a bum does not have his shit together.
A working person does. If u can provide for yourself in some way that doesnt bum off others, than u got your life together.
Also, people with some kind of realistic goals or life plans has their shit together as they are trying to achieve something important to them.

Paying your own way honestly
rather ambiguous, but i'd tend to agree with the figurative notion here. if you can recompense someone for helping do something, that's the proper way to live.
It has to be vague. If you run a business by exploiting your workers, the public or the ecosystem, that isnt an honest living. Its a big subject on its own, so I left it vague.
payment has the connotation regarding monetary value. i'd prefer the term recompense, as it just simply states that one has to have some reciprocation in their word and deed, when regarding the world around them, including (but not embraced by) people.

I dont see it that way, you can have your situation levelled out living in a shack in the woods if thats really what you want to do. Being personal goals I understand your priorities, but I dont think Akira is being disingenuous.
people should take a note from the paleo-psychology of man, and learn how to function without the systems that provide for them- but they can't. so hence human's are prone to dissatisfaction and disease of the mind.
to put it bluntly.
and people love to assert their dominion over that which they are dissatisfied with, which leads to war...of the senses, of emotions, and of weaponry.
insomnia sucks.

everything we do is subjective. all language/communication is subjective. all understanding is based in and around subjectivity. so, by your conviction, i'd say that all these things are half-baked notions.
which is why having your shit together is simpler than you claim.

If you're in your teens--if you have a job, any job, doesn't matter what it is whether you are a cashier or hostess or whatever, and you graduated high school, then you have your shit together.
If you're in your 20's--if you have a job, and/or go to college, pay all your bills on time, and don't live with your parents, even if it's with roommates, then you have your shit together.
If you're only working part-time at Denny's and don't have health insurance and you're couch surfing at your friend's pad at age 27, then you don't have your shit together. That's good and fine to do if you're 19 or 20, but by the time you're 25 you should really be taking steps to make your life better and be a responsible human.
If you're in your 30's--if you have your own apartment or townhouse or home, have an impressive resume and decently-paying career, and you have a good credit score, then you have your shit together.
Sadly I still see many people even in their mid-30's still living with roommates. It's an unfortunate reality given the horrendous economic situation, but that's why I consider somebody in their 30's who owns their own mortgage or at least their own apartment or condo or something to be particularly "well put together," moreso than the average person.

Its interesting how our answers reflect our own needs, since its basically a subjective question.
On that note, I also have to be in good shape, meditating regularly and satisfied with my musical repertoire.
Edit: Few people would meet my musical or meditative standards, theyre subjective, so if I were to project those standards as an expectation, everyone would fall short in some area. Its one reason I dont take peoples expectations seriously, because they dont meet mine, so its necessary to let things ride past a certain point.

there ya go. same here, save the shape and meditation. i don't meditate but i have been concentrating on the spiritual-side of things, nonetheless- so that's good. my health has been neglected though...i am not really feeling the requisite proposition as demonstrable at the moment- been having headaches. probably too much caffeine.
Quote:
and don't live with your parents
silly notion. everyone should try to live with their parents and their parents should try to be anything more than selfish pieces of shit about it.
the planet is overpopulated and the spread of this makes things more difficult everyday, in terms of feeding, clothing, and having work for people to survive.
funny that, considering most of you just insist that if you're not working you must be some kind of vestige of an inactive torso that wriggles around like a shaking quark; quantum- both physical and sometimes not, and then sometimes just a series of mechanistic actions with no known cause, but at least you can feel something- and then sometimes not.

There is absolutely no way I would think that I had my life together if I was a bum. Literally all I would probably think about all day is what a train wreck I am, and how on earth did I ever manage to get here in this position.

People do live with their parents... pretty much for the first 20 years of their lives. It's important for children to spread their wings and fly away and start living their own lives at some point in their lives.
Now if you want to do it at age 25 instead of age 20, then that's perfectly fine, as some people mature at faster rates than others.
But eventually children need to leave the nest, in order to gain independence and develop the skills necessary for survival and self-reliance.

What does overpopulation of the planet have to do with moving out of your parent's house? It's not like there's a shortage in the real estate market.

Non-profit or volunteer work is perfectly acceptable and in fact far more admirable than working. Being a stay-at-home parent is also perfectly acceptable, you're in charge of raising a human being and taking care of the household chores. Being a university or grad school student is also acceptable, you're studying and attending classes.
Everything that I just listed, that's all work. Unpaid work is still work.
But otherwise, if you're not doing either of these things, then what exactly are you doing in your free time?

When I said "bum," I'm literally talking about a homeless person.
And yes, you should feel shame if you're in your 30's and still unemployed and living with your parents and have absolutely no plans on building your life. Unless you have a disability or some other serious excuse, you should be embarrassed.

people want to assume (make-believe) that they're better than they are -- it's funny.
i can talk shit too...watch...if you've ever shot drugs into your vaglips, you're a failure at life and have hit new lows in human depravity...same if you've rubbed menstrual blood any where as a form of expression or sexuality.
