I already own a little farm, work three days a week, and just live a simple life or as simple as I can. Annoyingly I keep having new ideas on things I should do, the latest is to build a little sauna with the stack of timber I have. I couldn't go back too full time work now. I wouldn't be able to do an office job, it just wouldn't work I'm very hands on, I build my own very bespoke house learning as I went. I can't think of any books that have changed my life in a big way. 🤔
Great observations. Well said. You might add Thoreau’s On Walden Pond, whose early chapters describe how anyone can live on 18 hours work per week, and calls out the navvies laying sleepers for the trans continental railroad at that time for being themselves sleepers who gave up their freedom to mindless work.

Are you by yourself?
@@HildaDeerfox Yep, just myself and my wonderful Labrador Meg.
Just a note, please say the titles out loud with the subtitles for those who are only listening.
Thank you for your feedback, I will do!

That sounds like exactly the sort of thing I need to read
