Money is not the only asset or resource and we do NOT all have the same 24 hours!! I promise you that for life tasks or managing, you could do WHATEVER task, at least 4x as fast as me. I am TURTLE #1! Does that mean I should be in the gutter and homeless? Of course not, because you would probably never have had the patience and perseverance that I have had .. researching and developing this SYSTEM solution for our problems. We each have our special skills and we would do FAR better SHARING and TRADING them to create a better quality of life for us ALL!

Being born with a sunny disposition is a HUGE ASSET. We can whine and wish we were so lucky .. OR .. drag our mind into OUR control. We are the boss, and that wild horse pond will not take over! Keep focusing on "glass half full" .. or if something went wrong it was to help us for a BETTER opportunity in the future!
Nancy Reagan's "Just do it" .. don't do drugs is so ridiculous. Do you not think we loser people (who are alcoholics, addicts or just depressed etc) would not just "do it", if we could??? Is it LOGICAL that we would WANT people to judge us losers .. rather than just CHOOSE to move forward successfully?? It is not so easy for some of us. You so disciplined people have an enormous resource not so available to some of us . We have other skills and assets but they are not celebrated as a pure focus on $ success is. Our minds are focused on more complexity that would have prevented the mess we are now in.
Some of us are thinkers, always seeing new problems or possibilities. Deciding on the plan is slower and often no decision is made. But we see the causes and consequences of problems and solutions which creates a better but slower plan
some of us can't decide between choc and vanilla ice cream .. a DISABILITY! .. inability to face most decisions are probably not of world shaking value. This is where "THINKING" is the enemy!

Tues. June 7, 2022.
what about empathy, understanding, motivational and inspirational ability? patience and perseverance, CURIOUSITY, inventiveness, problem solving skills, research and analysis capability, investigative, design and build solutions to problems, inventive (solve a specific problem), visionary (find reasons and solve bigger, broader problems with new out of the box ideas.) Interesting that we have had NO more visionaries! Noway .. Bezos going to ?mars is ridiculous. Destroy the earth with lack of respect and responsibilty and then just look for new places to destroy with our terrible ENTITLED western attitudes.
?Daniels's trading skills homes, Ann! Being introvert hermit allows little connection and belonging.
We probably don't have a house, but could we share our apartment for now? .. even just rent out a room? Does our family have a cottage we manage staying warm in for the winter? Maybe we don't have much in bank savings, but if we buy from a certain place they sometimes give free (groceries) as their loyalty points add up. Do we have a bike or laptop we could rent out? .. an old camera we could sell? Some people sell their old clothes on line because they are fashion junkies and wear once.
With our new found breathing and CALMING Tools, let's get to work and Let's get creative.
Every single one of us has SPECIAL Talents, skills, expertise that we can share for money or even barter! I never said anything about a Degree or Certification .. there are many other resources we can turn into ASSETS. ASSETS can create wealth, so a Musician's voice is an asset that gets him income. Some people 'busk" (sing on the street for $) to start their music career.
But there are simple talents we can use to survive. Look what Marie Kondo did! She turned her love of order, into a million $ business! That is what we are going to do, even just to not have to worry about rent. Who cares re millions, less stress is what we want! Look for our personal "Marie Kondo" expertise area!
I have great respect for the Window Washers entering Small Businesses alone to make a deal .. just cleaning for cash. Having lived in a glass high-rise for a few years, do you have any idea how hard getting glass clean is? Unless this person does a good job on this street, no one will hire him again. A good job, which FEW sadly do = call backs! No marketing promotional costs required.
No Marie Kondo millions for now .. let's keep our source of income simple to begin. Later we can teach others how, and be paid a small % of their income, in return for all systems go and ready for them. This was the "Franchising" invention, until it lost its soul (wanting to be HUGE .. instead of great.) The Businesses that come from our community will have ONE focus, and only one. A great job done, with respect for a customer, who then will treat US with respect in return. (We don't need disrespectful customers .. goodbye.)
WE each also have liabilities, things that hold us back. Those more well off, who join us, can trade their LIABILITIES for our skill (asset) or fix the liability through learning from our expertise. Hate doing laundry, shopping or cleaning? Pay somebody else to do a BETTER job than you would have done.
