It’s incredibly incredibly powerful and rarely done, that people create a business with a predetermined endpoint – because then it can be truly purposeful i.e. it’s solving a problem, supporting people to achieve something and/or saving the planet’s biosphere.
In our fast-paced world, where control and competition often takes the front seat, it’s crucial to pause and consider a different route.
Imagine a business not driven by perpetual growth but by a purpose-driven journey. One that recognises the transient nature of goals and embraces the idea that once a mission is accomplished, it’s time to evolve.
🤝 Enter the era of Creative Collaboration:
Instead of viewing other businesses as rivals, let’s see them as potential collaborators in the grand tapestry of innovation. I believe in creating platforms that facilitate this collaboration, where diverse talents converge to address societal challenges, support one another, and contribute to the well-being of our planet’s biosphere.
🔄 Shifting from Control to Community:
Rather than seeking to compete and control, let’s focus on building economic platforms that support communities that are engaged on an inspirational mission.
🎙️ Listen to Nick Oettinger-CEO of the The Furniture Recycling Group below as he sheds light on what this kind of business looks like – a sustainable, socially just, and spiritually satisfying model that nurtures both people and the planet.
🌌Let’s challenge the traditional notions of success and reshape the business landscape so that it can follow natural lifecycles and allows for evolution.
Why doesn’t it happen now?
Because people are scared of letting go of power and wealth once they have achieved it.
⚡️ Capitalism doesn’t solve problems, it maintains and expands the problems to generate profits.
It’s a shame that peace isn’t more profitable!
Moreover, the winners of capitalism don’t like to enter a state of uncertainty once success has been achieved.
But courageous leaders, like Nick, know that there are always other problems to be solved and can evolve and adapt as they eliminate one problem, by moving onto the next.
🧙♂️This evolutionary process is known as Allostasis born from Heraclitus’s idea that a person cannot step on the same piece of river twice; because the river is constantly flowing and the person has evolved too.
Together, we can foster a new era where collaboration thrives, problems are solved collectively, and the impact extends far beyond the bottom line.
🌍Here’s to building businesses that resonate with the universal life-cycle and contribute to a brighter, interconnected and regenerative future! 🌐✨
