People live life in different ways:
- Traditional 9-to-5 job: You work at a fixed location.
- Entrepreneurship: You build a location to work from.
- Freelancing/Digital Nomad/Gig Economy: You work from anywhere with just your tools.
But no matter which path you choose—everyone needs to work. It’s a fundamental part of life.
In India, there’s a Sanskrit shloka that says:
“Do your work and don’t worry about the result.”
The Illusion of Early Retirement
Many people dream of early retirement. They think it means never working again.
But here’s the problem:
If you stop working entirely, your mind goes into chaos.
Without meaningful work, you lose structure, purpose, and mental peace. You may have all the time in the world, but you won’t know what to do with it.
Even if you have all the money, power, and status, none of it can take care of your mental and physical health for you. That’s your responsibility.
The Truth About Life That No One Teaches You
Life is about living, exploring, and experimenting—not just surviving.
There is no absolute right or wrong; everything is shaped by perspective—which we inherit from family, society, and culture.
Today, money is the blood of our economy.
Without it, nothing moves. That’s why earning money is essential for sustaining life.
That’s also why parents push children toward school and college—to get a degree and secure a stable life.
But here’s a tough question:
Are parents truly getting what they expect after their children complete their education?
For most, the answer is NO.
Why Traditional Education Fails to Give You What You Want
The problem isn’t that schools and colleges don’t provide knowledge.
It’s that they provide knowledge designed to support the existing system (economy)—not necessarily what you personally need.
The system needs workers, so it teaches you how to fit into it.
But what do humans truly want? Freedom.
Yet, only a few ever achieve it.
And those who do aren’t the ones who simply follow the traditional path.
They are the creators, not just consumers:
- Factory owners
- Movie producers
- Book publishers
They achieve freedom by providing what people need.
“I Don’t Have Money to Start a Business”—An Excuse That Holds You Back
Many say they can’t start a business because they don’t have money.
But the truth?
You don’t need money to start.
If you have no capital, start by offering services—something people need that aligns with what you already know. And if you don’t have a skill yet, learn one.
Life Is More Than Just Work and Money
This post is just the beginning of building the life you want.
So far, we’ve focused on two pillars of life:
- Health (physical & mental well-being)
- Wealth (earning & financial freedom)
But two more remain:
- Love & Relationships (the people who truly matter)
- Happiness (your inner peace & purpose)
