The title of this blog says it all, we’re entrenched in a system. It’s all rinse and repeat, every single day with a mix of doing things for fun. The system doesn’t cater to us, but to those who run and control the show (which is a totally different subject for another time).
We’re manipulated, controlled, told what to be, how to be and in the midst of all of this, we’re surviving. We’re not necessarily living and thriving the way we should. We’re told to work for corporations for 40 years and by the end of it, enjoy whatever is left of your mind, body and soul.
By the time we get to that point, our bodies have been through the trenches, we have nothing left in the gas tank and chances are, we’ve developed some health issue that we have to live and deal with on a daily basis. We’re told to push our dreams away, don’t do what you love but cater to the system that drains us mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Can we change it? We can, but it has to be to our advantage. If you’re a corporate person who cares to climb the ladder, beautiful, great. This blog isn’t for you. This blog is for those who want to manipulate the system to their advantage and utilize it to go after what they want and live a fulfilling, prosperous life.
We’re all losing ourselves slowly and progressively. I’ve watched people give up on their business they started because the system sucked them in and entrenched them in the corporate world, paying taxes and being stressed. Don’t get me wrong, corporate jobs are the safe bet, it guarantees you a paycheck to contribute back to the system (paying bills, getting food and other expenses).
We’ve lost ourselves in the consumer, capitalist system that warps our minds. It’s okay to work in the corporate world, but utilize it to get yourself to where you want to be in life. Have the goals, the checklist, the timeframe for when you want to achieve those goals. Don’t stop because life handed you some experiences and hurdles you had to jump.
Don’t give into what they’ve programmed you to be. As they say, work smarter, not harder. It’s time we push towards doing what we love and not doing things and tolerating it. Break from the system and live, not die mentally and spiritually and physically be in existence.
That’s my blog for today, thanks for reading, be good and go accomplish your goals…
