Lately, I've realized how important it is to work not just for money. I'm wondering, what else could it be?

I do it mainly because it's something I can do at home or anywhere I want to and at any time I want, without real deadlines and absolutely independently with only dealing with 1 person through text messages and the current one is super nice. Sometimes it's also fun to do and I see progress in compare to 4-5 years ago.
