it is an obsession. What if we’re barking up the wrong tree? What if, instead of pursuing a higher standard of living, what we’re really seeking is a better quality of life? These aren’t the same, and the moment we recognize the difference, we can truly improve our lives in tangible ways. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton shares his middle-of-the-night wonderings about this topic, framed through the lens of Cole’s recent house purchase.
