Denna vecka har jag äran och nöjet att vara gästbloggare på Nextopia. Här är dagens inlägg:
”The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.”
Bertrand Russell
Nextopia thrives on uncertainty. It is the lack of facts and information that leaves to our imagination to create our expected future. We search for knowledge and spend so much effort in finding facts, yet at the end it doesn’t help us. Imagination creates possibilities and goals, but when the cards are turned, when the fog lifts and the facts are displayed, restrictions, complications, objections and consequences surface. The less we know, the greater the possibilities for hopes and creative interpretations.
We hold the Economic Man as our role model, bud indeed he does not contribute to our desires, our ambitions, hope, love, imagination or creativity. The anti-materia of Nextopia is facts, verifications and knowledge.
Breakthroughs, to boldly go where no one has gone before, is driven by fools and fanatics, living in Nextopia, breaking free from the bonds of Economic Man and other wise men, all full of doubts.
We often fail to put our facts and figures to good use, which is to fuel aspiration, inspiration and even transpiration.
It may not be the whole problem with the world, but wouldn’t the world be a little better if could achieve this more often?
