It sucked, but resistance is good for us. I have a completely new view of myself after following through so hard during that period, even when it felt awful. I'd do it all again in a heartbeat.

If that hadn't happened and we had hit 100k in 2021, I'd be in a much worse place. Mentally weaker, probably would've wasted money on real estate, and no period of hardship to look back on and use for strength.
