The World We Live In
Every great journey begins with understanding where we are, who we are, and what we aim to achieve. In this foundational lesson, we set the stage by exploring the big questions that define our existence and inspire action:
These are not just philosophical musings—they are calls to action. By reflecting on these questions, we unlock the potential for meaningful change at personal, professional, and societal levels.
The Current State of the World
The world we live in is complex and dynamic. It’s full of beauty, opportunity, and promise, but also fraught with challenges:
Yet, within these challenges lies immense potential for transformation. Together, we can explore alternatives, build solutions, and create a better world.
Big Questions, Real Impact
Why Ask These Questions?
They are the foundation of every ambition, goal, or dream. Whether you’re an individual seeking purpose or an organisation tackling a local or global challenge, these questions guide us to meaningful action:
- Where do we come from?
- Reflect on history, culture, and shared human experiences.
- Consider the legacy we inherit and the values that define us.
- What is life all about?
- Contemplate personal and collective purpose.
- Ask how we can create lives filled with meaning, balance, and progress.
- How can we make things better?
- Identify actionable steps to address issues and seize opportunities.
- Embrace collaboration to achieve what no one can do alone.
