3. Tool #1 Belief may not simply be stronger than matter… Belief may be all that matters.

4. Forget About It “Question what you have been taught. Remember what you know.” Forgetting is good … When you forget, then remember, you often have new insight. Actually, you already knew, anyway. Tool #2

5. Ontogeny Recapitulates Phylogeny One Person’s Life is like the Evolution of the Species. One Person’s Life is like the Evolution of Humankind. One Day is like a Person’s Life. One Cell is like a Person’s Body. As Above, So Below. Tool #3

6. Change is Accelerating The Speed of Change is reaching a Speed Limit! What’s next??? Each period of major historical innovations takes shorter and shorter times. From Hunter Gatherers to Stone Age to Metal Age to Industrial Age to Electronic Age to Now. Next is a whole new world. … What will you bring to it??? What are the best moments you have ever had? … Bring them! Tool #4

7. Tap the Hive Mind Historically, people on different parts of the planet sometimes come up with the same idea at the same time. Is there a collective consciousness to humankind? Are other species connected? The best question is… are the hive minds connected? Tool #5

8. Everybody on the planet knows Sustainability … Except the Humans Actually, we used to. Humankind, version 1.0, lived sustainably with the rest of the species. They didn’t take too much, they didn’t take other’s food, and they didn’t conquer. Enter Humankind 2.0! I’m afraid of late, we think we know better than God. I vote for a new version. Tool #6

9. The new biology is that cells, DNA, and genes do not control life. You do – you are telling the cell what to do. So you are not a victim. You are something - not matter - playing through your cells. Tool #7

11. So, put the WHOLE thing together. If you believe 1 it, it will happen. So, how will you know what to make happen? Don’t worry – forget about it 2 – you’ll know. After all, you are a small version of all of humankind – remember, Ontogeny Recapitulates Phylogeny 3. And since Change is Accelerating 4 remember what you want to bring to the next version of humankind. But that’s easy, because you have access to the Hive Mind 5. I know that you will pick a new version of humanity that will sustain 6 happiness, because the new biology 7 says you have the choice, so that you can repeatedly do what you love and thereby become it 8 ! See? The WHOLE 9 is in every part. Tool #9

12. Tool #10 – write your own …
