Hi fellow Hiveians,

Today I wanted to talk about how we try to plan for things, and one of my planning elements is writing!

Preparing to Write

Writing is definitely one of my more enjoyable tasks during a day. I tend to try and do more of it when I am looking down the road to an upcoming trip!

We are taking a trip in a few weeks. Not exactly a trip that I was thinking we would be doing, but a trip nonetheless. It's nothing bad, but it's also nothing glamorous. Still though, it's to a place we've never been and we are looking forward to just getting out there and exploring a part of the country we've never been to before.

The midwest is certainly an interesting place, because a lot of people don't consider it as somewhere to go in reality. Most people think about California or Florida when they travel, but there are so many amazing places all around and they go unnoticed by a lot of people. Granted this place may not be amazing, we have to go and so we are going to make the most of it which I think is definitely the right mindset to be in.

With having to travel in a few weeks, one of the things I tend to prefer to do is load up on posts that I know I need to write, but for one motivational reason or another haven't gotten to that point yet. I'm glad that we don't travel THAT often which is a weird thing to say. I don't know if I could travel for a week at a time, every month because I would be worn out.

We've got a friend who is constantly traveling. Every other month they are going somewhere in a plane, and every other month besides that they are going somewhere else locally. I don't find that very entertaining, but that's just me. I enjoy exploring locally and within regions but doing it almost sparingly. Traveling is sadly quite expensive and I would rather not be in debt over that type of thing, and instead get rid of as much debt as possible.

The world we live in is definitely strange when it comes to these things. There is such a focus on debt that it's really insane that people don't see it for what it is: evil. I was listening to a podcast the other day and it really changed my perspective on it which was awesome. They talked about inflation that arises because too many people are saving money. The fiat system is based on constant spending and massive cycles of debt. When the economy is good and things are going really well in that regard, debt tends to get reduced quite drastically.

That means it is a cycle, which we can clearly see. Every 20 or 30 years, sometimes less, there is some fucking absurd event that sends the financial system in a ridiculous inflationary spiral. It creates all kinds of chaos but what I think a lot of people are missing, and this dude mentioned sort-of off-hand, is that it's because in order to keep the fiat debt system humming along nicely, it needs more debt. If people pay off that debt, then things don't work as intended so they have to intentionally inflict pain and suffering every decade and a half or two. It's really nasty stuff!

Well this post went a little sideways, but to reign it back in. With the upcoming travel that I am looking forward to, one of the things that I am doing over the next few weeks is to really spend more time to get things written which is an important aspect. When we go on vacation, even for something like this, I make sure that I don't spend time when we are there writing so that I can focus on my family and not as much on Hive outside of comments on other peoples posts, and those dropped on mine.

That posting spurt started a few days ago, and is going to continue well after this one here gets published!

What about you, do you try to plan for events like this by pre-gaming stuff? Let me know in the comments!
