Wake up

Posted on by philipdodson

20-30-40-50 years ago we might have had a house phone, a TV set, one car, one holiday a year, our ‘Sunday Best’ outfit.

We didn’t have a mobile phone (some have 2), a mini iPad, an iPad, a laptop, a home PC – that’s each. We didn’t have a car each, we didn’t have the internet, we didn’t have a TV in every room.

We have everything now, more than we can possibly use or value, we are connected to email, social media, the internet and the world 24/7 wherever we are. We have more devices, technology, connections and alerts than we’ve ever had.

Yet we are the most lonely, most disconnected, dissatisfied, inhumane, violent, hateful, distrusting and generally miserable humans to ever walk this planet. We are the most unconscious and mind-controlled ever.

If only we could wake up and see it. The reality of human’s insanity that we live on a daily basis is there for us all to see. Then it is a choice as to whether we want to stay awake or go back to the insanity of unconsciousness.

Work less

The antithesis to what we are conditioned to do. We are programmed from early childhood and throughout our entire lives to keep working harder, hustle, be active, get to it, don’t stop…

Work less, consume less, have a simpler life, recycle, repair, reuse, don’t accumulate stuff, be free from attachment.

The reason that we need to work more is to keep pace with the ‘lifestyle’ we’ve been sold, where the only winners are the owners of that ‘lifestyle’ we just keep buying.

No one lies on their death bed and wishes they’d worked more. They wish they had spent more time with their friends, family, laughed more, travelled more, done all those things that work got in the way of.

Work less and have more joy.
