Self-Made


“Self-Made” implies unplugging from the Matrix. Choosing the red pill. I believe Free Will is possible, it is just incredibly hard. Even then, the self of independent decisions exists within the system. Yogis call the Matrix “Maya” (the illusion of the reality of sensory experience and of the experienced qualities and attributes of oneself). Even if you see the Matrix, you have to start through acceptance. Changing things from where they are. Wealth Compounds. Real wealth comes when the story is bigger than you. When you become a smaller and smaller part of the picture. Through supply chains. Customers. Stakeholders. Through institution building. Articulating and voicing asks and offers. Solving other people’s problems. Through empowering others to make decisions you aren’t even aware of, or don’t have the capacity to understand. Taking the red pill is realising that it is not all about you. That wealth creation is about coordination and releasing potential. Self-Made is an illusion.