Trading our ASSETS (expertise) with our LIABILITES (weaknesses) creates the PERFECT BARTER SYSTEM!
If you are great inspiring and coaching others, your time is more valuable spent helping than keeping your life orderly! Why was this all not BASIC education in school? Strange, not REALLY useful Education we had! As we grow our Community and replicate our "Reverse World" system, we will create our own TRADE ECONOMY ($) with the Blockchain. A REAL awesome use of blockchain as a TRADE LEDGER vs same old ideas of cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, being developed today.
If you have a close or extended family, this is a huge WEALTH CREATING resource to have. Can you move in with Grandma and get her groceries etc.? Does your dad have a contact in a Business area you need? Many of us are not so lucky.
But instead of RESENTING (like I have for decades), we can build our own "family of connected LOCAL people". We became so enamoured with the "global web" we forgot "LOCAL" is the REAL TREASURE. REAL people helping real people in a "neighbourhood" that skyscraper cities have destroyed. Maybe covid will remind us how much more important REAL, local and PHYSICAL .. vs virtual or global is?
Our Reverse World Community will eventually have a REAL local gathering space .. "Church" .. the Library Cafe. A "Church" where we connect to build REAL quality of life for all. We have gotten so far away from actual "quality of life" in our never ending quest for MORE .. extreme, and excess in our COMPETITIVE life style.
"Just be more positive!" .. when you are feeling terror .. seems so shallow and UN-connecting, and UN- caring. But those oblivious, shallow people get through life so much easier. Maybe we too must become more oblivious of all that can or is GOING WRONG. Maybe we have to shut down a part of our "thinking" right brain and focus our mind on some ACTION .. doing vs worrying.
Wed. June 15, 2022 .. if this above makes you feel angry .. "why did I not get their asset .. control and ability to focus POSITIVE easily" .. then go below to Self Discipline section. Always feel free to skip around .. this site should ONLY make you feel BETTER, or please let me know where I went wrong. (email link)
Someone easy going, or laid back, tends to see the positive and does less "CATASTROPHIZING". Can we develop this brain muscle? You know .. be like the guy who just lost everything in a tornado, who honestly means it saying "we'll figure it out, we are all safe .. that is all that matters." Can we control our brain to be more like the "easy going"? I guess if we do think of our mind patterns as brain MUSCLES maybe we could exercise the to better functioning? Hmm? .. do I just rationalize my negativity thinking (causes? consequences?) do seem negative but TRUE! Do I rationalize that it is my brain wiring .. my genes .. nothing I can do about it??? I like this way of thinking better! I have control! MIND CONTROL. My brain is right Hemisphere (think focused) But I have "free will"? over my MIND!
My body (muscles) are in bad shape because I never exercise. I take the blame, accept responsibility for that. Can we start taking the blame for our MORE THINKING behaviour, but also then FEEL IN CONTROL?? Our brain is our physical body wiring, our mind is a separate thing we can DISCIPLINE like a wayward PET! (Is our MIND our spirit, our soul?) Awesome .. this will work better for us!! I know I am out of shape never taking care of my body or myself. Let's also start to take control of our mind , like our brain is a muscle IN OUR CONTROL. That also makes it easier to focus on USING the "Law of Attraction" to our benefit! Or I like the particle vs wave theory of REALITY better.
see .. our eyes are our brain .. use them to control our brain to serve us better
Running a holiday sale or weekly special? Definitely promote it here to get customers excited about getting a sweet deal.
Have you opened a new location, redesigned your shop, or added a new product or service? Don't keep it to yourself, let folks know.
Customers have questions, you have answers. Display the most frequently asked questions, so everybody benefits.
Let your mind WANDER. If we do NOT have something, what are other ways we could get it? I do NOT mean scamming somebody or stealing it! We may have lived a life of convenience, wanting things easy and fast .. now let's challenge ourselves to be MORE inventive. Buying cooked broccoli might cost 4x as much as just cooking it ourself! 5 minutes = many $. Probably nobody paid you a few $ for just 5 minutes!
