Bread & circuses

I loved, played and have been a fan of sports since a little kid. I would get together with friends and enjoy the experience of it all. Watching the game, shit-talking and drinking beer. That's the main way me and my friends chilled together. Now, in my early 30s, I've lost an interest in this type of entertainment.

My enthusiasm for it is dead. The passion and adrenaline that it gave me when I played as a kid is unforgettable but can't be replicated. I can still hang out while a game is on, but I am not into the hype of it all. I just feel like at this time in my life, I have real shit to focus on.

It's Sunday as I am writing this. I guarantee you that if you go on your Facebook page, pretty much everyone on your timeline is talking about football and the Superbowl.

Our government has shutdown. We are on the brink of economic collapse. The government is cutting all types of benefits for those in need. GMO foods are destroying our children. We have ethically and morally corrupt folks running the administration. But most people are focused on...watching football, shit-talking and drinking beer.

I've seen many videos online of fans brutally fighting rival fans. All over a team that gives zero fucks about them.

People get so heavily invested into "their team" that they're willing to harm another human being over it. In 2017, it is not only socially acceptable, but is expected to happen. Smh.

Come on man. You are a grown ass man or woman, probably with a family and everything to lose, fighting over other grown men playing a game. How silly does that sound?! But I bet none of them hold any real ownership in "their team."

"Fans" are nothing more than batteries to help power the distraction system. Keep people entertained and you can do anything to them. They won't even notice when we take away their civil liberties and even their humanity.

Whatever you focus your energy on is what will manifest in your life. Time is the most valuable thing we have. It is an non-renewable resource. You can't get it back once spent.

In not so ancient times, the leaders of great empires, specifically the Roman's, knew the only way to maintain power was to keep the masses entertained and distracted from their shitty lives. That same logic reigns supreme still.

People spend more hours putting their energy into sports and other non-beneficial activity than into Self, family and community. You could use that same time doing research on how to become financially free and sovereign with cryptocurrency, cultivating relationships with innovative creators to build a better future for yourself and others or just learning more about who you are in order to become your best self.

It's hard to get free from the rat race when you are obsessed with maintaining the status quo, falling for the bait that keeps you mentally numb. There is now a transition happening. A change of guard. An age of transparency and information. Those who have been in power are losing their grip on their energy source (you) and they know it. The dollar has no actual value. Not for a long time, since the removal of the gold standard.

There are new ways transactions take place everyday, all done without one U.S dollar bill is being exchanged. American millennials are becoming rich from new tech and creative endeavors. This is becoming the new normal. Many people still can't, or do not want to, see that the future is already happening- because they too busy being distracted.

The structures setup in society, to distract us and take our energy, fuel something. Ever wonder what that might be? I simply refuse to give my energy to anything outside of myself; that doesn't align with my dreams and projections. There has never been a better time to innerstand who you are, take possession of your power and stand in it.

The point of this is simple. Just Think. Your intuition is your best guide in all you do. When you remove distractions, you can focus. When you focus, you see clearly. When you see clearly you move with purpose. Your purpose is your life path. YOU are the destination.

Everyone is getting a wake up call to freedom- mentally, physically, spiritually and emotionally. Only a few will answer! The new paradigm is here and sovereignty awaits, but only to those who are ready. Are you ready?

Cheers to the new world,
