I Ching: 48 - The Well
Basically, the law of marginal utility.
Address first what is most pressing, and then progressively as resources permit, to build capital at the foundation, whereupon you may progressively build.
- I need a solution to my housing situation.
I am paying 250BGN/month, the hot water system does not work, there is no washing machine, I have no bed linen, my computer workstation is a couch with a board instead of a cushion, and a coffee table instead of a desk. I only even have a hotplate to cook with because I bought one. A washing machine was outside my budget, and yes, I made very bad judgement ploughing too much into speculative gains with bitcoin. Hence I have not accumulated sufficient basic necessities. This is a constant distraction and frustration. I live too far from the centre of town. And I can't get a stupendously cheap, fast internet connection at this address either. - Making money.
Steem rewards have really helped me dodge the absolute bottom since after 2 weeks getting familiar with the platform. I have debts that should be repaid soon, which will see me paid up to the end of the month. But I am just not quite getting what I need to do to gain enough, that I can jump over the big obstacle in my path. - Not constantly consoling myself...
The insurmountable obstacles, and the low cost of stupifying beverages, is not helping either. Not my digestive system, and not my ability to think clearly and systematically. I have a congenital impairment to my concentration, I still have neither found the cause, comprehensively and with certainty, nor any remedy that works well enough to allow myself to make my thought processes productive to actually implementing any steps towards a solution. I am losing money to both alcohol and tobacco consumption, and gaining nothing in return except a little elimination of temporary discomforts, ones that can completely immobilise my motivation and morale.
