I'm serious, it's that same way how throwing away food is a crime. One life is a precious and priceless thing, our lives are measured in moments of time, and we work most of that time away under the promise that "later" we will be taken care of and everything will be better. And I've seen that promise broken for so many people now I can't but to believe that any Incorporated entity of business is, in fact, a demonic force.
Think about it, what is a demon? A disembodied entity which only prioritizes its own desires, sometimes possessing the bodies of people in order to do achieve these desires, causing strife and harm for its own gain and amusement, and eventually either killing its host or leaving it damaged, forced to fend for itself. A company is a disembodied entity which only prioritizes its own financial gain, sometimes forcing people to do things they know are wrong or don't want to do, and eventually lays off those people who don't just quit looking for something less taxing or monotonous, leaving people to fend for themselves.
Anyway, at this point you either get it or not, agree or not, but the purpose of this post is more for me than for you. I have more of the time I've been needing in order to work on my "side projects" and now that I've been working for some time I'm back in the habit of being busy and I can't let myself slide into a free fall of free time once again.
I have A LOT of good ideas but none of these ideas are prioritized or organized by time or necessary investment. In fact, I have people waiting in anticipation as to what I'm going to do because they are receiving my ideas as though through a strobe light and while they light the colors and can see the good in them they are in no way shape or form translatable into a complete picture. That’s my job, and I haven’t been doing a very good job of it. And frankly I don’t even know how all this is supposed to fit together yet, I just know that it does and that it will work out. Of course there will be trial and error but the path from here to where I want us to be is a line on a graph with an exponential curve UP that I can definitely see becoming a reality. In the end will it be enough to save my self, my friends and family, my people, Springfield, Missouri, the States, North America, and/or The World? I don’t know. But I do know that we must try and so long as we do that we will be spared a more terrible fate. And get this, we will have fun doing it.
So every journey begins with a single step, what is that step? The highest priority on my list at this moment is income, I don’t have enough. And working my life away at KFC isn’t going to fix that, not even with a raise and more hours, so how much am I talking about and where is it going to come from?
I need, at the very least, $1000 per month in order to pay my rent, bills, and medicines and that is a status quo wage. There are small changes I can make in my routines and habits in order to stretch that a little further but it’ll never be enough to graduate my income. So what is the first step to graduating my income?
Passive income would be the easiest to maintain with small amounts of time. Youtube, Amazon link referrals, Google AdSense ad revenue. I think those are my three best bets.
Then a thing occurred to me, the credit score for "my" 501(c)3 corporation will/may be separate from my own. Huzzah!
Out of time. More later, maybe. Need more journaling.
