Getting Rich, Explained.

In the digital world of the 21st century adjustments need to be made. Old ways of helping each other through hard times are no longer valued. When was the last time your neighbors participated in a barn raising? How often have you had to help the guy at the end of the block drive his cattle to market? Speaking personally, I can’t remember the last time I had to help the townspeople repel Visigoths or Saracens at the town walls. These are the things that used to bring communities together. No we drift into the seduction of streaming television or the magic of short videos on the internet.

Community might be the wrong word for the loose assemblies we live in today. It might be more accurate to call the knots of people that drive home from work, park in their garage, close all the doors, windows, and drapes, and relax in front of an electronic umbilical cords that keep us attached to the things we find important. We live in hundreds of tiny villages containing one to five people. Tiny, self contained municipalities scattered along the streets of our cities and towns. Our doorbells are the modern version of Pavlov’s bells. When it rings we run frantically to retrieve our dinner, packed neatly in disposable plastic. 

How do we help each other, what steps can we take to enrich the inhabitants of the tiny towns surrounding our little village?

We can give our neighbors, the sovereign citizens surrounding us, cryptocurrency. The perfect gift for the modern recluse. Buy enough for everybody in all the tiny, self contained hamlets surrounding your kingdom. We recommend putting them in Amazon boxes or packs to make sure they bring them inside. 

If you don’t understand bitcoin, that’s fine, nobody does. It’s a modern alchemy transforming small amounts of cash into dreams of untold, decadent wealth. It’s like the Powerball only everybody wins.

Life Explained, Helping Make the Best Of Your Day.

A "no-win" situation arises when any course of action will result in an untenable situation. It is a situation that is so distasteful that the best that can be hoped for is not being the worst loser. In general a person should avoid any encounter that ends with a "no-win" resolution.

A "win-win" situation on the other hand is a problem where everybody wins. Which is much nicer, unless you happen to be what is called a "sore winner" who not only enjoys "the thrill of victory" but relishes watching somebody else suffer through "the agony of defeat." In that case a "win-win" is really just a "no-win" in disguise. Really, there are no hard and fast rules about winning in life, and in most situations there is something lost and something gained.

Fortunately, there are times, and occurrences that make for a much wider margin of unsatisfactory victory.

Working from home is a good way to strike a blow for freedom, or at least a short, unsatisfactory furlough. While it may not have all of the comforts of home... wait, I guess it does. It may not be perfect, but it does have advantages over working from work.

• The commute is much shorter. Some people can get from their bedroom to the television in a few seconds.
• There is a much more casual dress code when working from home. Pajamas are acceptable at home but not always appropriate for the office. Be careful about video conferencing before the first attempt at personal hygiene. Uncombed hair, and a Batman robe will not help your next evaluation. 
• It is a great time to catch up on household chores. The last three seasons of whatever show you are trying to watch, for example. Or finally getting a chance to play a video game without those punk kids around to stomp you into a hopeless sense of despair.
• Naps are much more successful at home.
• You can save your sick days and do something fun.
• None of those pesky "have you been drinking?" questions to interrupt your groove.*

Life is filled with opportunities to lose in satisfactory, appealing ways. Take advantage of each, but when you need that lift that only a small, meaningless victory to make it through another day come to us, here at "Life Explained, Life Coaching for the Average Man."
