Work Smarter Not Harder
Surviving is all about leverage. I watched so many people work themselves to death and who died in their 20s, 30s or early 40s during the 1950s. The other problem is that it wasn't safe to work a lot of places so people died also like flies in unsafe working conditions. In some ways it might have been more dangerous to work some places than going to World War II and fighting on the front lines.
So, it isn't where you work or who you work for, it is choosing some place to work that won't put you in an early grave more than anything else. If you are not smart about how you work you soon might be either dead or maimed on jobs.
So, unless you learn to work smarter more than working harder your life may soon be over (and for what?)
So, whenever I worked some place that wasn't safe I got out of there as soon as I could to work somewhere else. So, the less time I spent working someplace not safe the more time I could still be alive.
When you are young sometimes like I was I felt sort of immortal like many young men do. However, this isn't really true even though you might feel like it is especially until you are about 30 years old or 40 years old.
So, you might take many many risks like I did too on jobs especially under age 25. But, I was also riding motorcycles across the desert and rock climbing with thousands of feet of exposure. So, there was a tendency to sort of "laugh at death" before I was 25 which also had to do with some suicidal thoughts that I was dealing with then too. And this is not uncommon among young men under 25 years of age either.
So, valuing your own life enough not to take jobs that could kill or maim you is part of the way you stay alive to live to be 30.
So, "Work Smarter Not Harder" is actually how people live to be an old age.
