freeing oneself from mental and financial bondage using the internet

in #hello5 years ago

As my title so aptly put,
I need to free myself.
Like John Smith in the Matrix. Agent Smith, who represents the ego, yet wanted so badly what Neo had. Choice. Purpose.
Neo was a computer hacker who dabbled as a corporate drone, but He, and the matrix knew he would become so much more.

I feel we all have this innate potential - To free ourselves from mental prisons and corporate slavery.
-Does it require one become a pirating computer hacker? No, but it requires going out of our own comfort zone. Whatever that may be, we need to run far, far away from its anesthetizing spell. With mainstream entertainment going as far as producing a movie called HOW TO SELL DRUGS ONLINE, it's getting pretty obvious that people are leveraging their coins to make plenty of their local currency, and not breaking a sweat to do it. Granted, a good deal can change for the better if the person using this tool is wise and shamanic. But it can also prove deadly and facilitate a knucklehead sourcing bad drugs from some chinese basement, and being responsible for a death in the quest for wealth, just like in the movie (SPOILER)

Some will never want to be more than a simple cashier. or hard working spouse. And those same people, I'm willing to bet, would seriously resent the idea of skipping their nightly regimen of watching a TV series to instead educate themselves on the great wide world of digital opportunity. Because it is outside of their comfort zone. That is also why they refuse to learn a new trade or try and create a second hustle, because their thinking and backbone is atrophied and antiquated.

For me, it was and is, learning about new ways of thinking, living, making money, and even learning itself.
I don't even really know where I'm going with this, except to say IT FEELS GOOD TO BE TYPING AND EXPRESSING ! And now that I'm waiting for my first bitcoin purchase to be approved, I have more stake in all of this, so I am extremely excited. I know what Normal is I've seen that, worked the jobs, had the superficial relationships and dealings, and I've "got the T shirt". I'm ready for an entirely different paradigm. Who's with me and what are YOU doing to change your situation . Learning a new trade? getting out of an unhealthy relationship with another person, a draining occupation, or personal habit? No one said change was easy.

I love the internet for its vastness and potential. But I'm now opening steemit for the first time in like a year because I am becoming more and more fascinated with the idea of bitcoin and the freedom and decentralization it can provide.
So now it's time to learn. I would LOVE any links or suggestions as well as just someone to say "hey" and maybe that will keep me around. Hope all is well for whoever is reading this and have a blessed day.
