Will the world be a better place in 30 years (post inspired by Y. Strickler’s book)?

Featured

The book of Y. Strickler entitled "This Could be Our Future. A Manifesto for a More Generous World" is a real manifesto for a better world. In the first part, the author describes how a world today wracked by the lust for profit functions. In the second, he gives examples of individuals and companies whose philosophy includes reference to and guidance in their choices of values such as justice or environmental responsibility.

The title alone encourages you to read. In the part I have already read, the author writes that the world is motivated by profits, GDP and a general profit orientation (i.e. material goods).

What is the real meaning of success?

Featured

Each of us can define our own success. In order to do so, one can ask oneself the question: How will I know that I have achieved (am achieving) success? For me, success is living a peaceful life, getting rid of stressors, having a good, rewarding job, setting financial goals and achieving them, having healthy relationships with my wife and other people, developing interests (e.g. personal development, Slavic languages).