We can re use things in new ways. We used to use old tires as toboggans. Use up leftover food in soups or stews. Us old people remember a time when you "used it up, wore it out, made it do". (a New England maxim?). Too bad we decided ever new, "improved", latest fads (made by poor workers in other countries) were more important than thoughtful respect for things, treasuring them for decades.
Why did we let ourselves be conned into unbridled, never ending consumption? Maybe we need to take more responsibility today, for the future consequences of our actions? But this progression to disposable has not been completely fair. We were fed sugar in everything we touch. Those 64 chemical names of sugar types that we can't pronounce, fry our brains and destroy our Self Discipline. Killing our discipline first, makes it easy to sell us over and over again with things that should have LASTED.
To add insult to our already injured brain, we were then brainwashed by TV. Those incessant ADS made us believe we needed it all. And today the ads are 100x more intrusive! But blaming will get us nowhere. We need to take action and go back to SIMPLE. The only way for things to change, is if we QUIT .. act more like the Pioneers .. quit buying garbage, stick to simple basics. A great feeling of "sticking it to the man" .. or TAKING BACK CONTROL.
Since we never know if we will have a job tomorrow .. simplifying our life is a great idea. Let's build a better quality of life with our community, by needing less new, improved, useless stuff. If we share our creative ideas for saving and reusing, we can actually end up living a better quality of life. We actually could be HAPPIER than when we were buying 56 shades of nail colour or the latest hugely expensive food craze, or tech APP. Start slowly, ask "do I really need this?" and then when you have less money it won't be quite as hard. For me it used to be a game .. I felt I was winning every time I did the opposite and SAVED.
We need to check out that "100 things" group. Changing our belief of what we really NEED, might be easier than searching for a better paying job or working more hours? Let's at least start thinking about a change in our behaviour.
.. except for friends and family, or belonging and community! And those at least we can still control. Let's work on MORE sharing our resources, and sharing inventive new ways to use them. But first we ned to rethink what our RESOURCES actually are.
BINARY THINKNG link, especially learn about the Dunning Kruger Effect! Search! has made us all believing that we know everything .. arrogant idiots we have become. Everybody thinking they are a kale, yoga or fashion EXPERT has made us an unpalatable society. Besides whatever we think is right, there is always DUALITY. Duality the opposite side to the story! You vegans .. did you know plants have souls? Stop eating plants! Even fungus is amazing! Trees actually work together for the good of all! They are nicer than us! (Some of us believe "Survival of the fittest" right? "You did not try hard enough, that is why YOU are homeless. Don't expect my help now." )

A Tool for Re -Education!
While you work with the amazing 60 page "Your RESOURCES" PDF below, I will better organize and begin to edit my websites. But for you to get ANY help here .. you must FIRST OPEN YOUR MIND TO NEW IDEAS! We have become simple, closed minded Zombies, taking in no KNOWLEDGE, but only seeking INSTANT INFORMATION!
Consider this site like a Book or (?manual) .. kind of a FORMULA for us to get through this? But the Internet makes this "Book" amazing, because I can share it with you BEFORE it is ready to publish! Please forgive the mess .. just take whatever can help you, and I will be happy. I have collected these ideas for decades and had no idea ORGANIZING them BRIEFLY and CONCISELY was sooooo hard! Our "Book" (?manual) will be a work in progress .. but I promise to fix as much as I can quickly. ( I do like 6 jobs, none of which I have a clue about, so please be patient.)
The Formula with the "BREATHE" section will also be helpful to you, even incomplete. (see further down below). Do not let my non professional web skills or Go Daddy site design limitations (web boxes allowing x words only) throw off you use of the idea! There is "old lady wisdom" here, that I want to share NOW, when you most need it. (And this old lady thinks you should start Civil WAR with those ENTITLED Boomers who say my kids should just get a job .. like they did. Oblivious Idiots!) If I am too proud to give you this mess .. you will lose this Time and OPPORTUNITY to discover new CHOICES andCONTROL for your success.
Good luck! Together we CAN do this!
