We spend our lives working for moments. Live fully, and create memories. Don’t let material things and social norms steal your joy. We have been living in social suppression forever.
It feels like we work eight hours to live only four of them. Somehow working six days a week to only get a full one back. It seems like our eight work hours is only followed by eating twenty minutes to an hour throughout the day. With all intentions to sleep for eight hours, but only getting an average five or six. It's insane to work all year to take one or two weeks off. Then we work our whole life to retire in old age, when we can't move like we used to. Conteplating what may be some of your last breaths on earth.
Eventually, the goal is not to wake up one day to realize life was only setting you up for your own demise. Let's break free from material and social servitude, and live fully.

This generation is having the attitude of living more own our own terms. A lot of peoole are realizing that climbing a corporate or company ladder doesn’t sound appeasing anymore. Making the most amount of money, while working the least amount of hours, and making the most impact while you dedicate a majority of your time back to living on your own terms is the most ideal situation. Instead of spending all of our time appeasing the man, and making big companies more rich, you're spending time with the people you love, and working on yourself and personal endeavors.
Investing time into yourself is more highlighted more than ever. Working 40 hours a week, and being required to have family vacations and mental health days approved is old news. Working for a wage someone thinks is “fair" has always felt demeaning and undermining our value. These systems are known consistently for treating us like a number, and are rarely supportive outside of our roles.
