Jim asked some interesting question in a post on 5th February 2007, the question I’ve been asking my self during this whole unit. I’ve tried to take one day off a week to follow my passion, but one day doesn’t seem to be enough as the ideas engulf me and more time is needed. I’ve tried to ask myself the same question Jim asked himself.

‘If you could live the fullest, most rewarding life you could imagine, what would you be doing?

My passion, from I was a little boy is making stuff. As I’ve grown older I’ve found the two things I like to make the best, is music and TV programs. These things I can do for the rest of my life without getting bored or losing interest half way through.

What, if anything, would you have to give up to achieve that life?

The question seems to be the same for everyone. Financial commitments will rule over all until we are free of it. The structure of are society, the political party’s and governmental restriction will continue to pray on the freedom of the people. For to become total free does not mean only mean in body but also in mind, and unfortunately the way we live, thinking about the job the give us the education to give us the job to be able to afford the mortgage, the car, pay your bill which are taxed, the house which is taxed and the car which is taxed three of four times. If you were to get married and have children, that would be another pay out and taxable.

So in order to achieve the things we have a passion for, we would have to give up the things that bound are minds, and make us believe that we cannot. Freedom starts in the mind believing that above all circumstances you, I, we can conquer all, and achieve what we believe.

‘What’s stopping you?’

I’m afraid. Just like Jim, the unknown, or the fear of failure is a present and real emotion that can dominate one’s thoughts and mind when reflecting on moving on, going forward of looking to the future. I believe that everything is possible given time. Time is one of these elements that is totally underrated and not given its true respect.

But in fact if we concentrate, get are self in to gear and dispel the many doubts we have, not just money or status quo, but free are minds and believe, then and only then nothing can stop us.