We have so many Resources available, but school forgot to teach this! We are NOT trapped into begging forever for a fleeting "job". We really can create our own Rent money.. but "they" forgot to teach us that. After working through the HUGE RE Education assignment below, we then need to learn how to "sell" ourselves like a Business. Instead of another disrespected worker, we become a Self Employed INDEPENDENT Personal Manager! No more begging .. "Please sir .. I need to eat! Please could you "give" me a job!". NO!! NO MORE OF THAT NONSENSE. We are taking back control over our lives!
Even our Liabilities can make us money. If I had only known my Liability, (THINKING TOO MUCH) .. what makes people hate me .. i. e. being a worrier, could be added to my love of design to create my OWN job! .. that would have been awesome! It would have made me a perfect "Consultant" for Developer's designing their buildings. My ability to see problems that others miss, could have saved decades of inconvenience, living in flawed floor plans that I regularly see. Thanks a lot "Education" System for 18 wasted years! I should have been a valuable ASSET to Developers, instead of feeling bad at my always seeing mistakes and problems. Instead of turning my liability into an Asset for income, I tried to be things I was terrible at!
Since I am old .. you can learn from all my failures .. and skip right to the SUCCESS PART! I was a Teacher and my best class was Bachelor Survival .. which was really "LIFE Resource Management"! Shortly thereafter Home ECONOMICS was removed from the curriculum. What? were we getting too smart! This PDF is what we should have spent YEARS working on! KNOWING OURSELF! This valuable ASSIGNMENT will take weeks of investigating and contemplating, to work on .. but it replaces what I WISH I had learned over 18 years of memorized "education". Research investigating how we can PERSONALLY best CONTRIBUTE to our community, has far more value!
PAY PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO PAGE 20
Are you "a Thinker" or are you "a Doer" .. an ACTION mind? .. or like to think cause, or consequence?
My Hypothesis is there is a spectrum between the 2 .. but extreme opposites will NEVER get along.
War's could be prevented with this knowledge, if we could only learn compassion for the opposite "Brain Wiring" side. (link later). We used to be more balanced in having BOTH Thinking and Acting brain wiring. Being a Leader or Entrepreneur requires this balance, or we can find an opposite wiring Biz Partner.
PS .. re Career Planning .. think "Career" as a way to make PERSONAL INDEPENDENT INCOME .. not an outside controlled "job" to beg for.
I am 74 and never realized until this very minute .. we can actually CREATE TIME! SERIOUSLY! None of us have enough time! We may even be working 2 or 3 jobs still barely able to make ends meet. Let's think about how we could all join up together, use this MAGIC in our society and skip working 2 jobs for the MAN!
This is only one link of ongoing research. Years of study on Resource Management as a Home Economics Teacher are nowhere near enough today. Life is far more complex .. and we need many more new additions to our Tool box. Yet it is wise to remember that .. Returning to some of the the simplicity of the 60's .. can calm our life today.
HEALTH!! Without it NOTHING ELSE MATTERS
we can not be healthy if all our resources are depleted
If you haven't yet checked out this earlier website effort, started before this monster time .. try it. HEY, IT IS PRETTY COMPLETE! Still needs much work to perfect though, sorry.
not completed or even rough edited
I finally figured it out!!! The biggest resource next to Time/ energy and Health is being an EXTROVERT! God does not hate me .. I just had the bad luck of being a constantly thinkng/ writing INTROVERT HERMIT. Don't get me wrong .. I LOVE people and talk to strangers on street corners and make friends all along my street toward the coffee. But actually opening your life .. nada .. people are on MY TIME, with my ability to run away at any moment. This selfish behaviour does NOT build supportive relationships. Supportive relationships are GOLD!
For 50 years I figured god must hate me. Even my poor kids seem to get the bad luck or "lack of Resources" life that I had. I am speaking of grandparents, extended family or even just one good supportive friend. But friends and even family require a time and energy INVESTMENT. You help each other by trading support when it is needed.
But I was always terrified if say someone helped me move, I might not have time or availability to then help them back? I was worried my "Trade Ledger" would not be a fair trade. People sometimes admonish me for giving them a little gift even if they just gave me a new idea. Some say "thank you " is good .. there need not always be a "chocolate effort" toward equal return. Of course the great ideas people have contributed need more like a luxury cruise to repay their value.
