My Way to My Aim. Starts here.

It seems to me that we were screwed over.

I grew up the obedient daughter of my parents. I studied well and respect the elders, still believe that lies are the last case ever, and I believe in real friendship.

I finished well at school, successfully studied at the university and from the very beginning I moved up the career ladder. And now I am the head of a large team and by the standards of my region my salary is above the average.

I consider myself a worthy citizen of my country. I regularly pay taxes, do not engage in criminal activities and I even will not throw on the street a piece of paper.

Just like my parents. Also the same exemplary citizens of their country.

I look where they are now. My parents, who have worked honestly all their lives, worked for the benefit of their country and society as a whole.

Now they are on retire, that is, they ran out their physiological working resource, but they steel forced to continue to look for funds, because since the time of the "free" Soviet Union, everything has become worth the money, and the minimum pension (the last increase was July 1, 2018) 1,700 hryvnia = $ 65 = 43 STEEM.

Perhaps, I would not grow wary, if the repetition of the script was not so obvious. This is the same circle in the rat race, house - work - house - work - coffin (if not lucky) - house - coffin (if lucky).

Slavery of the 21st century.

I walk every day past a beautiful, but very littered field and pick up trash along the road, but I go back and see two new trash heaps. I have a desire, energy and vision, how to change the situation for the better for everyone, but I do not have time. Because I'm earning a living.

I have friends who travel all over the world and invite me with them every time, but I can not leave everything and go to discoveries, because I need to earn a living.

I have the formulation of environmental blockchain projects, but I can not devote time to learning the technology, because I do not have free time - it is 80% engaged in earning a living.

So where I'm going, every day striding to work? Is it not the same life as my parents are now?

Yes, they are happy with their children and grandchildren, and, they do know, as I know, that happiness is not in money.

Happiness is really not in the money. In money, the equivalent of survival is now expressed, not happiness. And only if you have more money, than you need to survive, they become an opportunity.

And here's the dissonance.

We are surrounded by information on spirituality, on the need to develop ourselves and help others, and at the same time all the conditions are created for the individual to have neither the time nor the energy to get inclusive development, reflect and participate in charity. We can choose either one or the other. Or study everything a little bit, analyze information and provide assistance to those in need, or earning a living.

For all its "success," I feel like a man who understands that his legs carry him in the wrong direction along the way, and he desperately turns his neck back, and with all his muscles tries to stop "running wrong".

But keeps, keeps the urgency of making money. Do not think me greedy, I'm not talking about the millions (although I'm waiting for them, of course, with my door open)), but the basic income that will allow me to provide a healthy diet to my daughter, education for her, communication and other smaller expenses.

Now I manage to pay all this, but the price of this - is most of the time of my life. It feels like I was born to pay off my existence.

But I'm sure that was not born for this. Not for making a particular company successful most of the time of my life, not for seeing the computer monitor more often than the face of my own child, and not for spending the best resources of my personality on someone else's or my own financial profit.

I want to use the possibilities of the human mind not in a narrow direction, but in all directions that are interesting for me, so that at the intersection of sciences come to discoveries.

I want to communicate with my family about everything in the world, and not about the most urgent, because "I ran for a while."

I want to personally participate in the development and education of my children.

I want to communicate with Nature, to develop and participate in environmental projects.

I want to be able to learn anything when I'm interested, and not when I have time.

I see this opportunity in creating my Family Estate.

Living with my family, on our land, surrounded by Nature - it's not just a dream. This is a weighted goal.

To live a large family is cheaper than living separately from everyone. Cheaper for food, for energy resources and, most importantly, for communication.

Living a large family - it is support in all life situations: from domestic duties to life's difficulties.

To live with our parents means to pass on their wisdom to our children the way we heard it in our childhood.

To live together - it is to be together for holidays and to support one another in sickness.

And in itself life on the ground - it is the energy of creation and the space for the opportunity to realize this energy.

In addition to all of the above, the Family Estate can be a self-sufficient organization, in the form of an official family business for the production of goods / services, or it can be full of various hobbies of all members of the family.

Such a way of life will free my mind and untie my hands.

When I know that my children are taught by my parents that they are breathing clean air and their food is grown by our hands - I can safely stand up for the protection of the environment with all the resources of my personality.

If I know that I have a mining farm at home or a crypto project, or there is a family enterprise, the income from which is enough to pay for what we can not grow ourselves (matches, salt, etc.) and for the Internet)), then my mind is free from other people's tasks and other people's goals and I can explore the space of possibilities, as it were outer space.

Such an existence is inexpensive in itself, but it is impossible to create this without having anything but job.

The lack of this possibility led me to the idea of ​​creating a crowdfunding project. But this is a topic for another post.

And this post is my philosophy, set forth here for better explanation of my goal and for inspiring you with my dream.

Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.

I think that one of the right ways to the excellence is to do every step better than before. Thank you for stopping by))
