Jeff Bezos Says 'I Would Love To See A Trillion Humans Living In The Solar System' — Then We Could Have '1,000 Mozarts And 1,000 Einsteins' Amazon founder Jeff Bezos isn't thinking small. He's thinking a trillion people big. On the "Lex Fridman Podcast" in 2023, Bezos laid out a vision that sounds more like science fiction than a business...

Insanity.

Every species has limits.

A bookstore staff recommendation for “Ishmael,” by Daniel Quinn.  The handwritten sign says “be prepared for your life to be split into two parts:  Before reading “Ishmael,” and after reading it.”

A bookstore staff recommendation for “Ishmael,” by Daniel Quinn. The handwritten sign says “be prepared for your life to be split into two parts: Before reading “Ishmael,” and after reading it.”

I concur with this staff recommendation my wife saw at a Seattle bookstore this afternoon.

“Ishmael” is a paradigm shifting book. It changed my life.

Why you should read 'Ishmael' by Daniel Quinn (2015-11-12)
Why you should read 'Ishmael' by Daniel Quinn (2015-11-12) YouTube video by Ryan Cove (Professor Harbinger)

Our system is on autopilot. Everyday, the people go to work, and put their shoulder to the wheel perpetuating this system.

Nothing much has changed since the time when the Egyptian culture was building pyramids.

The system keeps them captive.

I think these are two of the most important books one could read. They are both profound, awakening, and paradigm shifting.

Correction: The people of our culture killed them. The tribal people who lived there thousands of years b4 our arrival didn’t wipe them out, we did.

Humans aren’t the problem. It’s our culture.

“Ishmael” by Daniel Quinn changed my life.

For me, he wrote a 1/2 dozen other life changing books including “The Story of B,” and “Beyond Civilization: Humanity’s Next Great Adventure .”

Did you read “Ishmael?,” by Daniel Quinn?

#2 is “The Story of B,” and #3 is “My Ishmael.”

These three weren’t actually written as a trilogy though they are related and often referred to as the Ishmael trilogy.

Here is a good intro to “Ishmael” by Daniel Quinn.

Ishmael has influenced films (Instinct, …), albums (Pearl Jam’s Yield, …) and lots of thinkers and leaders.

I highly recommend Quinn to people looking for solutions.

The Parable of the Box

Our system isn’t broken if you understand it from a Systems Thinking perspective. In fact, it’s working perfectly well for the top 1-3% who live lavish lives while the rest struggle.

This parable highlights the paradigm/root cause.

Who ever said we couldn’t use trees?

Humans have been using trees before we were humans.

Using trees to live is not the same as deforesting the world to make money.

We are not alone on this planet. We are part of a community upon which we depend absolutely.

The world was not made for one species. The mindset that it is ours to control and dominate like a foe, has left the foe bleeding to death at our feet, as the world is now.
