Cheers Jose.
yeah, for me I've never been a fan of motivational speakers... or consumerism. Lol, this post kinda takes in both things, but I honestly believe that it is the biggest step to the next stage of human evolution to move beyond instinctual imperatives that no longer serve us, such as the predatory one.
What prey do we have left? Cattle are subdued through farming, we're slowly causing the extinction of wildlife that shares our planet. The idea I express in this article that I'm most sure of is that most of the ills caused by humans on humans in this world is because of this defunct imperative.
Yet, people continue to buy into a system that no longer serves us. Part of that is money, and the acquisition of power. There are too many people on this planet for these constructs to do anything but harm now. Maybe in the past a central power was needed to keep order and move society in a positive direction, but now with increasing automation across the world, all that will happen is more and more poor people.
I don't know how it can be achieved, but an evolution of thought is needed or we will burn our world down around our ears... and part of that is the perpetuation of ideas that competition and predatory behaviors are either, the right way, or the only way.
ha ha, rant over ;-)
Truth is people will keep buying into these centralised system even if it's bringing a certain kind of demise really. The fact that some set of people will often feel that need to be on top of the food chain of power and wealth is the reason why we may never fully be decentralized as humans sharing sovereign equity, empathy and love for ourselves and our environments. Honestly it's concerning
