The ultimate anti slave move is to have dual citizenship. Preferably in two disparate economies where you can make money in the rich one while living primarily in the "poor" one.

Im feeling generous because its my birthday.

Figure out a skill or something you want to get better at and develop a 90 day plan. It all starts with research and planning. You're gonna spend 90 days doing something and trying to improve as much as possible you better spend some time figuring out how, i usually devote an entire day just to planning it out with what ill do each day and list deadlines for tasks, the latter is important as it gives you a bit of pressure to get something done.

Earlier this year i wanted to get better at music and 3d design because im proper trash at both, ive never been good at either but i never put the time in to get better. I decided to combine both and make a music video. I'm still trash by my standards but if i compare myself now to back then, i've improved so much and that's all that matters.

If you have a measurement for your performance then it makes tracking your progress much better, in my example i just went by how i felt, its suboptimal but its just a hobby, i dont have to take it extremely seriously.

The main thing is be consistent and be positive, you will fail, probably a lot but it doesnt matter, just learn from it. My fucking god anons, ive failed so fucking much in my life haha but i never stopped even though sometimes it hurts.

Every night before you go to sleep ask yourself, "Have i done enough today to achieve my goals and what can i do tomorrow to be better", you should never answer, "I've done enough" Its a fallacy, you can never do enough, you can always get better regardless of where you start.

Lastly, depending on what you do, you might not get the reward you think you deserve. A lot of my frens omega made it financially and i was lagging behind for a long time despite trying my best, you will have your time, just keep going.