When your brain is worried receiving might not = immediate giving you stay away from close relationships. You keep all at arms length. Now there is no one there to help, and when they do out of the kindness of their heart you find an excuse NOT TO BE INDEBTED. HAH! wish I was as terrified of credit card DEBT as I am of people kindness debt. My kindness to people has been trying to build a SYSTEM that works better than the one that has destroyed society. Guess I have been investing my kindness?
from deleted section .. ???
EDUCATION / CERTIFICATIONS .. Use this if you can .. Why are even Engineers baristas?? Yike! A good Certification to obtain for the future will be "Functional Medicine". (see Dr Mark Hyman and Cleveland Clinic). We will also focus on this Health Revolution by developing REAL local "Library Cafe's" whose mission is to teach people in the community "TOTAL HEALTH". (UN- Healthcare .. REAL Health not "care"!)
Without Hope .. all manner of social ills begin to increase.
Mind control ..
We need to TAKE CONTROL. We have more tools available to us than we have been thinking! Esopeially the tool of keeping MOST of our money with OUR PEOPLE. People who do ETHICAL, not shallow scam business. Let's be ONLY their customer. This is called "DOLLAR VOTING" and can influence FAR more, than POLITICAL voting will. Let's share our skills only with us, even go back to BARTER (any Blockchain experts?)

blah blah blah
This site, The Survival Formula, the Alberta Resource .. nothing will help us unless our brain is OPEN .. to new ideas and possibilities. We have become CLOSED MINDED and therefore divided and hostile to any "OTHER Thinking". We need to learn from each other, NOT shut each other out as enemies. Our Ship is sinking! We better bail together, and it needs to be NOW!
But shutting our brain down is so much easier than looking at conflicting facts or ideas. Also, trying to learn new concepts is especially hard for us, because we are so stressed. Life was overwhelming because of its OVERLOAD of EVERYTHING .. long before covid. So now our "Double Stressed" Society will collapse into chaos .. unless we take a breath .. and OPEN OUR MIND TO NEW DIFFERENT IDEAS.
(.. move to the "HAVE'S" website, if you have a job and are just sick of lock down).
Stop what you are doing, seriously .. STOP .. and just BREATHE deeply. When we are worried or afraid we actually forget to breathe. It stops the oxygen going to our brain and our brain stops working. (I made that up, but I think it's true.) Breathe really DEEPLY, thinking calm thoughts, and then breathe OUT the fear. Breathe in calm .. and breathe out worry. This gives us a feeling of CONTROL. We will figure this out! WE who are struggling, really ARE ".. in this together". We can help each other get through this fearful, jobless time.
And I believe there ARE actually lots of kind, supportive "HAVE"S" in the world that WILL help us. I can't believe the wealthy are all just greedy. The not zombie ones, will become part of our RESOURCE SHARE Community as Investors in our mission. Their lives can not be great when stepping over homeless people. We create a "Base quality of life" System for all, with our "Revised Capitalism".
Once you have emptied your lungs and refilled them several times, with the oxygen our body needs, then we can move forward. Do this DEEP breathing many times .. and OFTEN during the day. Just stop and take back control of your physical body, and then your BRAIN. You are in charge, not the jerks who make our life such a struggle! (Once we recreate a System that works for US .. we really WILL be in charge!) Until then just breathe, feeling control .. I do have a MASTER Plan we can develop using all our shared skills and expertise! When you breathe in, think "we CAN do this"! When you push air out .. pretend it is anxiety, panic and nervous tension. Breathe out fear, breathe in "we can do this!" We are going to try a NEW way, not the "sheep ant" rut we have been stuck in, begging for "jobs"! We go back to "barter" on STEROIDS.
While we are breathing consciously, it is good to think about what we can actually be thankful for. If we can't pay our rent, or have no food .. or are just worried that will happened soon .. pretty hard to think "Gratitude". But we must! You know how when your (teeth) hurt, and you think "DAMN why did I not appreciate my teeth when they were just fine? Never even thought about my teeth! Until they are No LONGER FINE. And now they HURT SO BAD!" Let's appreciate everything BEFORE it is gone .. and we wish we had been more thoughtful and appreciated things once missing!
