Wild Minds Weekly: How Can You Find Fulfillment?

Hello beautiful people,

Before we get started:

You guys will know we've been having issues with some you not being able to access the website.

It turns out, that's because a few security companies have blacklisted us, so some internet providers are stopping their customers from accessing it, because they know what's best for you. 👎

We're considering changing our domain as a long-term solution, so stay tuned for updates on that because that will be a big job moving all of our stuff over. But in the meantime, I've found that a VPN allows me to access it unrestricted, although at least two people have said that hasn't worked for them.

On to today's topic 👇

If you asked a child in the street what they wanted to be when they grow up, they wouldn't say a farmer or a teacher. They might say doctor, but many of the ones that say that do so because they know it pays well.

But the three most fulfilling professions, according to Simon Squibb's book "What's Your Dream?", in order, are:

1. Farming
2. Teaching
3. Healthcare

Now if you asked "Which professions make the most money?", these would probably be close to the bottom of the list (unless you're a doctor).

But even though they aren't particularly well-rewarded (yet), there's a reason they're so fulfilling.

It's because they have purpose.

Their purpose is:

1. Feeding people
2. Enriching people's minds
3. Caring for people

These jobs are spiritually rewarding by nature, it's just modern society that has made them undesirable.

Now why is this a problem?

Because it means most people spend their lives pursuing money, and they end up deeply unfulfilled because their jobs feel purposeless.

People make money in all sorts of ways.

TikTokers get paid thousands to sell you endocrine-disrupting products that you don't need.

Quantitative traders make hundreds of thousands a year moving imaginary numbers around (stocks) to make rich people richer.

Football players get paid millions a year to kick a ball up and down a field (with great skill it has to be said).

For what?

Is that really what the world needs more of?

Is that really where money should be flowing?

I don't think so, and you probably don't either.

Now, many people believe money is the root of all evil, they think we'd be better off without it, trading and bartering amongst ourselves.

Here's why I disagree:

1. That would be hugely inconvenient to barter all the time - maybe I don't want to exchange my shovel for your 5 chickens, I don't need 5 chickens right at this moment.
2. That perspective has the wrong idea about money. Money isn't inherently bad. Money is a measure of value.

When you earn money, it means someone has deemed something that you've done or produced valuable enough to give you money (which they have usually worked to earn).

Yes, a desire for money can corrupt. But fundamentally, making money should mean that you're doing something other people find valuable.

That's why more of it should be flowing to small-scale family-owned farms, teachers, and healthcare professionals (that genuinely want you to be healthy).

Everybody needs to eat.

Yet, farmers are financially struggling, and people are nutritionally starved. Backwards, isn't it?

There is a solution, the only way forward that I can see.

There are two things every human needs: good health, and purpose.

This provides the answer to both:

Communities built around small-scale regenerative agriculture are the future.

Here's why I think so:

It won't be automated. Regenerative farming is labour intensive and if you tried to automate it, you'd only be blasting your animals with EMFs.

It produces nutrient-dense food that actually nourishes your body, that a community can not only survive off, but thrive on.

It creates relationships. It's small-scale and family-led by nature, not a faceless organisation.

It builds resilience. Whoever controls your food, controls you. A community supported farm has your best interests.

So the way I see it, you have two options:

1. Start a small-scale farm (we can help you do this).
2. Support one with your skills, buying their produce, or joining their community.

The time is now.

To your freedom and independence,

Rob

PS.

If you do want to start a small-scale farm and build independence for yourself and your community, Billy's put together a free video to get you started.
