Join my journey finding something2ponder.
Ideas come from thinking. Actions come from ideas. As a species we need action, lot’s of it. But we need to start at the beginning: to ponder.
I’ll tackle all sorts of things:
- government; politics; democracy
- economics; land, labour and capital; technology; markets
- the planet; population; resources; climate
- why do people do what they do?
- and other interesting stuff
If you agree with me, tell someone else. Forward a link. The more people think and talk about what’s really going on, the more likely we’ll set a different course. And, on all sorts of things, I think that’s exactly what we need to do.
If you don’t agree with something, that’s fine too, but check around carefully and make sure you aren’t:
- trapped in the “optimism bias”: that’s a characteristic of most of us
- a victim of “group think”: many folk are
- short on knowledge of the facts: that’s all of us – some more than others
- confused between facts and opinions: opinions, asserted as facts and repeated often enough, start to sound like facts
- maybe even just a little bit deluded
