It Will Give You Goosebumps - Alan Watts On The Eternal Now
{% endembed %}

In an ideal society, we don't need a job to survive, instead, we have a right to choose either to simply live, to enjoy being alive, or we can choose to DO more than that.

We can all try to serve humanity without contracts, without placing money first and people second.

Everyone offers their services, favors, or work and some of us just don't think about money when we do it because we don't do it for money.

We all want to DO favors for friends and people we love and it's ok to expect something in return when your objective is altruistic. But what we expect in return doesn't have to be money. Services are about doing things for ourselves and others.

*Working for money instead of ourselves is just like slavery, but with extra steps.*

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.gratitudetoken.world/whitepaper/our-solutions/do/dont-work-for-money-work-for-each-other.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
