If you’re anything like me, you have a burning need to work on things that you feel matter. Who’s out there saying, “nah you know, I really don’t give a shit about what I’m working on just give me my check and keep me as irrelevant as possible.”

Sure we might know A LOT of people that ACT that way, but I am irrevocably convinced that given the opportunity, NO ONE prefers to live that way. If we can agree that what I said is true, why then do we continue to do nothing about our current situation or feel like our wheels are in a perpetual spin?

Here’s a few reasons:

We’ve been trained and conditioned by schools, religion, our parents, our peers, institutions
We have extremely low positive reinforcement
We don’t believe we’re good enough
We don’t have a system or process that is simple and effect
We have more options, distractions, and “random bullshit” clouding our mind-space (now more than ever in history)

…so why work on things that matter?

for what it’s worth, I’d say it’s the only way to live.
