The system is robbing you... for your protection


I don’t know if you’ve ever stopped to think about it, but the system isn’t designed for you to thrive.

It’s designed for you to depend on it.

On a salary someone else pays you.
On the promise of a pension.
On kleptocratic politicians squeezing you “for your own good.”

Basically, you’re the main character in a joke that isn’t funny.

Because if you depend, you don’t decide.

Yes… you don’t decide even if you vote…

And, if you don’t decide, you don’t disrupt.

​
And if you don’t disrupt, you’re the perfect piece on their board.

The problem starts when you begin asking questions:
• Why did school never teach me how to make money?
• Why do they take half of what I earn?
• Why are "the bad guys" always "the rich ones"?

Well…

When you start asking those kinds of questions, you begin to see the world differently.

Because the day you understand how money works, you stop swallowing the nonsense they’ve been selling you.

You stop believing the lie that says, “Go to university, study, and you’ll get a good job.”
You stop buying into the myth that “If you work hard, things will eventually get better.”

Instead, you start moving. You start doing things.

You start taking control of your money (and your life).
You start protecting what’s yours.

And suddenly, you realize something huge:

The power was never in them.
It was always in you.

Yes, in you.

To stop depending.
To stop asking for permission.
To stop being just another pawn in a system designed to keep you exactly where you are.

To take control.

To stop being just the one who foots the bill.

To start playing to win.

Losing? No.
Settling for a draw? Not an option.
Winning? That’s the only way forward.

And your first step could start right here.

Too many products. Too many versions. Too much confusion. And the CEO comes back. He walks into a product meeting. Engineers proud. Slides prepared. Roadmaps built. He listens. And listens. And listens. Then he walks to the whiteboard. Draws a simple 2x2 grid. Consumer / Pro. Desktop / Portable. “That’s it,” he says. Everything else? Gone. Not optimized. Not restructured. Killed. In one meeting, he cut roughly 70% of the product line. Imagine the room. Years of work. Teams built around those...

Anything that is alive is in a continual state of change and movement. The moment that you rest, thinking that you have attained the level you desire, a part of your mind enters a phase of decay. You lose your hard-earned creativity and others begin to sense it. This is a power and intelligence that must be continually renewed, or it will die ---- Robert Greene If you ever wonder what I’m doing at 10pm in New Zealand, just when I’m writing this email… You’ve got your answer. I said many times...

According to constraint theory, the greatest human bottleneck is attention. Yes. Our attention is our most finite resource. Even more finite and valuable than our time. Now, think about why Meta is so valuable. And Elon wanted X. And so on… Indeed, the quality and depth of our attention determines the quality of our time. Most people’s attention is scattered, tugged, and seemingly never right here and right now. The rich know this well. In the US, the top 1% don’t allow kids to interact with...
