I’m moving my ideas around ...

Check out my blog and pod on *zaadz:

Social Influence - Creating Futures That Work
http://pods.zaadz.com/social_influence

Joseph’s Blog

See you here and there .... all around the world and back to the beginning again ...

Folks,

I’m developing an online presence at *zaadz (http://www.zaadz.com) ... an online community with a stated intention of:

“To change the world by inspiring and empowering people to live at their highest potential ...”

They are also quite commited to the idea of Conscious Capitalism, something I’ve been preaching and livin’ for quite a while myself ... personallyI think we fail completely if we fail at this ...

And as anyone who has been tracking my movement knows about me I’m seeking a way to COMMUNITY and have been for years (read my first blog entry at *zaadz ... Going WIth The Flow ....

SImply, I think that community as we know it ... i.e.: local, temporal ... geographically and/or demongraphically organized ... had died in the world many, or maybe most, of us play in for much of our time. We have become global players ... and we need and desire a means to create an effective global community of players we can connect with and remain connected to.

I don’t mean a virtual community, e.g.: Second Life - an imaginary world to inhabit behind the mask or an avatar so we can remove ourselves from the world ... cowering behind a computer screen and keyboard, I mean a real community comprised of real, live human beings who are interested in connecting in real and meaning-filled ways. I also believe the portal to this real, live community may be the connections we are learning to make via our on-line experiences ... that in turn transcend the virtual world they suggest to some.

Again, I’m not talking about the Matrix ... I’m talking about being Neo ... the new warriors for the people and of the people ... and the planet ... your ever lovin’ REAL LIFE! not your second life (most folks know I don’t believe in reincarnation anyway).

So I’m not abandoning this blog ... I still have a thing that’s hot and heavy for BlogNostra ... my first blog romance you could say ... part muse, part medium. What I’ll be doing will be keeping separate what I think of as separate ... my posts to and on zaadz will be about Social Influence and “Creating Futures That Work”. My posts here will focus on human performance, including high-level decision-making ... and my rants about this and that ... mostly focused on application and conscious capitalism ... and capitalists (entrepreneurs and professionals if you’d prefer that title).

BTW this site will be undergoing a major overhaul in the next few weeks (I hope ... keep your fingers crossed for me). This intention will be paring it down to the essentials, making it easier to navigate, more useful to you, and much more focused ... I think you’re gonna love what we’re planting ... harvest times’ a comin’ ...

Thanks all!!!
