Not a crazy thought —

What if you could never leave your own country ever again? Could you still live a happy, meaningful, hopeful, optimistic and great life?

The ancient greeks didn’t have any interest in traveling

Our new form of flexing your wealth and social class is travel. But what if we could never travel again? Could we still live a happy and meaningful life?

A future with closed borders?

Think the film ‘Children of Men‘. This dystopia of the future with closed borders. It ain’t impossible based on the state of the world right now.

Can we live a MORE meaningful life WITHOUT travel?

The interesting thing for myself:

Ever since everything is closed, I am actually MORE creatively productive and have been able to GENERATE MORE!

Why? So much of modern capitalism and consumerism is a distraction.

For example:

1. Coffee shops are distractions: Better to just work from your nice home apartment.
2. Better to cook your food at home. You can have more hearty meals, more meat, and get more “gains” [gain more muscle]
3. Archimedes lever: Stay in one spot, and you can move the world!
