In the earlier times of human kind people built their own homes, grew their own food, made their own clothes and tools. They where self sufficient and the knowledge was passed on from generation to generation. With industrialization and increasing population, this knowledge has been put aside and most of it now lost.
It´s kind of impossible and pretty utopian idea to turn back to these old living habits, especially here in the west, but maybe we could try to find a balance in our lives between what we can make with our own hands and what still must be done by machines. So before running out to the store we could think twice and see if we really need to buy this item that we need.
The more we can create for ourselves, the greater will our individual freedom and independence be.
