Work For Yourself

After you work for yourself for a while, you won't go back. If you are of a certain ilk, that is. You're not born that way, working for yourself makes you that.

You might go back in body for a brief period, but it's impossible to go back in mind.

Once you know, you know.

The cat's out of the bag, the can of worms is open, the horse has bolted, and there's no putting them back.

Krishnamurti said governments want technicians. Corporations do too. They might present all the right optics, say that they want free thinking, creative people in their organisation.

But they don't.

Work for yourself.

At first it will be exciting. Then it will be hard. After that, both combine.

If you stick it out you'll be a happier, more fulfilled, more contented human being.

Anything less than that and you forgo your right to liberty.

Governments want efficient technicians, not human beings, because human beings become dangerous to governments—and to organized religions as well. That is why governments and religious organizations seek to control education.
