Living a life without guilt and filled with purpose is the core of who I am and what I strive for every day. So, let's delve into these two crucial parts.
No Guilt Lifestyle
For me, a guilt-free life starts with consciousness and empathy. I see the beauty, value, and sentience in animals, and I cannot ignore it. I equate love for household pets with love for all animals. It's an all-encompassing affection and respect.
Over the centuries, we've evolved beyond human slavery. It's now time to transcend the bondage of animals. I know some people argue against veganism for health reasons, but I believe in our intellect and ingenuity. We can figure out a way to achieve peak performance with vegan diets, and we're probably close to commercializing them further.
I can't live a life that contributes to the suffering and enslavement of creatures capable of feeling pain, love, and horror. It's simply against my core beliefs.
I also look at certain vices like alcohol and porn as crutches. These vices may force me to objectify others or become a sign of personal weakness, and that's something I consciously avoid. Living without guilt means shedding these layers, focusing on consciousness, and nurturing compassion.
A Self-Evidently Meaningful Life
Now, let's explore what it means to lead a meaningful life.
For me, it's about contributing to or leading projects that I deeply believe are pushing humanity in a positive direction. It could be building something successful on my own or driving others' projects forward. Either way, the goal is a golden age for humanity where sustainability and flourishing opportunities are within everyone's reach.
Beyond work, a meaningful life for me includes having the relational life of my dreams. I envision having a family, being a loving husband, a great father, and creating a nurturing environment.
Conclusion
Living without guilt and building a meaningful life isn't just a philosophy; it's a daily practice. It involves recognizing the equality and beauty in all living creatures, avoiding the pitfalls of vices, and pursuing goals that align with my vision for a better world.
Whether it's my commitment to veganism, my work with ambitious leaders and companies, or my dreams for a family, every aspect of my life is carefully chosen to align with these principles. By living a life I'm proud of, I ensure that each day is not only guilt-free but also filled with purpose and meaning.
