 I don’t know where we are heading as a world. Sometimes a good outcome seems impossible.

But there are many good outcomes along the road we travel. Tons of meaning and joy. Endless opportunities to focus on good and appreciate it.

And in the end maybe that’s all there is to it. To craft our own small lives with intention and bringing good into our world by focusing on it. 
 It’s the journey that counts. 
 Good is the only acceptable outcome, dear Hodlonaut. 

You set a great example as to how it's possible to shape the future, instead of waiting for others to shape yours.

Earlier this week I proposed 

"7 powerful ideas for freedom fighting."

Three of these ideas in partucular came to my mind when I saw your post today.

Idea No. 6. No Freeriding
Never, ever be a freerider, someone who just piggybacks on others' fight for freedom.

Comment:
This is just a natural reflex for you, because you know a future with freedom and sovereignty is your own fight too, and just looking at others doing all the work clearly  isn't an option.

Idea No 5: Show Your Capability
Let the world see that you have power, and that you are willing to and capable of using it, especially in intellectual discussions and when others are under attack.

Comment:
You've shown that you have power, that you are capable of using it, and that you also have the strength to restrain yourself. A stoic viking, that's you, bro.

***
Idea No. 4. Copy, Copy, Copy 
Let others copy your behaviour and your ideas, and become a pro in copying others' behaviour and their ideas.

Comment:
You inspire others, because you have let yourself be inspired by others and you have transformed that inspiration into action. Just look at what happened a few years ago. "We're all Hodlonaut" happened. And it still happens. Every day.

***

To sum up:

No Freeriding. Check.

Show. Check.

Copy. Check.

Good outcome. 
Only acceptable option.

Thank you, brother.
