The age old question is...
where does a meaningful change start?
It's all connected
Chaos Theory... aka the butterfly effect
We've been born into unsustainable world
and we're disconnected from the impact of our actions
The Judeo-Christian concept of "original sin" is not helpful
shame does not work
we can do better
it's often completely counterproductive
Sustainable lifestyle = privilege?
It's easier if you're rich
well educated
without ancestral trauma
and surrounded by inspiring people
Initial...
social wealth
material wealth
psychological wealth
physical wealth
How far you managed to go
Growth mindset is also a privilege
it's the first prerequisite for change
To guide someone
you need to meet them where they are
They need to be seen and understood
Judgement leads to resistance and resistance prevents growth
Lead by example ๐
Be honest and vulnerable,
show off your imperfections ๐
Empathise ๐
Ask questions ๐
Judge and shame ๐
Seek moral high ground ๐
Admit your own luck and privilege ๐
Prescribe altruismย ๐
Be a hypocriteย ๐

There's a lot of them
Maybe it's better to talk to someone in person
I believe there's potential
It shouldn't be overwhelming
It should be inspiring and fun
...and it should work ย ๐
humans possess an innate tendency to seek connections with nature and other forms of life
Your personal guide towards harmony
To inspire, you need to cast an image in someone's mind
Therefore you need to know their mind
And you need to earn their trust
Delayed gratification is great,
but we're already overdosed on it (career, school)
Change ain't easy, there better be some enjoyment in it, soon!
Excitement and love are vital catalysts for change. That's supported by science.
