I am of course taking about agency. Taking ownership of your own life. Far too many people are passive. These people will always come up with excuses. This is the real barrier. Of course there are always barriers an individual cannot overcome. But, we have been endocrinated into helplessness for the benefit of those that want to control us.
I didn't say it was easy. I didn't say we can all be rich. Simply that we have options. No one is gonna do it for you but plenty of people want you to beleive that because it means you are dependent on them.
Now, we do need each other but we don't need leaches. And I see a LOT of them all around.
I think a huge issue is the trades get such a bad rep. People limit what they are to things like pouring cement and digging ditches when it is so much more. People only think about the manual labor and go ew I dont want to work in the 100 degree heat and carry heavy things around. While that is part of some it is not part of all of the trades and people miss that big time.
I'm not entirely sure about this. The question is how long does it take to find that opportunity, and when do you eventually get too old that people no longer are willing to take any chances on you.
