Most people fall into two categories. Either they have no idea what they were meant to do… or they know exactly what it is and they’re too scared to do it. And I’m not judging. I’m just narrating the documentary.

Because life has a way of slowly negotiating your dreams down. You start out wanting to be an astronaut, and before you know it, you’re arguing with a printer at work like it’s a hostile witness.

There’s an old saying: if you don’t know you’re in the game, you’re being played.

And folks… a whole lot of people are being played.

They’re not even players in their own story. They’re extras. Background characters. The person walking behind the main character holding a cup of coffee, hoping not to spill it on the plot.

Meanwhile, something else is writing the script.

The culture tells them what to think. The media tells them what to care about. The government tells them what’s “good for them,” which historically has been about as reliable as a weather forecast in a hurricane.

Think about it. Your diet, your education, your job, your beliefs… half of it isn’t even yours. It’s assigned. Like a group project you didn’t sign up for, but now you’re responsible for the grade.

And while you’re trying to figure it all out, life keeps coming at you like a bill collector with a megaphone.

Now, life is already tough. It doesn’t need help. But government? Government doesn’t just get in the way like an accident on the freeway. Government is the guy who set up the cones, redirected traffic, and then started charging tolls for the inconvenience.

They innovate in ways Silicon Valley can only dream of… just not the kind of innovation you want.
