We came from a time when people used to be self-sufficient and make use of some extra time to do work at home, then moved into the factories in cities and started the long working hour, slowly to the office 9-5, then the digital nomad lifestyle and everyone wants to be content creators these days. I wonder what's next 🤔 e.g., going back to live in the countryside and raise a family?
The real intelligent test is getting what you want out of life instead of being sucked into playing whatever game out there.
Everyone has a limited amount of time and energy on this planet; the more time you spend working on something you hate or dislike, the less time left to work on something you actually love.
Simple happiness: dipping fresh bread in olive oil. image

The countryside creates strong men. The city creates weak men. You are "forced" to be stronger, take responsibility when you are out in the wild, and learn how to work with nature instead of working against it. image

Saw someone talking about how "Most olive oil is not olive oil." I am fortunate enough to live in places where olives grow abundantly, and guess what's the simplest way to get the best stuff? One of the hacks I've learned is to go to the weekly bazaar and ask the locals where they buy the olive oil from. No fancy bottles or labels, just people who have been selling this for many years from their family farm; No hard-selling, fair price, and delicious! That's how word of mouth used to work, but then things get complicated when cities grow bigger and bigger, and people come and go, potentially even getting away from doing unethical things.
