Profit ought to be something we consider only after adding as much ecological value, energy, benefits, and resources to the public good side of the continuum. It is strange to me that organizations will do almost anything to profiteer or increase their stock price. Much of the frustration and stress in our world comes from the tension created by organizations and their interactivity with those that insulate and isolate these organizations from perturbation. They have discovered that complexity is good for the bottom line because it creates confusion, so people cannot figure out what is happening. Much is about finding every possible way to profiteer regardless of the consequences to people or the environment. They either know what they do or don’t know what they do. For those who would like to transition to a more holistic point of view because they know what is going on, it is best to bring it up in the boardroom and risk getting fired. It may be the best thing to happen to you as we transition to how things could be world.

When we function more in a static way, we tend to work more to preserve the way things are above the need to adapt to changing conditions. Sadly, many organizations thrive on hurting people and our environment. It is not all their fault, but it seems we have created a situation where various organizations are stagnant and operating in a way that satisfies their self-interest only, whatever their roles are in our society. I would instead not identify those organizations and prefer to have them think about it and have a chance to adapt and transition to more sustainable striving functioning instead of self-preservation and complacency. It is rather strange to me that we have functions in our world that are seen as being those we respect the most in our society when their functioning contributes an immense amount of detrimental impacts. In fact, I believe the lack of the ability to imagine how things “could be world” keeps them functioning in the same manner. However, people are getting hurt, and our environment is being compromised for their self-serving behaviors.

Consequently, detrimental impacts from these behaviors have created a condition in our society like an out-of-control train heading for doomsday. It is time for us to realize that our self-promulgating behaviors and organizational complacency contribute to the opposite of the dynamic transitional sustainable striving behaviors we need today. As an illustrative example, if we have organizations that function out of control, self-preserving, self-interested, complacent, out of context, and pseudo-violent, Likewise if we give all the authoritative power to these types of organizations, they will get stronger and stronger in an ever-increasing way thus magnifying the detrimental impacts to society, individuals, and our environment over time. These organizations tend to take on a more reactionary perspective and, when enlightened by holistic perspectives, tend to retreat towards denial. Individuals love their jobs so much that they will do anything to keep them. Those given more authoritative power use it to keep themselves going rather than adapting and doing what is best and suitable for individuals, society, and the environment. It is sad because many of these people have tremendous brain power. It is just that they are using their brains in ways that hinder our functioning instead of helping. Wouldn’t it be great if they began recognizing what they are doing and transition themselves to ecological niche roles and organizations? We must help them understand and help them transition. Organizations are what they are. Self-analysis, self-assessment, learning, and growing are needed more than ever. I hope they start understanding sooner rather than later for obvious reasons. Hypothesis: I wonder if organizations that are so threatened by how things could be are acting out in such a way because their organization may be obsolete, and they are doing everything possible to keep it alive. If this is occurring, it must stop.

The ecological niche organization functions like a natural part of an ecosystem in context. It interacts with other ecological niche organizations to achieve their sustainable striving objectives in context with the Earth level to local, sustainable striving objectives. Assessing needs and problem-solving exercises will determine that this should be the priority. I believe that organizations ought to function along a continuum and produce benefits in a way that weighs public benefits and nature more than themselves. The integrative functioning will involve ecological equilibrium compensation and gentle constructive competition instead of today’s “win at any cost” mentality. In essence, instead of investing in a traditional stock market where bottom-line rules, we must consider everything else regarding ecological energy, value creation, and benefits creation in a relative way first. As a priority, we must strive to take care of our planet, everything, and everyone while functioning as an ecological niche organization. I have put together a concept that integrates current organizational functioning, such as the entirety of the stock market, commerce department, banks, IRS, social security, and others, as an integrated function of ecological equilibrium investing and disseminating organization that supports those organizations more than have more to offer. Imagine the incentive power. As an ecological niche organization, it also connects to those ENOs that can supply us with the science, knowledge, multidimensional priorities, and outcome of problem-solving assessments and research projects. It is like those with the most knowledge incentivize ecological niche organizations to create based on that knowledge. Today, many well-invested and funded businesses are out of context and not providing all they can to our integrated functioning.

