Fix the World
The world is falling apart. You can ignore it, and let the kids deal with the damage, or you can change the way you live and mitigate that damage. This show’s about changing: Take less, give more, and leave more alone. It’s simple. If you do it well, you’ll fix the world. If you don’t, you can do everything else and accomplish nothing. That’s my summary statement after 80 years of struggling to make meaning of life. I'm not paid to do this podcast, and I'm not selling anything. I just want a better life for my kids, and your kids, and their kids. If that's what you want, I can help you make it happen. Think critically about what you want. There's probably a big difference between what you think you want and what you really want. Fix the world by knowing this difference, and working for what you really want.

Fix the World
Episode 1. Fix Your Dream
We're all born with the same dream: That we're entitled to be warm, dry, loved, and allowed to sleep as long as we want whenever we want. We think we outgrow it, but this infantile dream conditions our expectations throughout life. We feel entitled. That's why the world is as it is. Want a better world? Make a better dream. Value sacrifice more than comfort, work more than leisure, giving more than getting, and gratitude more than satisfaction.
