Activity Selection
Activity listings are the life blood of your ambitions. They provide a conduit from you out into the world so that other people, teams, and organisations can choose whether or to help you.
Activity listings are rated by our members, and as they do so, listings rise and fall within our Top 100. The further a listing rises, the greater visibility and traction is has, until others come forward to help.
By this time, we’re into Step 4 of the 7 Step Process, teams are built, tasks are planned, and executed, adjhustments made, until finally thhe activity is complete, and outcomes realised.
Here’s how the process looks, along with some other to-do’s:

Everything we strive for on Ideas-Shared boils down to listings helping members to Create Awareness, Stop Negative Outcomes, and Co-Create New Realities — of course, there are other outcomes such as saving money, and time, but these are a consequences of one of the above.
Choosing The Right ‘Objective-Based’ Activity Listing Type
As you can see in the table below, we have listed the 3 primary objectives, that each of your listings are trying to achieve, it can be any or all of them.
The suggested ‘activity type’ column shows the kind of listings worth posting to realise the objective. You many want to post multiple listings to achieve your ultimate goal. This can be with different stakeholders as needed, and run as connected activities.
As an example, you want to create awareness, so you choose to write an Article Listings, designed to educate, and challenge norms.
