The Path of Self-Discovery: Navigating Life's Complexities

Part 16 : Freeing Your Mind from the Chains of the System

Morpheus said once, "Most people's minds are not ready to be free. Most people are so dependent on the system that they will fight to defend it. Their minds are not ready to be free." This means that many people are satisfied and comfortable operating normally, within the constraints and limitations of charitable systems. Many people are averse to the idea of a challenge to their constraints. To be prepared to break free from the constraints of society, a person must have a mental preparedness of willingness to break free from the pattern established by the collective mind. Many people may be afraid to disrupt routine and to question the status quo. Many people's identities are tied to their identities in their roles and positions. Breaking from the ordinary, and compelled to challenge the status quo, requires a greater level of mental preparedness and engagement with issues. For individuals to really be free, they have to be willing to acknowledge and particularly consider the truth of their reality and the potential of another reality. They will free themselves from the barriers that inhibit them from living their life. Those were the words that really struck me when I was walking to college with some buddies one day and I noticed an expensive car drive by.

I thought everything I was taught and reading about how to get on the right track toward success was incorrect.

I was angered by the thought that an individual could have millions of dollars for some car while I was walking on foot to college. One of my friends thought they were just rich, but I thought they must have something to work with that he knew I did not. The experience stuck with me for weeks and angered me every time I noticed someone with real money.

The traditional way of working hard and being a law-abiding citizen in exchange for a good lifestyle has simply become outdated. Just because you work hard and consider yourself to be a regular person doesn't mean you are wealthier or successful, a nd people must come along when time changes.

Taxes are a major obstacle for many people, and is the primary reason why many people can not achieve financial stability. Taxes take away from you and your ability to earn and build wealth, even if you are hard-working or a law-abiding citizen.

Additionally, traditional methods of profiting that were once advantageous, may not be practical or helpful anymore. The economy is prone to flexibility and changes can happen. What may have been beneficial or useful in the past may not be applicable at this moment in time. There are opportunities that may be attainable with a shift in mind set, and as citizens, we should all be able to think around corners, leading to opportunities to profit and develop towards financial success.

Nowadays, it is important to be proactive and adaptive. People must be able to think for themselves and think laterally in order to achieve financial stability and success. For that reason, I knew there had to be some other way. However, I was aware that working for money had become a paradigm that was no longer valid. For example, when you decide to buy a coffee, don't just go to the store, buy a coffee and sit down. People should analyze how they decide on a store. Was it through the store's advertising, were there empty tables, or was there a line? How much was the coffee? How much was the specific process or profit margin? As you do this, you discover how important signage is, the importance of having an empty table, how to wait a line, how to speak to people, and keep them satisfied.

In order to obtain success, it is important for me to free my mind from the shackles of the system. People are so brainwashed as a system of democracies and their lack of knowledge or experience based on the system, that they will continue to fight for it.
