<p>This weekend I decided to return to <strong>nature reserve</strong> that I have visited to the past 3 years here on Long Island, NY. It&#8217;s called Wertheim and it&#8217;s located in the town of Mastic. There&#8217;s really nothing quite like going to the deep forest, a nature reserve, a marsh, or some sort of wild place that hasn&#8217;t been (too) altered by the hand of man. These places are quite magical and empowering. To walk amongst the deer, ducks, foxes, trees, fish, clouds, hawks, and the sweet spring air. How priceless these moments are. How refreshing.</p>
<p>Nature never ceases to show me her ways. When I step into a place like a nature reserve, I step into a sort of classroom where the lessons are infinite and boundless. A place where you can actually SEE life flowing. When you observe the ducks flying, the blades of grass cutting through the wind, and the fish jumping out of the water, you are witnessing nature&#8217;s stroke of the brush. A masterpiece in progress without an end.</p>
<p>So get out of the house, your routines, and fixed systems that you have chained yourself into&#8230; and wander into the forest for a stroll. You won&#8217;t regret it. You&#8217;ll feel nature&#8217;s healing powers almost instantly. And your worries will melt away into the nothingness.</p>

<p><strong>Stepping outside of all forms of control</strong>. To be fully, wholly, and truly out of control. <strong>Outside of the control</strong>. Of any control. Of all control. Could you image such a thing? Could you let go of all forms of belief. All religious sects. All forms of academic titles. Who has such courage and fortitude to end this absurdity?</p>
<p>Each time we call ourselves &#8220;spiritual&#8221; the &#8220;scientist&#8221; the &#8220;christian&#8221; the buddhist&#8221; the &#8220;raw foodist&#8221; etc.. We lock ourselves into a box. And we immediately imprison ourselves. Limit ourselves. Bind ourselves to something manufactured, controlled, and maintained by the so-called society.</p>
<p>So we have the christians fighting the scientists. The buddhists fighting the hindus. The blacks against the whites. The poor against the rich. The vegans against the meat-eaters. The smart against the dumb. All the while, the individual is destroyed, belittled, and marginalized. Controlled by outside forces that mold and shape you to fit their agendas. Their motives. THEIR ways of living. THEIR definitions of what&#8217;s right and wrong.</p>
<p>Do you really see this happening? To take any position in any system automatically renders you the slave. The follower. The machine. And you can never be free when following another person, sect, religion, system, what have you.</p>
<p><span id="more-1627"></span></p>
<p><strong>To be Alone is to be free</strong>. Alone from all outside systems. This is what freedom is.<strong> The letting go of all systems and methods</strong>&#8230; And there you are&#8230; calm&#8230;peaceful&#8230;and content with everything. Even with the misery and sadness. For you remain alone. Centered. And fortified.</p>

<p><strong>Society is an ugly thing</strong>. It&#8217;s just that simple. <strong>We all hate our jobs</strong>. We all <strong>hate going to school</strong>. And, yet, we continue to do these things. Society&#8217;s strong arm continues to trap us in these systems. The system of having to work hard in order to feed our kids. The system of having to be a perfect straight-A students in order to get a &#8220;good&#8221; job. The same job that we end up hating. Hating our bosses. Then ending up working &#8220;for the man&#8221; for the rest of our lives. Then by the age of 65 we&#8217;re sick and tired (literally) and have to, again, depend on society to feed and cloth and nurse us. </p>
<p>Is this something that is healthy for us? Is this something that truly brings us peace, joy, and happiness? Is this something that frees our minds? Society is the mechanism that destroys the individual. And yet, we continue to ever fuel it more and more&#8230; by conforming to it&#8230; by accepting it&#8230; by allowing it&#8230;</p>

It&#8217;s pretty easy to install, but can also be a bit technical for many people not accustomed to website installations. Once you have your wordpress-powered website up and running, then you&#8217;re ready to start sharing content &#8212; your PASSION with the world! Good luck!!</p>

<p>My Journey as an Entrepreneur Gets Better and Better and it goes. I never gave up &#8212; even after losing $13,000 on my first venture. I continue to take BIG risks&#8230; lose a lot of money&#8230; but I also continue to get BIG rewards and I am now able to earning a living from my Passions. Mostly by building websites around the things that I truly LOVE. And if I can do it, you can too.</p>

<p><strong>Using Wordpress to Earn Money with Your Passion </strong>is an amazing thing. It&#8217;s fun and easy, as long as your heart is in it. I earned 100% of my living in 2009 from 2 wordpress-based sites that were focused around things that I love. Wordpress is a great tool that allows you to naturally extend your passion into something that makes you extra money every month. Or, if you&#8217;re really serious, into something that allows you to <strong>quit your job</strong>.</p>

<p>How to Make a Living with Your Passion &#8212; Let me help you get started today: <a href="http://mindpetals.com/consulting">Visit my consultation page</a>.</p>
<p>Naturally extending your passion into a living is an amazing and fun way to earn money by doing what you love. It won&#8217;t even feel like &#8220;work&#8221; because you&#8217;ll be doing what makes your happy every single day &#8212; minus the stress, your boss, and all the fear of having to &#8220;work hard&#8221; for your money.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m a HUGE fan of using WORDPRESS (http://www.wordpress.org), a free content management system (CMS), to <strong>transform your passion into valuable content</strong> on the Internet, to be shared with the world.</p>
<p>Simply writing about, making videos, and / or doing podcasts on the Internet around your passion &#8212; whatever that may be &#8212; can help you earn, literally, as much money as you desire. From a few extra hundred dollars a month to help pay for some bills to over 100,000 dollars a year, to totally quit your job and do whatever you want to the rest of your life. That&#8217;s totally up to you.</p>
<p>For me, making just over $30,000 dollars in 2009 off of 2 websites that I built around my passions, was totally fine for me. It allowed me to travel the world, rent apartments, go out to fine restaurants, and not have to worry about paying my bills. Each year, I make a bit more and more off of these websites, using the REALLY simple techniques that I have developed over the years.</p>
<p>If don&#8217;t have the desire to learn about <strong>how to set up Wordpress</strong>, purchase a domain name (etc..) and get started with your websites, then schedule a consultation with me and I&#8217;ll be more than happy to get you started for $100.</p>
