How to try to follow the STO path in this situation

[Tuulikki]

I think it is very important that you are thinking about this situation deeply and not just going ahead with making something which could be used in a detrimental situation such as a war. I don't suppose it has crossed the minds of many of your work colleagues. Your job and salary presumably protects yourself and your family and is therefore a necessity (I am making an assumption here). Also, as others have said previously, those two items do not necessarily mean they are going to be used in an aggressive way. It is similar to a situation I had when I was asked about volunteering to join the covid death squad in administering the death shots. That would be an absolute no-no for everyone here I think. Your situation is much more subtle and I wish you well with dealing with it.

It is an opportunity to have a good lesson you can learn there now. I see also that STO oriented people are more and more entrapped into STS intentional activities within even desirable jobs for the STO orientation, as right now all seems to be under rapid assimilation by STS forces, so even for us who are blessed to be on our own path in all aspects of our life, even us are getting tasks and traps form the outer world that are challenging our STO efforts, so I will see that as a personal challenge of strengthening your mind focus and emotinal balancing on not to slip back into STS under any circumstances.

I find out that apart from "STS supporting jobs", children are the biggest challenge as they are also taking some parts in the social programming in more or less agreeable conditions, no matter if we their parents are on the STO path, they might never be. So for me, the particularly hard challenge in these 2 years was not to impose my authority on them to force them covertly to please me into STO orientations. But also for me, it was challenging, as I lost all the planned and contracted jobs as the pandemic started, so I faced the chalenge not to fall under parents' unconditional love and responsibility I had as they all are dependent only on my job and income. It was for me big challenge how not to use it as an excuse for me to accept some nonacceptable jobs or circumstances to get back to STS mood if that will be easier for me at that moment. And every time I stood up with my firm decision to go the hardest way I got more energy and confidence to make it best possible STO way ... so even the most dream jobs can have the strongest STS influences on the world around us if we don't take care on our intention and reason for what and how to do them ... so for you hardest way seams the challenge to stay there and not to ad on more to STS energies unless you have realistic options to make better opportunities and find a better job without hurting those who are dependent on your income.

@hollenoaea I've been dancing around how to ask about this subject for a while.

It was for me big challenge how not to use it as an excuse for me to accept some nonacceptable jobs or circumstances to get back to STS mood if that will be easier for me at that moment

I thank you for bringing up this point. It seems to me the elephant in the room. This taps into the whole conundrum we all find ourselves in : having to work jobs we despise just to get by and support our family.

so even the most dream jobs can have the strongest STS influences on the world around us

Would a "dream job" be to help people for minimum wage ?

I guess for me the key word would be "acceptance" - this is an STS world, with STS rules in place. I struggle with this too, but I guess we all have to just go along with the "game"

I find out that apart from "STS supporting jobs", children are the biggest challenge as they are also taking some parts in the social programming in more or less agreeable conditions, no matter if we their parents are on the STO path, they might never be

I worried for my babies a lot on this for a long time, but I have found that if you point out the errors and selfishness of behaviours they see and ask about they do actually listen, and take it on board.

I thought "dream jobs" like for example in my case people assume that artists who live from their art have a "dream job" haha what is actually most of the time a full nightmare as we are all the time on the edge of our own Ego + trillions of Egos around us that are challenging our Edo and will to be STO oriented as much as possible in that wild predatory jungle ...

Also, I am not truly going around looking to do jobs that are helping anyone in the sense of help as a primary function, but I am taking care that overal work has creative and growth energies for all involved, even the ugliest predators I have to deal with,I see them as a lesson for me not to play as they do. I am helping even to my kids only if I am directly asked in line of the help they want, but only if I can and if that way is also acceptable for me too.

Also "minimum wage" is what? If that is what just feeds someone's belly and still makes that person feel miserable and just fit to continue to blame the world around for inner misery, it is a very tricky matter. I find out through my 30 years of work that those who are ok with the "minimal" and who are not willing to always challenge their maximum and in return to get that maximum not just in money terms, those people are usually those who after they feed the belly simply amplify their STS desires.

I guess for me the key word would be "acceptance" - this is an STS world, with STS rules in place. I struggle with this too, but I guess we all have to just go along with the "game"

Ooo kids gave me a very hard time since I took this path. NOt that much job, as so far I am truly blessed to get always the most STO version of opportunities to express my talents and give to the world the best creation. But for a long time, I felt a big guilt trip why I ever had children in this world. How irresponsible it was how could I live to endure watching the predators abusing them and they are not even seeing what is wrong etc .. all those selfish thoughts that parent is the only one who knows what is best for them ... but as they grow up I realize they are each their own spirits and automatons, and even if they think what society thinks, but their approach to life and work and society in a practical way is very much similar to mine, as that is the environment they are surrounded with most of their time ... and even if we now disagree in 70% of the stuff we are not conflicting what is a good example for them in general ... and as they approached all maturity this year, yesterday on lunch I told them clearly that I am not willing anymore to get back to certain jobs and relations from the past that truly made me suffer too much, and I don't think my energy is worth there anymore, as they can now work for themself. So I prepared also myself that way for the transitional phase and if I will not be able to secure all we need now for all of us, due to my will to learn and research more as a new world is approaching, they need to be aware they have to start to develop independence from me too, and that maybe our paths can separate too.

I've cooled off a bit these past few days.
I've read your feedback and advice and thank you to everyone commenting.
Thanks to the perspective that has now opened up for me, I know that working where I do and in the position of production director I have a big influence on how my subordinates are doing.
I have to tell you that I have gotten into arguments with my employer quite often in defense of my people. This was mainly about the wages they were entitled to, but also about the working conditions... I have certain traits that do not always work out for me personally. I always stand up when someone is hurt and I hate aggression. Because of this I sometimes get between "Nazgul and his food".
I think that should be the main job in this company. Working for the people and the company at the same time.
And bulletproof vests and boots are not tanks.

But when I get some good job offer in residential finishing that's what I love to do.

Apropos of children as you mentioned, I think that as conscious individuals we should know that nothing happens by chance and our children are not with us by chance either. We have a responsibility to pass on our knowledge to them. Of course, nothing by force. Not all of them will be ready for it at any time and they need individual attention.
I used to have a problem with this because I noticed that maybe I told them about penny things too early. I suggested readings, articles.
Now both my daughters are grown up and one day the older one Kamila said that thanks to the knowledge they have they understand what's going on now.