Look at corona .. I never knew how much even shallow hugs meant, til they are now only a memory. I am not a stuff buyer but I had no idea how much I love SEEING cool stuff, the joy of beautiful colours and design. Too late now .. nothing is available we always took for granted.
Even if we are almost homeless, we can try to appreciate that we can move our body, that we can hear and for me the amazing ability to SEE colour, lines, and light! It is usually true that "Things could always be worse". I just hate when some jerk who has it all, says that. "Like what do you even KNOW about struggle, jerk face!" .. but we can't let the HAVE"S steal that truth from us!
Now that your poor brain has some oxygen to work with .. FOCUS! Take back control of where that brain of ours is going. We have forgotten WE are in control here! We are not going to beg "them" for jobs anymore. We are going to keep all our Personal Resources between us and trade. They can keep their $$. WE will trade amongst us .. and force them to RESPECT what we offer. People and planet have always been more important than profit .. so now we will remind "them" the profit comes from us .. as customers!!
Sure .. if they sell 5000$ rings, or Art we can not HURT "them". But they have forgotten they make far more from MILLIONS of us buying the 10$ version! Do the math! You will need to do good math when you make YOUR MANY SKILLS into a business. A Self Employed entrepreneur, vs begging a boss, now YOU ARE THE BOSS. Other people need what you are good at, because they are NOT good at your talents. No matter what your expertise is, there are people who need you. Once Corporations see less profit because we QUIT them, they will recognize we are a FORCE to reckon with! They will join us and be GOOD Companies, instead of just pretending to be. We are done with fake virtue signalling of how wonderful companies are, done with it just being same old false advertising. Be a Member or we will NOT support you with buying! Sure we must sacrifice for awhile! But won't it be well worth it? Before long, they will beg to join US, so that we come back to them again as Customers. They forgot who is boss. They used to say the customer is always right. Well we want Employees and Community more respected. In return, we will be more loyal to the TRULY good companies.
We can VOTE everyday with our money! Do not give it to any company that is not FAIR to us, or our community. We need to be paid fairly and given secure work and RESPECT. So focus on "WE CAN" and "ME! .. IN CONTROL". We will get to HOW soon. (see link) But let's start by NOT supporting those who only voice how good they are. For most it is UNTRUE "virtue signalling". I love when "they" say re CSR "Our Employees gave a million hours to help the community". I always wonder "Were those Employees at work when they volunteered their time?" If not .. YOUR volunteering is not THEIR credit to steal! Sadly, almost everything today is just NOT TRUE. WE are going to try to find TRUTH again, together. It will take a LOT of work, patience and investigation. Sacrifice .. but to gain back control of ourselves and society.
You get to CHOOSE your attitude. There is no question that life has become hell. Injustice and inequality are everywhere. It all can destroy our day and any hope, if we are Thinkers (?woke?). I have been ranting about Friedman and Profit and evil for so long, I forgot about Wattles! And look at that!! (God) sent me exactly what I needed!! (see the 3rd long quote. Can we be that compassionate to Trump followers today? Wattles was amazing!) So let's LOOK for good in our day, focus on good people. The "bad" people are probably just crazy stressed too. Hopefully we can get them to join us? (The BLOCKCHAIN allows us to CHANGE EVERYTHING! It will be bigger than the internet at disrupting old ways. It can give us power we have never had). We can be like a "Bird Murmur"! Go to minute 3 of this video, to feel real hope in the wonder of the universe! https://cutetropolis.com/2020/09/03/dylan-winter-starling-murmurations/)
Our GOOD positive attitude can be Spiritual (god) .. or be Scientific (quantum physics) .. because sorry guys, I don't hear you saying GRAVITY is a lie. All the people who say science is a hoax are in trouble, because the "Law of Attraction" exists as surely as gravity does. Why else do jerky people attain great "success", while some of us smarter, actually harder working, get NOWHERE? (see Self Sabotage) There is a belief we are moving to a HIGHER LEVEL OF CONSCIOUSNESS. Focus on that we will now be in a "HEAVEN"? .. or .. a great place. (see Dr Joe Dispenza and the Schumann Resonance, earth's vibration is speeding up.) will link later
The Internet could have done so much GOOD, if we only used it in smart, helpful to Society ways. (Instead of brain frying, instant search answers, making us stupid). Maybe the Internet has just been a rebellious teenager, and now we will get the grown up, respectful of others, ADULT responsible "Internet"? The web is actually us now .. so let's GROW UP. Focus on that "community" being made up of caring "WE THE PEOPLE" instead of divisive bullies. We can be "we the people"again, if we use tech FOR GOOD instead of the shallow garbage we have fallen into. Think UTOPIA .. here we come, if we are heading to higher consciousness!
