Thanks so much

I like your idea of finding the path to creation rather than destruction. I believe that humans are essentially consumers, which is not entirely different from “destructors.” Most people spend their time feeding their own consumption habits by finding ways to get others to consume their ideas, services and products. It’s a vicious cycle…

As I’ve said before, true leaders will seek self-awareness and lead others to it. This way we are all led to creating for for the right reasons, rather than for the sake of consumption or “destruction.”

I would tend to agree with your inference that we should create more than we destroy…

Thanks for provoking thought…

Thanks for this well thought out blog, which obviously took a lot of time to write.

I find that too many of us promote ourselves through efforts of destruction, rather than creation. This is especially true in politics. Most promote themselves not by developing a new way of doing things accompanied with a thought-out strategy, but by attacking their opponent’s character and convincing the public that they are the best of two evils. And, how many of us have seen those reaching the top of corporate pyramids through behind-the scenes backstabbing. We then attend churches, synagogues and mosques convincing others that we are followers of a universal Creator.

However, what is a creator? It is someone that brings into being, originates, or causes something new to come into existence. It believe that many of us follow the path of destruction because it requires little thought or effort. Creating something new is difficult, and requires a lot of effort.

Rather than trying to destroy the beliefs and culture of others, learn from their beliefs and culture and improve upon it.

Train yourself to constantly think of new ideas and ways of doing things, and learn to sell that idea to others.

Write down all thoughts and ideas since no thought or idea is a bad one. You can always determine later if one idea is better than another.

Do not be afraid to fail. Try and try again.

In short, learn to be a creator, rather than a destroyer. After all, isn’t that what a universal Creator would want of His creation.
