COOPERATION - The Most Powerful Idea To Become Viral
What is the most powerful thing?
"Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come".
In a world most divided by political views, religion, social status, and labels of all types, there is a great need for a unifying idea that can actually bring about what everybody wants (but are just going about the wrong way): freedom and abundance.
Is there such an idea? Yes, there is! COOPERATION
Contrary to conventional belief, the competitive mindset is the very reason preventing us to succeed in our world, and only cooperation can help us move forward in style.
COMPETITION IS FOR THE WEAK
The glamour of being competitive is over, is old news. Competition has been proven to not work, to create scarcity and servitude for the majority. Furthermore, competition is for the weak - For the weak? - You may ask...Yes!
The reason we want to become competitive is to compete well. Why? Because we fear something...We fear to be left behind, or to not be good enough, perhaps to not "make it" or simply survive. The common ingredient is FEAR because there is an element of scarcity. Only the weak are driven by fear.
Maybe you pride yourself of being a good competitor, but true competition is never a better choice than cooperation, and the greatest achievers (including those in sports) are not necessarily competing with anyone... they are just striving for greatness. Ask yourself if Mozart, Einstein, or Steve Jobs were trying to beat or outperform somebody or were simply mastering their craft.
Now, think about the most powerful characters that you can remember from history, not the most feared or strong, but those with true power, true influence…Let me give you a few examples. How about Jesus, Mother Teresa or MLK to name a few? Were they competitive in any way? No, just the opposite, they were very cooperative. They did not fear their fellow man or woman because they knew themselves to be truly powerful, to be very strong in their ideals.
So when you reach out, when you cooperate, when you extend your hand to others, you are exercising true power and can influence positively your immediate environment. To be competitive is for the fearful and weak, to be cooperative is for the trusting and powerful.
And the good news is that every human being can step outside his or her own fear to be powerful, to be cooperative, to be the change regardless of what others do. And you know what? What do you think would happen to the corporations and governments run by those individuals? They would be transformed too.
“There can be only one permanent revolution — a moral one; the regeneration of the inner man.” Leo Tolstoi
It was never about choosing the "right" type of government or the "right" type of economic policy. It was always about the right inner principles, and the rest would take care of itself.
HUMANS BE AWARE...
All throughout history the evil and selfish minds have dominated the best of us by the use of force and fear. Their motto, very simple: divide (with fear) and conquer.
It works every time.
They trigger our fear with scarcity. We get divided, and once divided we become their puppets, fighting among ourselves and giving up our power.
Not anymore. In a world which yields most painfully to change…“few men are willing to brave the disapproval of their fellows, the censure of their colleagues, the wrath of their society. Moral courage is a rarer commodity than bravery in battle or great intelligence. Yet it is the one essential, vital quality for those who seek to change a world...” Robert F. Kennedy
WHAT IS THE ANTIDOTE FOR "DIVIDE AND CONQUER"?
Unite and conquer. More than ever we need this simple, yet powerful, idea of cooperation in order to break free from the chains of our fear and move towards freedom and prosperity together.
That idea is here and it needs your vote, your support, your fire…because it is very worth spreading, perhaps more than anything else.
I am calling to all of those than cannot justify with their minds what they see in the world, and know in their hearts that we have the means, and the power to transform our lives and our world IF, and only IF, we get together; if we unite and cooperate.
That is the secret sauce my friends. And, good news! It is simple and fun!
