Have you noticed lately that I’m messing with your mind?
If indeed you actually read what I share, you will certainly have seen the change.
You see, many things have changed for all of us. To a large extent I’ve been playing. Trying our new ideas, exploring options and thinking a great deal about what the future could have in store.
It occurred to me this morning that what I have been doing is serving you up ideas that are half-baked. And now I think about it, that is perfect.
Thing is, while the clarity of my vision is increasing dramatically, there are many moving parts. The route to that vision of the future is far from clear, but I am highly optimistic we will all get there.
One thing it definitely needs is for you to do your own thinking too.
Part of the reason why I believe we have got ourselves into such a mess is that we have collectively over-relied on others to do our thinking for us.
Little wonder that now we find ourselves dominated by powerful forces beyond our comprehension. Did we actually get what we wanted all along? The easy life. Now we pay the price.
So, the wisdom of presenting the half-baked idea is that it requires you to think about it. To bring the idea to life in your world. Consider from your perspective the various twists and turns of the idea.
But don’t let me confuse or frustrate you. Instead, let’s play with these ideas. Let’s explore together what this world can become. Let’s jump into the unknown with our eyes, minds and hearts open, and revel in the journey.
It is time for you to finish baking these ideas for yourself.
Here are some of my favourite half-baked ideas immediately relevant to the world we live in now. Any one of them, if baked well, by you, could make a substantial difference to your life and the way you live it.
