quality of data (or whatever) matters little if our focus is on the wrong kind of data (or whatever)

perhaps 7 billion alive people is the energy we’ve been seeking with all our efficient data sets. perhaps the imagined/dreaded chaos of managing 7 billion alive people becomes irrelevant once we trust the roadmap already in each person. perhaps we let go and let that dance dance.
so that i’m not spending my time jumping through hoops and fitting into boxes for you (not a person’s best side) and you aren’t spending your time trying to find me and then wondering/deciding if you should trust/like me (most people are other people, especially when trying to impress).

to follow (listen to) our whimsy.
perhaps what matters most is already within each heart. we just need to listen to that. trust that. trust us.
a reflection
to not let noise mandate words. to not let mandates mandate noise. but rather – to listen to the (assumed) silence. perhaps to be the (assumed) silence.
a zoom out
a zoom out globally allows one to notice the many hours of the day we currently spend … reporting/proving/documenting things/ourselves. and then too, most often after the ed is added.. ie: reported/proved/documented… the less shiny it becomes. the less it’s paid attention to. too often this only gets us to be less us.
- Oscar Wilde
perhaps we find the bravery to listen, question, ..change our minds every day. to create a system that facilitates authenticity & attachment rather than efficiency & evidence.
Rearranging our prejudices Change is the point. It's what we seek to do to the world around us. Change, actual change, is hard work. And changing our own minds is the most difficult place to start. It's also the only place to start. It's hard to find the leverage to change the way you see the world, hard to pull on your thoughtstraps. But it's urgent. "A great many people think they are thinking when they are merely rearranging their prejudices..." William James http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog/2015/09/rearran ging-our-prejudices.html
rearranging the deck chairs change is the need. actual change. we can’t keep rearranging the chairs. we’re past urgent. war, refugees, suicides, .. what more do we need screaming at us.. to stop trying to fix ie: business, schools, .. and start living like we are already free. all of us. (revolution in reverse) a nother way. not the same song second verse. we need to wake up. Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation. - Oscar Wilde
we now have the chance to make many tech’s irrelevant (ie: policies, work, school, war, ..). perhaps as we use tech to hasten a detox from bureaucratic obsessions/preoccupations, this twitch we have to prove/document ourselves/everything will become irrelevant as well.
perhaps as long as we keep talking/listening to ourselves.. that awakeness (aka: eudaimonian surplus) will leave any/all the trail we’ll ever need. redefineschool.com/detox-as-detox/
leaving all of us with the luxury to live our lives more true to ourselves. less about supposed to’s.
I think we’re wasting the chance of a lifetime… We fail to notice because we’re busy keeping busy. We fail to dream because dreaming implies that we have to take a risk to realize our dream. We fail to connect because we might get rejected. And we fail to do because we haven’t noticed, we haven’t dreamed, and we haven’t connected. - Seth Godin, it’s your turn
