Accelerating Innovation

The following TED talk delivered by Bill Gates speaks of his one wish to halve the cost of energy while simultaneously reducing carbon output from the production of energy to zero. He speaks of energy miracles and explains his preference for a particular miracle he favours.
I started to wipe the sweat from my brow. I [...]

Corporate Sales Revenue Vs National GDP

David Cameron suggests the wisdom of yesteryear can be brought to fruition through modern technological tools.
“The gross national product does not allow for the health of our children, the quality of their education, or the joy of their play; it does not include the beauty of our poetry of the strength [...]

Constant Improvement of Conscience

According to a new study by Badenoch & Clark, claims that 83% of employees think their employer lacks proper commitment to corporate social responsibility. In fact, 28% dismissed their companies’ efforts as nothing more than a box-ticking exercise.
The case could be made that poor internal communications are responsible for this interesting statistic. The employees just [...]

Before I Die

Before I die I want to know that I have done something truly great, that I have accomplished some glorious achievement the credit for which belongs solely to me. I do not aspire to become as famous as a Napoleon and conquer many nations; but I do want, almost above all else, to feel that [...]

Pursue Significance

I found the following video when searching for potential training partners to help with implementing Kahatika.
Again the Video is worth watching all the way through, in fact this clip comes from a cut down two hour interview.
If you are running short of time, skip through to about sixteen minutes in where Dov Seidman talks about [...]

More Video Talks I like

As I pick up links offered through people I follow on twitter I find more and more stuff related to what I’m trying to do with Kahatika and my efforts to “Save the World”.  I busily place talks in my favourites list on TED, Youtube and the likes to try and stay organised. Am I [...]

Conservation will not Save the World

When I speak of my “Save the World” goal I don’t mean saving the planet. After all, the known life cycle of the sun dictates the ultimate demise of our planet. Saving the sun is not on the agenda.
So when I say I want to save the world I actually want to save our species, [...]

The Message

Is it possible to distill your message down to something that resonates universally?
or is it only possible to continually adapt your message in such a way as to it resonates within a smaller and smaller segmentation of the population?
My interpretation of this top down vs bottom up conundrum is that you try to do both. [...]

Practical use of the Human Spirit

Sherwin Nuland speaks of hope and the indomitable “Human Spirit”.  About half way through he makes the statement “The world will not be saved by the internet, it will be saved by the human spirit”. This is as true now as the day the first humans learned to draw, the printing press was invented, and [...]
