Hack your life to freedom

Friday 15:00 - Studio 1

Freedom is not anarchy. Freedom exists without the necessity for anarchy. Freedom is earned and not granted. We have to build freedom the same way that we have to build love in our lives, or anything else that makes us happy. We shape our freedom by our actions and choices. You can learn to be free. By recognizing the problem you direct your energy towards finding a solution, using your intelligence, creativity, experience, and courage. The great thing about having a problem, is that there is always a solution, and finding it is fun and rewarding- even beautiful. So switch from thinking about the problem and start thinking about the solution. Very often what we see as our biggest problem becomes our greatest advantage, joy, and source of fun. It is a moment that stands out from the routine flow of life, and creates an opportunity to feel alive. The agency we acquire in the process of problem-solving brings contrast to the typical experience of life as random. It is these moments that we will remember. If you feel that the government, your family, your friends or even you yourself are taking your freedom away, hack your way to freedom. There are concrete ways to do it, and methods I would be happy to share through short stories from my life. Some may sound outright impossible. If you really want freedom, I can inspire you to challenge your limitations, break the chains that bind you, and change your perception about what is possible. We can make reality fun by changing it from one second to the next. It takes some work but you can start to see reality as a fun illusion. Be ready for change! I hope my life stories make you laugh and later, think. Life is beautiful when it is full of love, joy and happiness. Ingenuity comes from all of the above. Here are a few parting thoughts: Bad (or rather lost) people take advantage of our fear. We are all imperfect human beings and weak as such, but we must not show it. We all possess the potential for every strength and weakness, virtue and flaw, and it is our choice to decide who to be. Most people believe that they have no choice and they accept what seems easiest. But that is a trap. In business I choose to be strict, cold, emotionally untouchable. It is a game we play for profit. It can be fun and exciting, but it is never fulfilling. In life it is the exact opposite. I do not want to be any of the above things in life. Life should be about love, helping and giving without any expectation of return. Everyone is free to choose. Believing otherwise is an excuse. Whole companies, countries, societies and empires are crashing not because it is so hard to change difficulties and find solutions, but because company owners, governments and rulers don’t want to see the problems. The problems go ignored to protect the ego’s demands for comfort. Break free of your ego, and be free. Use your brain and follow your heart all the time. Instinct is always right if you use it and train it. Instinct is the set of your life experiences. If you don’t believe in your own experience, your instinct gets offended and quits the job. : )
