The night mode is pretty slick, and you did an outstanding job editing specifically for it. I'll have to keep it in mind for my future posts too! Hey, at least the improvements to the platform keep coming, and now a lot of the instability issues of the recent past seem to have been resolved. That's great news!

I must be a slow reader, for it took me longer than it was supposed to take. haha

It's a struggle. By struggle I mean deciding where to put my limited time. What deserves my effort the most? Will this activity or that activity better serve my ultimate objectives? It's always difficult to know for sure how to answer. I know I love to write, but lately I've not been writing. I've been distracted and thinking instead though.

You mentioned that lots of people have tons of extra time. That is very true. I often get to post from work. That's a huge help since I can double dip. As long as my work is done here though, I end up with free time to write, read, or study. Not everyone is so fortunate. Most people have extremely limited time, and I don't blame them.

It's more than that too. How we spend our time is an investment. Will what we are doing pay off in the future for ourselves, for our loved ones, or for the rest of humanity? Again, it's always difficult to make that decision, and I stray from the path often. I'll always get back to the grind, but I'll admit that I stray.

The technical problems the site has had recently has been my major reason to stay away. I've still been engaging new people that show promise when I have the time to go through the #introducemyself posts, but that people watching activity of mine is not always a very high priority. Usually I have a lot of other way more important things to do be doing.

I've also been lurking and engaging in other people's posts. I went camping recently too where there was no Internet activity at all. There are so people who are waiting on a post from me about child kidnapping too, and I've found that to be a difficult topic to write about. It is dark and I don't do dark topics. It depresses me, so why would anyone want to read it? Therefore, I'm struggling to put the outline together in a way that will benefit people without dragging them down emotionally. It needs to be written though, so I'll eventually get to it.

This post also reminded me of another more easily put together post about human specialization. Elon Musk was talking about it recently in an interview. Well, the interview is pretty old, and he didn't specifically mention human specialization. He did however discuss the importance of humans having objectives that seem impossible. Be realistic and have goals that you can reach to pay the bills along the way, but also have long term "super" goals that seem like science fiction at the moment.

Doing that in your life and on a larger scale as a species is key to success.

It cannot be done without specialization, and specialization takes countless years of dedication to further foundation skills into specialized ones. A good example is taking a high school math student and turning them into a person who can calculate, accurately, launch trajectories, flight paths, and orbits to make space flight a reality. The person literally takes science fiction and turns it into the future through skill advancement and collaboration with others doing the same.

Also, like you said, we never know when a single and seemingly minor thing we do changes another person's life in a massive way. A little baby step by us may set off a marathon for another person or many people. That's one of the differences between us Liberty Professionals and so many others too. We keep driving forward regardless of the barriers. It's also part of the warrior ethos I posted about in the past (a post that made pennies by the way... lol).

We are creators. Every human has the capacity to be a creator, but so few develop the ability. They are not living to their full potential, and that's a real shame. The more people driving forward and living, as best as they can with setbacks and struggles along the way, are the ones that reach specialization. With that specialization, the world is changed for the better for everyone. It's a grand idea that needs further investigation.

You "get it" already though, and that's one reason we're friends. I'm thankful for you and your creativity, @grow-pro. We are in this struggle together, and our endeavors may not seem worth much for the moment. They are baby steps towards a grand future for our children and theirs however!
