My question is crystal, and relevant because you are also caught up in this system of rules that you have to abide to. I was not even there, it was the early stages of our time there exist the great minds of all time(at least we think so) who came up with all the inventions and they lived their lives smoothly not anxious of anything because there was no standard back then. Creativity was endorsed and failure meant try again. They lived out of their hobby, well there where no careers back then. Your career was yourself, what are you bringing in the table. From Gallelio making the first telescope to Jobs giving us the best pixels in our machines.
Later on we took their life style(Shakespeare, Newton, Einstein, Aristotle, etc.) and turned it into the way of life i.e. The Rules. I have been wondering lately why are we not creative? inventive? and satisfied? then I came to a conclusion that its because we are not wearing our shoes, they just don't fit. We took people's hobbies and turned them into our careers neglecting our hobbies in which we can find contentment in. I am reminded of a story I was told whereby animals met to compete with on another, and swimming was the standard in which their victory was measured by; the Elephant drowned, Lion drowned, Giraffe drowned you can now see the trend and obviously the aquatic animals made it, why?
(Think about it, before you continue)
The Rules tells us to go study, get good grades so that we can secure a good job. They don't tell us that the government will take more than our tithing through tax and promise us a retirement fund in which we wont live to benefit from since life expectancy is low. Who set the rules? Why do we have to work on most half a day(8 hours and stuck in traffic) then come home tired depriving our kids and spouse family experience? Who told us to sleep when there is a moon and work when there is sun, in fact why should we work from the first place? Are we caught up in a system of rules and we are stuck in it because we are afraid of change?

You may read this from the first time here on this blog that this is an old system of slavery. You go to work for a pay check(worse: once a month!) like slaves submitted to their masters for a meal. No work No pay, and its not like they are paying you enough so that you can be free, they pay you enough so that you can be more dependent to them month after month. Pay your bills(at least most of them) and by mid month you have zilch then you anticipate for the end of the month for a pay check! Its 21st Century Slavery and to tell you the truth its disgusting. If a slave doesn't work he will either get beaten or killed. If you don't work you will be beaten(hurt because you can no longer feed your dependents) or killed(what are you going to eat?) until you decide to go to your master(Employers) to use you then give you a meal(pay check) that will sustain you half a month. Sometimes you get caught up not even realizing that the check comes only 12 times in a year. Are you enjoying your job? If you do, big ups! If you don't i.e. working because you have to not want to? then there is no difference between you and the slaves who where taken from Africa to build America in boats. Who has set the rules?!
Education is the key, but I am afraid the locks have been changed over time as a result our graduates are seeking jobs at the robots(traffic lights to my readers from England) and are desperate for jobs. The very same education that claims to be the key teaches us how to submit not how to rule because immediately we rule, the rules are going to change. Who has set the rules? The reason you work nine-to-five its because a motto company decided that in the 50's. Have you ever questioned the logic of numbers, like why 1 + 1 = 2, Who has set that rule?
There is a threat issued to those who don't want to abide by the Rules. They will be killed by the very system of rules that is set. To mention a few survivors: Zuckerburg didn't abide, and manage to revolutionize social media. Steve Jobs didn't abide, and manage to revolutionize the tech device industry. Gordon Moore didn't abide, and manage to revolutionize the processors we use on our computers. For how long will you be trapped in the status quo?
When will your liberty come? There are only two types of people in this world; nails and hammers. Which one are you?
