“A slave is one who waits for someone to come and free him.” -Ezra Pound

It’s quite obvious that things are bad. We complain, we spread the news to wake people up, but in the end, are we still expecting others to do something about the problems?

If there is anything to learn from this economic and constitutional crisis, it is that we can’t rely on other people, esp. the government. Family and friends are great, and we should help them. We should help anybody in need, but we can’t expect to rely on others. We must learn to rely on ourselves, and of course God, if we are believers.

Freedom or Security?

I am a fiercely biased against, even contemptuous of  jobs and job security. Employment is nothing more than paid slavery. I know, it’s easy to say that because I don’t have a family. The more dependents you have the more tempting it is to seek security, but really, how secure is the job market? And! If you lost your job today, how soon would you be out of funds? Most people live pay check to pay check. With the massive increase in inflation, fees, and taxes, just wait and see how well your paycheck will cover the increasing costs.

Wouldn’t it be better to learn a skill that will always be needed and will give you complete freedom: both financial freedom and time freedom?

Too many people are operating on an entitlement mindset. These are the slaves of our time. Free people do not wait and do not rely on others. Temporary help is one thing, but endless years is another thing. Instead, free people take charge of their lives. They see obstacles and challenges in life as opportunities to grow and overcome, not as excuses to do nothing.

This is why I’m doing what I’m doing as an Internet Marketer. I want the financial freedom and time freedom to see the world, and my family and friends whenever I want. I don’t want to be standing in line for government handouts. I don’t want to ask for permission to go on vacation, to be sick, or take a call from home.

What I’m doing may not be right for you. That’s OK, I can only work with so many people anyway, but we all need to find a way take back our lives. We need the financial education to protect ourselves  in the coming years from the major wealth transfer. We must make sure we’re part of the minority who will receive some of the wealth instead of the masses who will loose it.

Learn How To Learn

“Learning is not compulsory. . . neither is survival.” -Dr. W. Edwards Deming

The mainstream media will not tell you what to do. They’ve been wrong for decades. Instead take charge of your life. Protect yourself, better yet, learn how to learn.

That’s what an education is all about. It’s about learning to learn instead of merely gaining some skill or trade and being stuck. That’s the training of a slave. Even doctors, lawyers, and engineers with that mindset are slaves, slaves to their employment, practice, and careers.

Instead learn to overcome and be free.
