CONSUME SUCKS
Consume sucks and this fact resonates strongly on the EFPSA conference of ENVIRONMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY in Prague in the last three days.
Consume sucks resonate from my own INDUSTRY 5.0 speech and workshop I have there, despite the fact I never use these words the same as the others.
CONSUME SUCKS get into my head on my way back home, tired, but happy.
I was happy to meet such a big number of great people
I was tired of consuming the content of speeches delivered by others not because the content was not interesting, or the speakers boring, but because of the two of three days of the conference, I was placed into the role of the content consumer without the possibility to create.
For the last six so as for the remaining 42 years of my life I do create. Intentionally or not, I do create. For six years I do create WASTELESS WORLD, for the last four, I do create INDUSTRY 5.0. My working day starts st five or six in the morning and ends up at five or six in the evening when I fo home to create more. Creation became my life.
Creation became the meaning of my life.
Carl Gustav Jung says in one of his interviews “THE MAN CAN NOT STAND MEANINGLESS LIFE” and I feel that physically on my way home the third day.
This enlightenment delivers me the understanding of the basic issue related to the lack of change so urgently needed to stop the dead-end street journey of the life on our planet. It is hidden in the very basic principles of the education system, speaking not only about schools, but family and social environment as well as physical so as to virtual.
We have set CONSUMPTION prior to the CREATION
This is evil.
Few deliver knowledge to hundreds and hundreds listen all days long to the words and write down the knowledge which few put on a paper and in the books decades and centuries ago, which have been set as dogma which everyone must know.
Every presentation I saw contains (because it must probably) references to the books and quotes of others. It became a standard of education to know what the others said and nobody wonders why it is not the speaker who set new quotes and delivers not new ideas.
I am very happy to be part of such a great event for it delivers me the insight and new energy through sucking my energy out of my bones, For sure I will return many times to the topics and speakers, but for now, let me end this article because it is your time to CREATE.
