goal in life

A new goal in life that has to come to me during this period I term "IDE". Introspection. Development. Emancipation. The goal? To not have to get up every day and go to work at a (relatively) regular time. Im sure this state of living is due to a myriad of factors that I am not aware of, but the end result is what I aspire to achieve. It would require me to be able to motivate myself to get things done, but I would like to believe if my well-being and ability to sustain my living standards (which, admittedly, are quite low) were dependent upon it, that I could make it happen.

This is not a plea to be able to get in a few more games of Fifa in the morning, or during the middle of the day (which would definitely be sick) - but more because the increase in quality of life that I am sure this state of work would bring.

Does this simply boil down to me working for myself? Possibly. But also, it could mean that I reach such a level at the office that I have the leverage to be able to substantially get things done on my own accord, and in my own location. I would emphasize that "working from home" is not tantamount to the condition I describe - but it is something very close. I think to fully bring the concept to life would involve a career in itself that functions not from 9-7 or what have you, but something less continuous (but equally if not more dense in achievement per quantity of time).

(The ability to hit the gym at a more frequent rate, and increased intensity is merely an amazing byproduct of this state of existence, but I would be utterly obtuse if I were to not mention this factor.)

  1. FW - Ahhh an error in logic friend. Like any job, if they want you to be there at a particular time, you gotta be there. Also like any job, if you don't want to go, you don't have to - but you'll get fired.
