My question is if everybody is running around doing what they
My question is if everybody is running around doing what they
I've never victimized myself. I worked hard to achieve the life and career I have. Your patronizing of other hard working folks is disgusting. Your self serving, sanctimonious, are a testament to your lack of character and ego run riot.
I agree. Workin ain't living. We have all this technology now, and still work 5 days a week. We are like bees, who just mindlessly produce. But what are we producing? Whatever the market demands. Supposedly. It is a hive mind. We are lead around by the desires of other people.
Time is all there is. Time is growth. Time is change. And time is money.
The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, he said:
We have great propensity technologically to make these jobs easier and less cringeworthy to do anyway. Scraping up a dead rac**** wouldn't be nearly as bad if you have a little robotic thing you control like an RC car to do it for you. Coming up with something like this is definitely something some people would enjoy.
And Joe is completely right. Work is meaningless unless it follows introspection and creativity. You have to do things that mean something to you. He's not saying this expecting the world to all start living in trees and painting pictures. He's telling the people who like him and are open-minded anyway, that there is a happier way to live than slinging insurance or shoveling mud all day.
But yes, insects. Whine about the evil weed grass like a fool because you know he's doing it right.
And like Joe said, again, they are in the wrong fields and need to find out where and how they can contribute.
I was using those instances as examples of craft.
Could be replaced with carpentry, metal smithing, etc.
You think Joe just got up at age 20 and decided he wanted to be a comedian? I bet he was working on his craft since he was 15. I started when I was 12. When did you start practicing to become whatever it is that you're doing now?
Chances are you've only been doing it for 2-3 years, and it's not even what you went to school for. This is the majority we're talking about here. Goldfish population.
So what happens if 'craft' you've been practicing since 12 goes to shit, steadily or rapidly, due to technological changes, or simply changes on market?
One starts something entirely different likely. Starting all over again.
You mean no offense but call me a moron? Lmao ok. I'm not trying to armchair analyze you, but your every post is reeking of an aching lonliness. It's honestly sad to see something like this. I can read through the lines and see the isolation, and it's breaking my heart. I don't know what Rogan's "ilk" is, and I don't know how you would assume from my brief post that I have a shitty life. It was more of a joke than anything: Rogan made his name as a stand-up comedian, and in my opinion he's not funny at all. Which is why I said he's lucky.
In reality, I know that it's not blind luck that got him where he's at, I'm sure he had to kiss a lot of ass and do a lot of things he didn't want to do...like a lot of us take jobs we're not passionate about, but with hard work, determination, and a little luck, we can get where we want to be.
You on the other hand are a sad individual who hurls insults at strangers, and boasts about success on the internet. It isn't bad luck that got you in your real life situation either, so try to adopt a positive attitude, pursue life goals with the same zest you troll forum threads, and hopefully things will look up for you like I said before. Good luck to you.
I love how people think Joe is smart. He has not said anything that hasn't been sad over and over again. He regurgitates old philosophy and people think he is some genius of original thought.
Get off your computer.
Money is a social construct designed to make you bust your ass all day just to obtain it.
