Recession is still on-going and nobody really knows when wall street or whatever monetary system that governs it will be back in order. When it supposedly and ‘shockingly’ does stabilize (after the powers that be has had enough benefiting from it and gotten a large substantial amount to once again put everything in order to show that they did and can do something about it, thereforefore throwing people off plans and schemes) most of the world will still be back where they were, in the system struggling and still caught up in what is widely known as the ‘rat race’.
The rat race is a financial strategy implemented and perpertuated by business owners and the government, designed to keep the poor, poor and working and the rich, rich and wealthy from the poor folks work.
For example people get up everyday, most unhappy (like 95%), dragging feet to work, to work for somebody else, building up the owner of the business’s dreams of becoming wealthy. People do this to pay for rent or mortgage, phonebills, gas bills, electricity bills and any other bills that the government legalizes to keep us working. Some people will do overtime and try to climb up the ladder hoping that the situation will change, it doesn’t.
People soon find that the higher they climb, the more work it entails. Personal and social time is sacrificed to do nothing but work in hope to bring in money which is deducted by a process called taxing. Nobody gets the full amount of their labour, the business owners and government will get the first dibs on your hard earn cash. Then again, you did apply and agree to work for them.
The rat race is like an hamster in a wheel, who tries and strives to get somewhere, motivated by food but gets nowhere. It gets nowhere, tiring itself out, till death. No matter how fast or how hard the hamster climbs, it stays stagnant, unable to fulfil its hope of touching let alone eating the food that it sees. A lot of us are like that, running and running, motivated by fear.
Fear of losing sight of the food clouds the the hamster’s ability to find another way. The hamster could use the wheel to climb to a certain point of the wheel and then propel itself by jumping forward. But filled with doubts the hamster will not see this and if it does, won’t take the risk, paralysed by fear that the plan won’t work. The hamster sticks to what it knows, it sticks to the comfort and cetainty of the wheel.
So long as people know that the job (the wheel) is available (turns) there is relief and willingness to stay in the job (wheel) with the satisfaction that at least money is coming in despite not getting the total amount they have worked for (taxtation). Most people seem rather content to go through a continous cycle as ‘slaves’ feeling sure and surrendering to control than feel liberated to risk following a passion or a dream.
Many men exercise this same strategy in chasing women and get no where financially. They fall into a trap controlled and motivated by lust, wasting creative time to be all they can be. A woman only has as much power that the man gives her or allows just like a business owner who is really dependant on a worker for his or her fiancial freedom. A job is not a bad thing or a wasted experience so long as it is used to serve a mission and creation. Liking women is not a bad thing so long as you have taken care of business first.
Then there is still the required assessment and observation of getting with a woman who will surely bring more to the table than just looks and love. Love can only be stengthened with action and reactions whilst doing everything to handle business for the supplement or growth of the relationship.
The only way to stop the stagnancy created by the wheel (job) is to release the nuts and bolts (decrease the amount of control a job has over your life) and use the wheel (the job) by sending it into motion, riding and controlling it to get everywhere. Robert Kiyosaki in his ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad’ series states directly and indirectly that as soon as someone can read cashflow, they will become aware of the magnitude and strategies of the enslavement and manipulation of rat race. They will be able to do something about it.
Come out of the rat race. You are not a hamster or a rat!
The Brotherhood of the Game are aware and doing the best we can to get out of the rat race. We are a business! A creation! Hopefully we can provide as much information as we can to help, inspire, encourage and empower you to do the same. Thank you for your support and elevating this movement so far.
