"Self-Reliance" is an 1841 essay written by American transcendentalist philosopher and essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson. It contains the most thorough statement of one of Emerson's recurrent themes: the need for each individual to avoid conformity and false consistency, and follow his own instincts and ideas. This channel will approach self reliance from a modern perspective. and will focus on various build projects using modern amenities, and tools to build a completely self reliant lifestyle.
Many people ask me where I am from and where I film my projects. I am from Northern Ontario, Canada, and live in an area where off-grinding is easy because I have lots of land to build on and experiment with different buildings and materials. Everything I do is to try to be more self reliant, and to depend less on others. But that doesn't mean I don't like working together with other people on projects. Knowing people who have skills is part of being self reliant, and trading skills is a great way to get more things done!

It was really good seeing you Don. Take care and I’ll keep in your prayers that every day you get stronger and stronger. love the ice-skating ring never tried ice-skating.

Thanks for taking us along on your journey Kevin nice seeing Rachel and Lena.

Welcome back, Don!!

[@devoregroup]

Absolutely amazing!! Your children will love these moments forever.

[@forthwithtx5852]

Great to see Don doing well! I’m from northern Ohio and growing up a portion of our backyard would flood and freeze. We had a bin full of skates that we 6 kids would pick through to use. Sometimes I was skating with hockey skates and others figure skates, depending on my foot size. You Canucks. It’s just in your blood.

[@gene_takovic57]

Great to see Don out there! Perfect time to drop the puck on All-Star Weekend. What about next winter using the old Modern Self Reliance logo for center ice?

[@motaman8074]

Don's here. Get back to work!!! Just kidding. It's great to see you well.

[@davidreid8353]

Good to see Don on the mend. He truly is a humble man.
