This is a guest post. And a VERY good one I might add...Enjoy.
Living a predictable life that someone else, especially society, has cut out for you can be tedious and not to mention downright boring. If you’re not already doing it, imagine doing the same things over and over again, day in and day out, all for the glory of being able to say that you belong. Sounds pathetic, doesn’t it?
Well, it is, if you really think about it. All our lives we have been taught to live according to the demands of what is normal and acceptable by the community that we live in. Although there have been instances when we are allowed or even encouraged to break free from the preset mold, in most cases, especially when it comes to personal life and career management, there is a set platform that everyone is expected to follow in order to succeed.
A pirate lifestyle is the exact opposite of everything that you have been used to ever since you stepped out of college and set out to look for that gainful employment that will grant you a steady paycheck. It is a revolutionary way of going through each of your everyday life. Revolutionary because while a lot of people have thought about it, only very few have had the guts to follow through. Maybe this is due to fear of the unknown or for apprehensions of living a life that only very few have ever tried to live. The reasons vary, but the fact remains that not everyone has had the opportunity to leave their everyday lives behind and map out their own racecourse in life.
If all you want is freedom from the hustle bustle of an everyday 9-5 job that can barely get you the things you want to really say you’re enjoying life, then the pirate lifestyle is just the one for you. It is a life that will liberate you of the boredom of a repetitive job, where you sit in front of a desk doing the same things again and again until you can execute them even with your eyes closed. If dressing up for work in regulation pants and neck tie is boring the hell out of you, then check out the pirate lifestyle, and never have to worry about such mundane stuff ever again.
No two pirate lifestyles are the same; it will vary from person to person. That is why it is called living the dream life that each of us has always wanted but never seem to get around to having. It is a lifestyle that is highly personal and tailor fitted to whatever tickles your fancy. With this lifestyle, there is no other captain but you and no one else can pinpoint the next destination but you and your whims. Sound’s great so far? Wait, for there’s definitely more.
There is nothing like being able to share your hopes and dreams with people who completely understand how you feel. Too many times we’ve talked to our friends and families and our ideas of a free and unencumbered life is met with laughter or even admonitions. With the pirate lifestyle, all expressions of a wonderful and adventurous lifestyle are welcome.
People may tell you that living the dream is not always everything. A pirate lifestyle will convince you of the exact opposite. If you were dying today, chances are, you will not be doing what you’re about to do. Instead you will be out there, seeking the fulfilment of your lifelong dreams, and that is what a pirate lifestyle is all about. It’s about living in the now, and not putting off what you can certainly do today. It does never have to regret what you were not able to accomplish simply because you were tied down by the many conventions of the society that you’ve been placed in. Most of all, it’s giving yourself the power to decide for yourself, today and not tomorrow.
