In the absence of finding the “perfect” country, Americans are tolerating one of the worst countries. People are always reaching out to tell me they “would” move out of the United States if only some set of impossible criteria were met. Those people want the accolades for being willing to consider making a big exciting change, without actually doing a damn thing. Let me just save you some time. No country is perfect. But, that doesn’t mean there aren’t a lot of safer, healthier, happier, more progressive countries out there that would be wonderful new homes. Stop letting your current circumstances be held to no standard and your potential new home be held to impossible standards. Every country I talk about on my channel is a clear upgrade from living in America. Leaving America is the only logical option. 🆘🇺🇸 #creatorsearchinsights

Here's something that people never talk about when it comes to leaving America. And that is that those people that are on the fence about leaving are on the fence because they are putting the new destination on some sort of pedestal and holding it to a higher standard than where they currently live. As people are doing their research and falling down every rabbit hole, they are thinking that they are going to move to some place that is the epitome of perfect. And anyone who has moved abroad will tell you that the new place that you go is not going to be perfect. It can be better, but nowhere is perfect. Because if there was a perfect place, everybody would move there. There's going to be places that are more suited to you. There's going to be places where you have a better standard of living. There's going to be places that are easier to get to. There's going to be places with better weather. There's all these different factors that go into picking the new place. One thing I see a lot is that people want to hold the new place to this high standard and have these huge expectations, whereas they're willing to settle with where they currently live as the alternative. And where they currently live doesn't meet any of the qualifications that they're setting for the new place. It's absolutely not safe for your children to go to school there. The environment is going to shit. The cost of living is terrible. The racism is on the rise. All of the things that you would not want in the new country, you're just settling with in the place that you're currently at because you're unwilling to make a move. You're unwilling to take action. So I find that to be a weird, double standard that you have all these requirements for the new place, but none of the requirements are filled by the place that you currently live. And yet, you settle with that, you deal with that, you manage there, I wish more people who were thinking about moving abroad would get out of law, law, land and start thinking more practically and saying, listen, this is a huge upgrade from where we currently are and we can be happy about that huge upgrade as opposed to pretending like the starting point doesn't matter that the terrible situation that they're in is survivable, but this much better situation is not good enough. It's definitely good enough. It's definitely better than the current situation in the United States and leaving America shouldn't be the last ditch effort as the world is crumbling. It should be something that you do because you realize it's already on the decline and there are much better places out there. The reason that I know that there are much better places out there is because five years ago, I made the decision to leave America and we have now lived on three continents and all of the places that we have lived have been better than the United States. They've been safer, they've been more comfortable, they've been cleaner, calmer, happier in general. Nearly all of the places that you can choose are going to be better than your current situation that you're not taking into account your current situation, you're putting too many expectations on the new place instead of expecting that new place to be perfect, just know that it's going to be better.

If picking a new country was as easy as comparing crime statistics and educational outcomes, than obviously that country would be overrun with expats. The best countries to move to are not one size fits all. Before you get your hopes up about any particular country, I suggest you take a step back. Determine your visa eligibility first. Some countries are trying to attract retirees. Other countries are welcoming digital nomads. And there are countries only looking for wealthy expats. Your income type and amount will determine what countries will take you. Schedule your exit plan call if you’re ready to stop daydreaming and start packing. #creatorsearchinsights

The life you've built in America isn't the life you wanted. It's the life you could scrape together under constraints of: wages that don't cover basics, healthcare tied to employment, housing costs consuming half your income, constant financial stress, survival mode as default state. You didn't choose misery. You chose best option available within impossible constraints. But those constraints are geographic. Change geography, change constraints, change what's possible. The apartment you can barely afford in America becomes the nice place with breathing room abroad. The paycheck that barely covers survival in America becomes the income that allows saving abroad. The constant stress about one emergency destroying you financially becomes manageable situation where emergencies are expensive but not catastrophic. Same income. Same skills. Same person. Different location. Completely different life. You're not stuck because you lack resources. You're stuck because resources you have don't work in location you're in. Move those resources to location where they work better, and you're not stuck anymore. But moving requires: tolerating uncertainty about how things will work out, being uncomfortable while figuring out new systems, releasing familiar patterns even when familiar is miserable, trusting you can build better life from scratch. Most people choose familiar misery over unfamiliar uncertainty. Devil you know feels safer than devil you don't, even when devil you know is grinding you down. This is why people stay in: jobs they hate, relationships that don't work, locations that don't serve them, lives that feel like slow suffocation. Because at least they know how to survive current misery. Unknown is terrifying even when unknown might be better. But what if you're not choosing between misery and uncertainty? What if you're choosing between: familiar misery that will continue indefinitely, or temporary uncertainty that leads to actually building life you want? When you're in survival mode, you're making choices based on: what's cheapest, what's fastest, what gets you through next month, what keeps crisis at bay. Not what you actually want. What you can manage given constraints. Those choices compound into life that doesn't reflect your preferences. Reflects what you could piece together while drowning. But when you move somewhere your income works better, you're not in survival mode anymore. You have breathing room to choose based on: what you actually want, what serves your family, what creates life you're proud of. That's not small difference. That's the difference between life you're enduring and life you're choosing. Living in America isn't default you're stuck with. It's choice you're making every day by not choosing differently. And choosing differently is available to you. Link in bio for people ready to choose. What would you choose if survival wasn't consuming all your energy? 🆘🇺🇸
