I think 100r reminds me of the thing we're missing the most nowaydays - bravery.
We're afraid to take chances, to explore ideas, to take a slightly harder path or to explore difficult challenges. We're risk averse and we're unwilling to try new things. Reading about their trips, about all the work they do on the boat and their approach to code (love the concept of making software for one person!) makes me feel like a coward and how I would love to be more brave about how I deal with code, life and the environment around me...
I appreciate all your work Rek and Devine. I'm glad yo see you busy doing nothing...
This has got to be one of the saddest replies possible. We have everything to gain from it. If we're unwilling or unable to explore the parts of existence that scare us we cannot possibly come up woth new things. It is the very essence of our evolution and growth, going beyond the comfortable and known.
Capitalism is easily the worst thing that has happened to us.
The understanding that initiative enlightenment is the fact that bravery is universally fungible across domains.
This eliminates the need to define the "correct" way of doing things as "the way everyone else does it", because you can acquire the bravery to accomplish your most important goals from any other domain. You can break the narrative.
The first step is just to have the bravery to start. That's where I'm stuck at fwiw. :/
It's already crushing the majority of us. Unless some people are brave enough to forge alternate paths and live different lives, it will crush the rest of us too eventually.
