How to break everything
…and make it worthwhile
If you flow like water through a thick bamboo forest, you will leave your marks, no matter how gentle you are. Life means to create and therefore it has to break.
Creating and breaking
You are here on planet Earth. You will create a lot during your time. But this comes with a price. In order to create you will have to break. You need resources for your life. So make it count. Create something worthy. Generate entropy. Build something that is meant to last. Your burden is to leave this planet in better shape, than you found it.
This is not as easy as it seems. Indeed we, as a mankind, failed horribly the last centuries. We made a lot of mistakes. But we advanced in technology very fast. You could see this as an investment. The return has to compensate the invest by a order of magnitude. So you not only have your individual footprint, you also inherited the backlog of your ancestors. But you have 100 times the power of your grandparents. What do you want to leave for future generations? A bigger backlog? Or an opportunity to rebuild this planet?
Mindful and Renewable — Lean and Green
As an individual, you need to understand this world. Not everything in detail, but you need to have a common understanding. This is the requirement to live a mindful life. This enables you to reflect and evaluate your life choices in a future friendly way. What if you overstrain the limited resources of this planet? You cannot continue forever. So you need to find a way to make use from renewable resources. In every respect.
As a company, you need to empower this understanding. Everyone in your company needs to understand this central argument of life. Create a lean and green economy. Your company cannot continue if you rely on the wrong resources. You will be your biggest enemy. Stop creating a well-being for the top 1%. Create wealth for 100%. We will need everyone in order to safe this planet. If only the top 10% are able to implement lean and green, you have already failed.
No second chance
We as one mankind will not be granted with a second chance. If we fail, the planet is doomed. There will be no high society that will live in bunkers and some how stay rich. It will be post apocalypse for everyone.
Go and break everything that does not respect the future. Begin with yourself.