In our ultra-competitive world, knowledge is power. Unfortunately, ultra-competitive greed power is not the power that we need primarily at this point in Earth’s history. We need to immerse ourselves in the pursuit of obtaining knowledge for reasons of holistic sustainability so that we can help our planet and everything about our planet. Never mind the foolish games we play sometimes in our money-centric world where knowledge is often sought for reasons of ultra-competition with one another. I am more interested in those that exhibit altruistic behavior. I love them more now. Maybe in the future, I will love everyone more if we all start desiring to obtain knowledge for loving and caring and helping one another and our planet. This way, knowledge is only used to produce beneficial upward spiral feedback loops instead of the opposite. Therefore, I suggest that all schools put knowledge acquisition in context to improve the world according to holistic, well-meaning pursuits. Imagine if our schools were transformed into ecological value, benefits, and value creation as the context and priority as soon as possible. Everyone ought to be included in the process because we need absolutely everyone on this planet working together if we are going to have a sustainable striving future. Therefore, ubiquitous immersion ought to be our goal instead of allowing those with the most ability to compete to get knowledge. Knowledge is the power to transition planet Earth. That is the power that we need. We do not need the power of warring or ultra-competing with one another. That type of power leads us towards doomsday sooner than we think. Wouldn’t it be great if everyone started working together and acquiring knowledge for these holistic reasons as soon as possible? If we did an assessment, it would be the selected alternative in a problem-solving exercise.

As with many occurrences in nature, love is a continuum concept. We should all strive to have as much love in our hearts as possible for fellow human miracles of God and nature. I see many things in this world as a relative continuum because, often, judging behaviors with black-and-white ways of thinking cause more detrimental impacts than imagined. In other words, every time we classify or categorize into fortified structures or what I call bubbles of exclusion, we are extremely anthropocentric and itinerant in our functioning. In fact, we can expand this way of thinking to almost any sort of classification, which is dangerous. The concept of black and white sort of relates to the borders and boundaries paper. If we spread love in our world, we will get more love in an upward spiral sort of way. I also have the philosophy that love is not like a toggle switch. It is difficult to turn it off when you have romantic love for someone. In fact, I do not believe that people who spend many years together can say they do not love each other anymore. They may not be intimate with one another anymore, but I find it difficult to imagine that they do not have love for one another. Maybe our system of self-righteousness has created a situation in which we are supposed not to love one another, and we are supposed to go through a messy divorce, become bitter, and loathe one another. It is a strange concept to me, but it seems to be the norm in many situations. I want to make a statement that I love you and will love you forever, no matter what. I may not love you as much as others in my life, but like nature, love is dynamic and continuous and has great potential to grow as time goes on once I know you better and more about what you are doing to love, care, and help one another on this planet Earth.

If you are stagnant and do not know what to do with your life as many adolescents and adults are these days, here are some thoughts I have put together on some things I have done in my life,  have been suggested to me,  or steps I would take. Our planet needs help in every aspect and in almost every way. Therefore, anything that involves helping people, helping the environment, helping society, helping your community, helping education, helping people without housing, helping your family, or contributing to any holistic, sustainable, striving ecological niche role (job) would help our planet immensely. Regarding getting an education, I believe education is about lifelong learning from the day you are born until the day you die. Remember, those things you are interested in learning today may be different than those you are interested in learning in the future, which is okay. Sometimes, you learn immensely about the similarities and differences in various types of education and learn an immense amount from that as well. I would start with a book like “What Color is My Parachute?” and take the website’s What Color is Your Parachute test. The next step is to go to the local career center in your area. In Florida, it is called the Career Source. For example, it may be called something different in other states, like the Career Center in Maine. These places have diverse abilities to help, including resume help, interviewing, classes on getting a job, career fairs, educational opportunities, meetings with counselors, computers and computer help, and anything you need to get started looking for a job.

However, you will notice that it may be overwhelming at first. These places could get you started, but remember, it is all up to you. You cannot expect them to get the job for you. Once you have taken a career assessment and have thought about what it is you may be interested in, it is time to select an ecological niche role (Career) path and an educational path for continual education. It is best to do both; otherwise, you become stagnant, losing sight of your aspirations and dreams. The next best place to go is your local university or community college, for example, in Ocala, Florida. I believe one of the closest colleges is The College of Central Florida. If college is not for you at this stage, there are other options like the Peace Corps and AmeriCorps, which is a spinoff of the Peace Corps concept, in my opinion, or the Coast Guard. Some people join the military, but I hope all the world’s militaries transform themselves and combine with the Earth’s Holistic Peace Corps. I hope that is enough to get you started.

I believe we should all be able to have the freedom to think what we want to believe, but at the same time, wouldn’t it be great if all the world’s religions, spirituality, Buddhism spiritual ecology, etc., all got together and focused on what we all have in common (similarity) as far as positive energy well-intentioned aspects go. Then, we can learn from our differences. This integrated, holistic spirituality would be an interconnected web of Earth spirituality centers/churches/synagogues/etc. All around the world. Deviations from the overall well-intentioned commonality theme or specific branches of beliefs could meet simultaneously in addition to a standard integrated service. This idea would get everyone focusing on the well-intentionedness that our loving and caring God would want us to focus on instead of being so divisive and competitive. Another benefit would be feeling welcome at any spirituality center/church/synagogue/etc. Anywhere around the world.

