Feeling overwhelmed by all the world’s problems? Will Nemo wants you to know it’s possible to become more optimistic. His Substack page unites young entrepreneurs looking for a brighter future and teaches them how to create one using the principles of Taoism.
Remember the words of philosopher Jiddu Krishnamurti: "It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society."
We humans imbibe our society's culture like fish swimming in water - it's all around us, but most of the time we hardly even notice, instead taking it in like the air we breathe. So, developing an explicit, critical awareness of our culture seems to be one of the hardest things we humans can do. But it's vitally important that we do - especially if the culture we're imbibing is toxic.
But, once you do develop that critical awareness, life may seem to get harder, not easier. After all, how do you explain to family and friends that we've been living in a “matrix” since at least 1945? Or how, ever since the dollar came off the gold standard in 1971, our money system has become just debt backed by nothing? Our money system and how our understanding of the past impacts our present and future are vitally important issues, but it seems like some people just keep blindly swimming, no matter how much you try to explain.
Will Nemo has been on this journey himself and wants to bring the lessons he's learned to a wider audience via this Substack page. It just might become your go-to educational and inspirational resource for advice on entrepreneurship and financial and lifestyle freedom, especially if spirituality is your bag. The project derives much of its spiritual inspiration from Taoism, an ancient Eastern philosophy that teaches humans how to harmonize with the Tao, or the universe.

This Substack page is the public online face of the Doomer Bloomers Institute, whose mission is to help young current and aspiring entrepreneurs like you overcome mental health issues, a poverty mindset, or a lack of resources. The community will help you adopt a more optimistic, ambitious worldview and develop confidence in yourself and your business ideas.
The Doomer Bloomers Institute targets the intersection of two populations of North American young adults. As you may know, “doomers” are people who are extremely pessimistic about global issues like pollution, overpopulation, peak oil, climate change, and nuclear war. “Bloomers,” by contrast, are young people who are optimistic, confident go-getters. According to Nemo, “doomer-bloomers” are “individuals disillusioned with the present yet hopeful for a brighter future.”
The Doomer Bloomers Institute Substack page was created to document founder Will Nemo’s legacy for this population after he had spent 15 years pursuing the traditional nine-to-five life. Once he learned about the four-hour workweek, however, Nemo became obsessed with freedom of time, money, and location and spent over a decade learning the skills to establish lifestyle freedom. He then decided to teach and share with others how to find purpose and get on the path to living the best version of themselves. Nemo wants to give young future leaders like you the roadmap to do the things you love.
“This Substack is about teaching and sharing with others how to live life to the fullest extent possible using the philosophy of Taoism and staying positive in life,” Nemo explained. “Put simply, say ‘yes’ to every reasonable opportunity that seems positive to your own personal development. Step outside your normal comfort zones and don’t let your life become mundane. Accept every invitation, go on every trip, and climb every mountain in search of that everyday bit of fulfillment.”
Times are tough, but a better tomorrow is always possible if you're willing to work on yourself.
