Take my hand and let us see skies untouched by night. You are not alone. Never have, and never will be. Death is only the beginning, but our breath shall reign forever. *insert transendence pepe

You better be there. I'm coming alone from CA. I plan on meeting as many people as I can that day. Look for work on the 7th. We need to make sure we still have America!

If you feel guilty abt not looking for work while there, but really want to go....

Make it a point to make at least 3 contacts w ppl while there that may be good networking for future job. Also, go & come back allowing yourself to feel inspired to attack a job search rather than feel bad and down about it

Opportunity works in strange and unexpected ways. Maybe you’ll kill two birds with one stone (1) fall in and support fellow patriots and your country, (2) meet a patriot business owner or an employee of a good company looking for good people to hire In your area. You never know. Will be wild!

You will meet tons of like minded people there. Living 5 hours away leaves a strong possibility a lot of other people from your area will be there too!

... well, I'm in a nogunz area, so I can't exactly give advice. But if the only thing stopping you are the DC laws, then just leave everything at home and go.

You being there is important.

If you dont feel deeply in your heart that you want to go, then its okay not to go. May I suggest doing a bit of mindfulness to try and understand what is blocking you? There may be something deeper, and identifying it will help you.

Well first off...never make actionable decisions based solely on advice of internet strangers. I don't want to encourage or shame you into going. I don't know the specific details of your situation and you don't know mine. I will however provide some questions that might help you think it out and come to a conclusion of your own accord (a much better way to make this sort of decision).

  1. Do you want to go? Can you afford to go?
  2. How dire is your work situation in relation to your life currently? Are bills piling up? Is your fridge full?
  3. Is #2 severe enough to take priority over #1?
  4. Is #2 severe enough that the loss of 2 days would be unbearable? If so, gtfo off this board and figure that shit out NOW.
  5. Will you regret skipping out on going to DC? Will you regret going to DC? Which regret is more salvageable than the other?

Lastly I'll say this. There's a lot going on in this country. There will always be a lot going on in this country. 4-12 hours a day keeping up with it might make you smart on current events...but realize it's putting you behind on being prepared for future events. If you see and know the bullshit going on....then you no doubt understand that TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE. Feel blessed knowing you won't be blindsided in the future by ignorance.....but that blessing is all for nothing if you don't heed the warning of what you've discovered. You don't need to drop everything and focus on your financial situation 24/7.....but you need to make absolutely sure you're not squandering what precious time you have. 4-12/hrs a day while on unemployment is squandering it. You're in a great position (no debt) with no obligations to an employer. Use those unemployment free gibs to build your future in a way that puts you in control. It's a situation most will never be in. For those that are...most fail to comprehend the opportunity of it. DO NOT WASTE IT. If you don't waste it....then these sort of last minute, ancillary pro/con decisions won't even be a thought process you need to have.

I actually have quite a bit of real world experience in your area of expertise. First as a retail operations manager, then starting my own wholesale company (retail products), then manufacturing my own product and brand. We live in a special time (despite what people say). You have access to anyone and anything on Earth. For those inclined, tech is at a point where you can efficiently run a full scale business from top to bottom without having to hire or source somebody for every little task and nuance.

Product development/design/marketing is honestly the hardest piece of the pie due to the learning curve involved. I'd highly suggest expanding out on that and looking into/dabble with creating your own product/brand/whatever. If you're not sure where to start or what to create....just start peering through different wholesale catalogs of different companies. Research where/how they created their product, the ways they're presenting/offering it (b2b/b2c), and what it would take for you to do the same type of thing. Don't copy them obviously...but this will point you in a direction that will help spur on some ideas, fill in some blanks, and paint an overall bigger picture.

"This may sound too simple, but is great in consequence.

Until one is committed there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness.

Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too.

All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favour all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his way.

I have learned a great respect for one of Goethe’s couplets:

Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it."

– W.H. Murray, The Scottish Himalaya Expedition
