Long term vs short term. Plenty of people don't have long term goals, because they're stuck in the short term: gotta make rent, buy groceries, get gas. Add some young kids in the mix, and you're thinking of survival. Living without goals, but still living!!
Is it bad just to hold on? No, because things clear up one day. I'm (age redacted) and things literally cleared up for me 9 days ago. So I broke out all my wish lists that I wrote in frustration over the last XX years, and I'm going to make them happen now. And then make my own goals, which I've never thought about. If you hang in there, maybe you'll reach this point too. It feels AWESOME.
I agree. I am in no way trying to discourage you either brother. Simply seeking to understand better and how I do that is ask questions. So hope none of my comments today are coming off that way. Prayer Garden is meant to bring together the body and it requires me learning why people think the way they do. So it's all asked in love
In China its called lying flat, just scraping by working just enough... Many people in many countries are doing that. Here in Nashville the illegals building the skyscrapers at 20 bucks an hour. Often cash, often no 1.5 for overtime.
I believe that the correct name of this philosophy is (Slacker)
hahahaha
LOL
They promote this through movies. Remember all the lovable slacker movies in the 80s and 90s? Pauli Shore made a career out of this.

Very cool :)
I'm pretty sure that setting goals is a White Supremacist thing.
What was Jesus Christ's goal? Seek first the kingdom of God?
When you seek the kingdom Jesus begins to put you to work imo
Sure, watch that you're following Jesus Christ, and not man's ideas of how you should be working. Then you'd be working for the wrong man.
I like what you're doing, I certainly don't discourage it.
