This goal is pretty common.
I have definitely had this goal, or a derivation of it, at some points in my life.
Thinking that if I attained this goal, life would be just great.
Only to find that attaining this goal is actually a little hollow.
Not actually that much fun.
And some research would even suggest it will take us to an early grave.
And no, we are not talking about getting “high” off alcohol or drugs, which most of us realise is followed by a whopping headache and hang-over, or in the case of drugs, a downer for a handful of days after (or so I have read ;-)).
The goal I am talking about…
Are you ready for it?
Is…
The Goal of getting to the place where you don’t have to DO anything.
Free of commitments and responsibilities.
And the piece I want to focus on today is – more specifically – freedom from “having to work”.
You have also likely seen a bunch of conversations online where some younger folk are all for an unconditional basic income (UBI), which is not based on work status.
Where you could still be paid to do nothing.
Sounds great.
But actually, it’s not.
And thus starts today’s conversation.