We have lost control of our OWN mind and life! Advertising and Consumerism made us buy into things that do not create quality of life. A Community of kindness, consideration, listening, being supportive OR even giving KIND suggestions for a better way .. is more important than anything to be bought. We have forgotten to control our OWN mind, to focus on what is important and how we will live. Sorry, but we are now just "phone faced SHEEP ANT" zombies .. Followers of all the shallow digital nonsense and excess.
We continue to focus on shallow consumption and invention, as our quality of life collapses into a society with NO JOBS. We need to take back control of our mind, our PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY and self discipline .. if we expect change. Now the BRAIN FOCUS must be on how to pay rent. But that will work better if we control our mind and think SOLUTIONS vs wasting energy battling with those who differ. Take back control of your mind from the power forces dividing us. Focus ONLY on what can move you FORWARD, but without harming others. Work more on the Alberta PDF above .. finding your Personal Resources to trade. How could you get others to pay you for your skills? What could be traded for your expertise or even just time as you investigate creating personal income? Old people need companionship and help and they have $! If you like old people there is tons of "work" there to be helpful to them.
If you are raised in Religion we believe God will hear our prayers. But if He has not been answering, we may be sad we are forgotten. But science and religion are converging! God does not help our friend .. but send us trauma! He loves all of us .. but we have to love ourselves in order to bring on the MAGNET of new possibility.
When we feel DESERVING .. we can also achieve the same success, some more (selfish?) people seem to easily get. There used to be books about SELF SABOTAGE. The scientific Law, like gravity brings us what we EXPECT.
If we feel uncomfortable with the words, "MANIFEST", "meditate" and "mindfulness" just face there is a PHYSICAL scientific Law we are not yet understanding. It is strange some of us are not "yoga" comfortable. We know those techniques have worked for centuries in societies functioning way better than ours. (I am trusting there are others, not just me, who also feel uncomfortable? Especially maybe men? .. who I most want to help.) You men have been forgotten and demonized for too long! (add link) Leave out the word "manifest" if it is uncomfortable .. maybe we can call it "envision"? Or .. can we just believe in an actual MAGIC MAGNET? The Law of Attraction is actually like gravity! But just like when they thought the world was flat, they never believed that discovery for ages either. Like the LAW of gravity .. there is a Law of Attraction .. but we just can't see it. We have to BELIEVE it!
Since the "Law of Attraction" is VERY REAL (like a magnet!).. we actually CAN create the reality we want .. if we keep FOCUSED on it! I realize I have been focusing on apocalypse for months, instead of finally we will flip from internet as DYSTOPIA to the amazing tool it is that can create Utopia .. if we RE Focus and RE Educate society. Thru thinking DOOM daily I HAVE BEEN HELPING TO CREATE THAT REALITY. Different realities actually exist at once, so let's stick to the Utopia we can create. You can think this crazy talk or use it as a tool. Let me know if you have better ideas to "save the world". (link)
So much to worry about. Once all our terrors are listed .. What is the priority, the first problem we must solve? For most it is food .. or rent. (see Resource Management creativity). With a brain powered by the oxygen of BREATHING, and calmed by recognizing there IS positive available .. which of our many worries is the PRIORITY for you right now? Put the importance of these tasks in order. Remember words become things .. so let's reword (problems/ struggles) to Tasks. Even better if we reword them into GOALS .. it will feel like we can accomplish them, instead of the overwhelm of so many things to do.