If we all worked together to spread love, hope, comfort, and joy throughout the world in a way that integrates the absolute best messages to people, we could bring more needed spirituality back into this world. Let me be clear that this transformation will not eliminate any positive, well-intentioned message from any one spiritual belief as long as it is a positive, beneficially impacting message for people on this planet. We must inspire people to learn about genuine kindness, love, compassion, and forgiveness worldwide. We must spread messages of helping one another and picking people up when they need help. We need inspirational words of wisdom in all forms from all that have something to offer if it adds to functioning that contributes to positive upward spiral beneficial behaviors on our planet. It makes no sense to me that we waste so much time spreading condemnation speech in some branches of spirituality, but I hope we can put these differences into a learning context to learn more about how they may impact our planet. I don’t know about other beliefs, but God is all about love. I have a hard time imagining anything else. Therefore, let us put it all in that context; otherwise, we risk contributing to destructive messages that may impact our world detrimentally by creating conditions that foster excess ultra-competition behavior. Imagine the inspirational fortitude that could help propel us forward when we all work together on our planet for strictly well-intentioned purposes. Other benefits include the ability to go to any integrated house of hope/love/peace/joy/comfort anytime, anywhere, and the ability to go more often because an integrated house of hope/love/peace/joy/comfort (including Nature) will be closer geographically, the ability to continually learn and put spiritual messages in context with Nature and our natural functioning, the ability to organize and help one another through missions and common purpose, the ability to maintain your current spiritual traditions, holistic rituals, and methods of praying as well as long as they are beneficially impacting in a well-intentioned multidimensional way. Wouldn’t it be great to be a part of the entire planet Earth’s population functioning holistically for all of our people and the rest of Nature? Imagine the cohesiveness and unity of purpose and enlightenment when we bring together all the spiritual, philosophical, and natural perspectives from those who know more about humanity, Nature, and God.

Ecological niche roles are different. Unlike what we used to call employment, there will be no firing, laying off, complacency, or doing anything to keep your position. There will be transitioning only. Once you have an ecological niche role (formerly called a job), you will stay in that role until you and your organization feel it is time to transition to a different role more suitable for your skills, desires, and educational aspirations. In other words, you will stay in your role until an educational opportunity or another ecological niche role in your current semi-permeable ecological niche organization is available. It will work in the future because everything is connected to everything else, and transitioning to a new role means transitioning to somewhere else in the connectedness. Otherwise, several opportunities will allow the continuation of education with a guaranteed ecological niche role at the end of your educational experience. There will be no unemployment because it does not make sense. We need everyone worldwide working together to save our planet and everything about it. We must recognize that the most important ecological niche role is being part of a family or a parent. Thus, everyone will have at least one ecological niche role connected to everything else. There is no limit to the number of ecological niche roles or ecological niche organizations you are a part of. It all depends on your willingness to contribute your ecological benefits, energy, and value to some part of our interconnected nature in a sustainable striving way. World without end…

I have been concerned about Earth’s life support systems that affect everything on our planet, including human health. Everything to me happens at a certain level, and I sometimes wonder if phenomenon like cancer is geographically distributed in certain areas more than others because of impacts on our life support systems. I talked to one person who mentioned it may have been radionuclides from atomic testing that are causing cancer. It may be partially true. But I wonder if it is more of a cumulative causation, including excessive pollution in all forms, multi-level exposure to carcinogens, or processes that have become out of balance in our systems. I wonder about acidification. I wonder that in areas with more acidity, there may be more cancer because exposure to more acidity in the environment will mean exposure to more acidity in the human body. I wonder if we can do a research project on more basic areas due to the natural occurrence of more basic bedrock formations, including limestone, dolomite, and others. It would be interesting to contrast various environments to see if there is any validity to this hypothesis. Furthermore, areas where cancer is of higher incidence may be areas coincidentally associated with other behavior traits that may increase the likelihood of getting cancer. These contributory causes include less healthy food, poor health, smoking, and a lack of fruit and vegetables (which raises acidity because of breathing problems). How I look at things is that everything is related to everything else. We are all part of the Earth, and the Earth is our home. How we treat our home is how we treat ourselves because the environment we create is the environment we ingest and breathe. If the Earth has homeostasis problems, so will we. I am worried about ocean acidification and that we are overwhelming the buffering capacity of the oceans, thus creating a situation where we will start impacting the primary producers, which will, in turn, affect the rest of the food chain and food webs, including us. We must strive towards natural Earth functioning, thus minimizing our impacts on our planet as soon as possible. Otherwise…?
