Part-time work means that one can work short days or fewer full days. For
those who are pursuing other interests especially creative, fewer full days
is perhaps the better option, since one can concentrate full-time in the period
allotted non-income activity.
Cash payment and part-time work, limits the amount of income and outgo and thus also limits the affluence of the lifestyle. The poor lifestyle is a choice that
one takes pride in, and a dynamic that takes some skill and knowledge. When
the money is automatic, meaning a constant and steady well paying job,
one only need purchase every necessary skill from someone else. One needs only the skill of which the income is derived and nothing more. The Minimalist individual tends to make do for the self and others. The individual is less dependent on the system. The individual needs to learn and make their own
way. The Minimalist attitude is a political decision, to not support an excessively expansive system, which is detrimental to the health and well-being of the planet, the non-human elements of it, and which will include a massive detriment to humankind as well. One is not trying to get away with something for free or refusing to so their fair share. While one does not agree with the system,
one must also be appreciative of what others do, especially in so far as it
contributes to the essentials that all enjoy, such as food, water, housing,
utilities or roads.
The Minimalist operates on a different set of assumptions. The essence and primary dynamic of this lifestyle is low overhead, that equates to less time necessary to spend working for upkeep. This then can produce the necessity
of two states of consciousness, as the money making state and its accordant attitude and the non-financial state and the accordant attitude that it entails.
The money state of mind accords to that period the individual must devote
to earning money or upkeep. The individual chooses this lifestyle, and it is a choice for which one takes responsibility. Choosing it, one accepts its conditions
and is appreciative that they are able to pursue such a course in life. This means the individual accepts and adopts the standards of the agency of which they are in the employ, and does the best job they are capable.