(Sorry, I need to go thru all my sites and redo the negative words!!) Once all the things we must fix are no longer flying around in our head we can more calmly start to focus on the SOLUTIONS.)
Link .. Brainstorm .. what are all the possible ways to solve this? .. think crazy ideas , because today NOTHING is crazy. How do thoughtless, shallow "influencers" get rich?? They believe in themselves! They feel they DESERVE! They are NOT smarter and better than us, they just are lucky to have a total Self Belief attitude.
You have as many or more skills and talents as they do. Just go for it! If you believe the Universe (god?) is there to HELP you, you will make to happened.
For now ask your Landlord if you can fix his Tech problems, clean his house, set up a website or maintain the property? Get creative, we absolutely need to quit thinking we have to BEG for a job. "They" all become evil once they achieve power. How is Uber Eats a "share community"? YOU take all the costs and risks .. they take all the profit .. no worries. Do they pay your 50$ parking ticket when you got paid 5$ for the delivery? No, they just plan a fleet of robots so they ned not put up with your whining.
We can change that system if we stick together. Enough with all the power being outside us! Think RE Pioneer! Pioneers had none of our "systems", but they probably lived better than us (less comfortable, agreed). Is stuff and comfort really quality of life? I would go back to our outhouse but feeling more secure and less stressed any day. Most will not sacrifice, but start thinking what real quality of life looks like? DEFINITELY not life today.
You may even have a job, but are you in debt? You too are living precariously! Most live paycheck to paycheck. As jobs decrease this DEBT will not work. By sticking together and helping each other, we can build a better system. Remember the Pioneer General Store and Barn Raising? Our REAL quality of life is so poor now, that the life of the first Americans seems an adventure! A hard life IN A REAL CARING COMMUNITY might be better than the luxuries of "progress". Or how about we use inventions as TOOLS .. instead of life itself .. all of us "phone faced sheep ants."
If we want to build our own income and never beg for a job, we have some work to do first. We will calmly work on one thing at a time .. focusing .. don't let the many other tasks intrude. Keep imagining each step as already done. They say it is not working harder, but focusing more on the completed desired outcome that works better.
I always get frozen by the 700 things to do. Then I do NOTHING and run away! So let's just chose the priority and forget the rest. There will be time when this task is done. Those of you that can MULTI-TASK? .. I am so jealous .. get away from me! Hey, I bet you can NOT Multi-THINK like I do? I can take many divergent problems and throw them together and voila! .. a SOLUTION! That is what this is. But just watch me struggle to get bills paid or anything with more then ONE STEP! Too much contemplation makes us thinker's life hard. Accomplishing normal life management is SLOW for us! You action minds just "Get over it and get 'er done", and I am so envious of that talent. But society has collapsed from action, so now we have to listen to us SLOW thinkers for a bit! (See "The Divided Brain" ) We need creative "out of the box" solutions for our collapsing society and Societal Systems.

Teaching was the perfect job for me. There used to be a saying "those who can't .. teach". I am wonderful at pulling together ideas and possibilities and dreams and goals and missions. but what do I DOOOO? So I will be struggling right along with you! in no way think I am telling you how to live the great life .. I just hope some of my research to LEARN HOW may help you. You probably ACT better and faster than I do. So if my research does not help me yet .. at least you can get a good start! I am angry now because if one is slow, and can't make decisions, life is more difficult. But what we must start to do is CELEBRATE what we ARE good at. Instead of whining about what I can't do (be fast and ACT!) .. no one is more CURIOUS, or obsessed with researching every possibility to find a solution for a problem. But if too curious your brain goes off on too many branches of thought and gets lost. Apologies at this still confusing collation of ideas to improve our quality of life.
.. here is a perfect! quote from an article clarifying what the author (SHAW) actually believed.
"This week, I am stepping down as director of the University of British Columbia School of Journalism to create the new Global Reporting Centre, a not-for-profit Institute housed at the university, dedicated to the lessons I have learned from students: Question the way we do what we do, and improve it.
We get comfortable in how things are done, and have always been done and those who do not have the chance to be challenged by curious, bold young minds are often relegated to doing things the same old way. Those who can't teach, just do – and that's a shame."
