We Are Dying Everyday to Make Money - Life Lessons From Nature

Do what you want, with whom you want, with any time you want.

By vignesh kumarPublished 4 years ago 3 min read

Wake up, find food, eat, nap, play, fuck, relax, sleep, and repeat. There is no clock, and no one is keeping score, so relax and take it slow. Except for us, this is the life of all creatures in nature.

Independence means having control over your time; you do what you want, with whom you want, with any time you want, and as many times as you want.

You will find true happiness in a life full of independence.

Nature Provides Independence:

Nature's creatures have their time under their control.

They don't waste time dwelling on the past or fearing the future. They are only concerned with the present, minding their own business and their own needs.

This is not a selfish act. Selfishness is keeping all to yourself. No creature keeps a wardrobe of possessions other than us.

They do what they feel to do with no one to rely on. it is nature's way of saying "look after yourself". When you rely on someone it's a burden, you can't do what you want to do.

Many creatures live in social families. They find food together, hunt together, play together, sleep together and protect each other. They do everything together, No one person works hard, while the rest of the family eats. They all play an equal share.

Looking for food is the only major task of the day, and when your environment is rich in resources, you don't have to worry about that either; it's like a mountain of grass in front of sheep's eyes, with food everywhere you look.

Other times you play, cuddle, fuck, sleep and you do what you feel to do with whom you want, with many times you want. From birth to death you will be with your friends all day long. It s the real meaning of friends for life.

We would also be independent if we followed nature, but instead

We Take it Away:

We don't have our time under our control

We wake when we don't want, to do things we don't want to do, with people we don't want to.

All of our lives are filled with don't want tos. Because we need to earn, we need to save, we need to pay, we need to buy, we need to compete.

In the process, you lose yourself, you lose who you are because you can't do what you want to do, you need to act, hide, and behave like someone to get a raise, to get the perks of a rich lifestyle.

We require grades, marks, and scores to have the best opportunity to earn, buy, and spend.

It has gotten to the point where we must have money to live in this world; without money, you cannot survive. Nature gives everything away for free, whereas we put price tags on everything.

We are losing ourselves in earning money. You can't do what you love to do because it doesn't pay, and you're forced to do things you don't want to do because it pays.

When you do something you don't like, you are wasting your time. When you waste your time, it means you are dying.

Takeaway:

We all want to be rich rather than independent; however, these are two very different worlds. Being independent entails breaking away from things that consume your time.

Money plays a significant role in consuming our time because it forces us to do things we don't want to do.

The mark of true love is when you do something, even if it doesn't pay you. You do it without any expectations. Because to be yourself, you shouldn't give a damn about others.

Consider the things you do every day for money, as well as the things you will do if there is no money. You'll know what you love to do.

Being self-independent allows you to devote more time to activities that you enjoy. When you enjoy what you do, you can be yourself.

Money is an artificial thing, only if you remove it from your life you can be natural.
