One thing I wish I understood when I started hatesteading was "repurposing"
Being born in the consumer age led me to believe that you had to consume and purchase specific items to achieve goals. It was a minefield of purchases of products and services to get you caught in a loop, where you stay till death.
When I started doing more, I started being more. When I was more I started thinking clearer, with clarity came truth.
Everything we have we compartmentalize, if it's work shit it stays at work if it's home shit it stays at home if it's wignat shit it stays in wignat spheres.
Everything gets put into something, we use containers endlessly and not just metaphysically, we do it literally also.
The array of bags in the picture I use for everything from storing produce, protecting from insects and predators, filtering, cheese making, booze making, fruit preserves making, and occasionally I even carry shit in them!
Learn not to discard, learn to view items as multi or ulti purpose and stop the cycle
