I'm writing you on Monday night, so I don't know who has won the elections... The US election in case you missed the news. But let me make some predictions:
And this can go on and on. If you depend on the winner being of your favorite party, you've got a problem bigger than it seems. You put your hopes on incompetent people that will deceive you. ​ There are 3 Es you need to live free:
​ This is achieved with good mentors that has followed the path you want to follow. Also with courses, seminars of the things you're interested.
