I wish there was a way of saying this that wasn't so cliche, but live life to the fullest; stop and smell the roses.
Enjoy your landscaping job. One day when you have deadlines and projects and maybe direct reports, you'll yearn for the days of manual labor that requires minimal mental effort.
Enjoy school, despite being poor. School can be fun. One day you'll have enough money to buy all the video games, but no time to play them.
I need to stop and enjoy life a little more. I too often am looking ahead and trying to make everything better and improve my life. Things are alright already.
I think the key to life (and happiness) is to be selfless, and that is hard to do. Good luck.
