I didn&#8217;t want for anything, never had to worry about much, and had the greatest parents on earth (still do!).<\/p>\n<p>With that comfort, though, my parents made sure we knew what hard work meant, what a dollar is really worth (thank the Good Lord).<\/p>\n<p>So I refereed hockey and babysat in my early teens. Then, when I was legally old enough (15), I got my first job at Little Caesars Pizza. One job turned into three pretty quickly as my need for skateboard gear increased, and so my bank roll had to follow suit.<\/p>\n<p>I worked hard to be able to pay for things I wanted. And damn I became a busy dude&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m in high school, working three jobs, playing hockey, snowboarding, and skateboarding every spare second I could.<\/p>\n<p>And since I was always out of the house, I ate take-out probably 80% of the time (a good portion of that would have been my Little Caesars hookup&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Which I still miss because I&#8217;m a pizza FIEND \ud83c\udf55\ud83d\ude0d).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Needless to say, I never had much left over in the bank account.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hang with me, I&#8217;m getting to the point&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>We used to consistently hit up this one restaurant in Winnipeg. It was a good mix: decent priced food, beers available for the older guys in the crew, and never a shortage of some pretty ladies around.\u00a0\ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n<p>And I distinctly remember, for quite some time, having to order the cheapest thing on the menu (although this place has the best ribs in the city)&#8230; with a glass of water (with lemon if I felt fancy), <em>and PRAY \ud83d\ude4f\u00a0I had enough in my bank account to cover it!<\/em> Eke! \ud83d\ude48<\/p>\n<p>This is all before you could check your balance within two seconds on your phone.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, it was a stressful Mental Math Olympics trying to calculate the cost of those skate shoes I just bought and figure out if I had enough. I went for it anyways (I can do dishes with the best of &#8217;em) and 99% of the time pulled it off with a few cents to spare (bubblegum anyone? I&#8217;m buying!).<\/p>\n<p>Now, here&#8217;s the thing:<\/p>\n<h2>What Success Looks Like To A Teenager<\/h2>\n<p>Sitting at that very restaurant, looking through the menu, I repeatedly found myself dreaming:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3>&#8220;I&#8217;d have MADE IT in life if I could buy the ribs and not have to worry about the money.&#8221;<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Yes, pizza&#8217;s my death row meal, but <em>with a side of ribs<\/em>. Fall off the bone, juicy, bbq ribs are my #2 favourite food ever.<\/p>\n<p>If only I could afford ribs anytime, I thought, that would be SUCCESS.<\/p>\n<p>And I thought this for <em>years<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Well, thanks to a sh*t-ton of hard work, I can now afford the ribs. \ud83e\udd24<br \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1303 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Rib-5.jpeg\" alt=\"Rib Money\" width=\"720\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Rib-5.jpeg 720w, https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Rib-5-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Rib-5-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Rib-5-180x180.jpeg 180w, https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Rib-5-600x600.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>But here&#8217;s the thing&#8230;<\/p>\n<h2>Watch Yourself Or You&#8217;ll Adapt<\/h2>\n<p>Have you ever heard of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/blog\/the-science-success\/201208\/how-keep-happiness-fading\">Hedonic Adaptation<\/a>? It&#8217;s a psychological phenomenon that, basically, says we adapt to our new happiness, thus returning to our old level of happiness.<\/p>\n<p>For example: you shed a few pounds and now fit your goal clothing size 8. Soon enough, you find yourself thinking that you&#8217;d like to fit a size 6 instead and are no longer happy with your new body.<\/p>\n<p>Or: you turn into a bit of a coffee snob and now can&#8217;t enjoy a hot cup at the local diner.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3>\u201cOne of the enemies of happiness is adaptation.\u201d\u00a0-Dr. Gilovich<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>It can be a total killjoy in all sorts of ways: from the things you buy, to the food you eat; from things you experience to how much money you make.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Introducing: Rib Money<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>I used to think I would be ON TOP OF THE WORLD if I could afford the ribs when I wanted. Pretty much\u00a0<em>exactly\u00a0<\/em>like this:<br \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1293 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/giphy-downsized-large.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" \/><br \/>But now that I can afford a rack, it can become easy to think that what I have is not enough&#8230; to adapt to my Rib Money level of success and think,<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What&#8217;s next?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But since happiness is the goal, this concerns me. Like Dr. Gilovich stated above, adaption is an enemy of happiness.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So I&#8217;ve put a lot of thought into this and &#8220;coined&#8221; \ud83d\ude1c\u00a0 it\u00a0<em>Rib Money.<\/em> <\/strong><br \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1305\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Rib-designs-2-sm.jpeg\" alt=\"Rib Money\" width=\"1436\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Rib-designs-2-sm.jpeg 720w, https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Rib-designs-2-sm-300x150.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1436px) 100vw, 1436px\" \/>Again, now that I have Rib Money, it&#8217;s far too easy to adapt and strive to level up. But with that more, more, more attitude I&#8217;d forever be chasing the dollar, eventually aiming for F*ck You Money (ie. you&#8217;re so rich you can tell <em>anyone<\/em> to f*ck off).<\/p>\n<p>No, it&#8217;s ALL about being happy with Rib Money, no matter how far I progress financially. If I was so certain in my mid-teens about Rib Money being complete success, why shouldn&#8217;t I forever be happy with it?<\/p>\n<p>While maintaining healthy ambition, I need to fight Hedonic Adaption. \ud83d\udc4a<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3>&#8220;It&#8217;s not about F*ck You Money.
