If you had all the money and all the time in the world, what would you do? I asked that of two people yesterday, both in their 20’s. They’re response? An awkward silence. They hadn’t thought that far. Few people realize the immediacy of freedom. They’ve been chasing the illusion of money and time. It goes something like this, “When I get some time and money, then…”
I want to know about the “then” part! Take me there, now.
There’s no vision after money and time are stockpiled. Proverbs state, “Where there is no vision, the people perish.” Time and money are visualized as goals. The eye is on an unattainable ‘prize’ – resources, second place. Re-sources – re, secondary. What’s primary?
We have this strange illusion that clearing the schedule is what it would take – gaining large swaths of time to tackle those “big” projects. Stockpiling the bank is what it would take – stashing large swaths of cash to tackle those “big” goals that always are “one day.”
What if I told you that you need nothing? So few of us realize this slice of freedom now. It’s just before the illusion of resources as prized. It’s beyond fear. It’s called letting go of the prize. Stepping into the abyss. But very few people live as if they have all the time and money in the world. Those who understand freedom manage extraordinary feats of imagination.
What could I say to help you realize freedom is foreseeing resources? Freedom is beyond the world of words. Existence is transcendence. Wealth is primacy. If you can imagine having all the money in the world and all the time in the world, you would realize that’s all it takes.
Could freedom be as simple as living imaginatively? Yes. But resources seem to be in the way.
