The issue with jobs

In today’s world most people have a job and think that anyone else should have one too and even more than that, the whole purpose of some is to get one and the fake feeling of security that comes with it. Going to college, being obedient, finding a good job, getting a family and having a life of regret is the golden standard for the Western Civilization.

All that is sad because the majority don’t want to live like that but are influenced by their family, friends, politicians into thinking that this is the way to go if you wish to be respected in our society. But I say fuck that, why would you even care about being respected by anyone, how does that change your life? But maybe the biggest reason why I don’t like jobs is that we, as humans are meant for greatness, we are not intended to do labor work but to revolutionize the world, to live.

If you have a job and you’re genuinely happy with that, and you go to work full of energy and excitement with a huge smile on your face then it’s all good. But most people hate their work; it’s said that only 13% of people like their job but I firmly believe that the percentage is even lower than that.

Dependence

The main problem with such a life is that many people are one paycheck away from being homeless because they have massive debts and if they lose their job, which happens often, they won’t be able to pay the debt so the bank will come and take their house away.

I don’t even get why so many Americans are even considering buying stuff on credit. Credit shouldn’t be an option for you if you’re buying houses, cars, and electronics with it because then you’re fucked since those are passives, things that are not making you any new money.

Yes, if you’re an investor, a businessperson and want to get some credit to buy actives, start a business, things that will pay you each month, then it might be ok as long as you know what you’re doing. Banks are just some big Ponzi schemes that will fuck up your life, stay away from them as much as possible.

This is how the last economic crisis happened; people kept on buying real estate with borrowed money with little to no down payment even if they didn’t afford it. When more and more of them weren’t able to pay their debt, the banks started to go underwater, and the Government bailed them out with the tax payer’s fucking money.

Don’t own, rent.

The Problem

Many people are complaining that they can’t get a job even if they have a degree but that’s bullshit. The degree doesn’t mean anything; if you paid for a stupid education and a worthless piece of paper, it doesn’t mean that you’re entitled to work in that field. There are many jobs, McDonald’s is hiring all the time, but people don’t want to work there because they have a degree and feel superior.

Also, many people are complaining about the small wages, but if you’re working in a saturated market, that’s all you are going to get. Anyone can serve food, even a monkey, it’s nothing special, so of course that they pay minimum wage, if you are complaining, they can replace you overnight, your position is not scarce.

If in fact, you desire to get a job, you have to focus on something scarce, and in demand that you also like to do, there’s where the big paychecks are made, but it’s still not perfect. You’re still an employee with a shitty lifestyle, if you want the freedom, look for alternatives and opportunities.

As I said in another post and Grant Cardone said before me, it’s your economy, not the economy. The government isn't going to provide for you; you have to take what you want when you want. Way too many people rely on others to live day by day, but that’s far from healthy, but as long as they are comfortable, they don’t care, take the control back. The Blockchain tech and Steem are this decade’s most significant opportunities; you have to take full advantage of them and change your life.

Conclusion

I have no idea what our purpose in this world is but if I know, one thing for sure is that no one’s meant to serve food for the money. People’s potential is so tremendous; anyone can change their lives and do something that provides value both to themselves and the world.

If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I’m about to do today. And whenever the answer has been, “no” for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something. – Steve Jobs

If you’re thinking about surrendering for something smaller than you deserve, if you’re thinking about getting a job because it’s “safe” instead of pursuing your vision and desires read that quote again, and again, watch the following clip until it’s stamped into your brain.

You will probably not be able to get the life you truly desire through a job; they are meant to keep the people just above the line of poverty but not to set them truly free and let them reach their potential.

Not every human will have the chance to read this post and get an “aha” moment, but because you’re reading this right now, you have no excuses for not grabbing life by the balls.
