Thinking in circles, not straight lines

A thought 🤔 How many of the problems we're facing stem from the fact that we're thinking in straight lines, rather than circles?

In every aspect of our lives - from how we see ourselves, our relationships and meaning of our lives - to our daily habits, actions and ways of being in the world - the dominant narrative is all about straight lines.

Yet straight lines don't work. They are exponential, isolated and always need more, more more - which cannot ever work when the core principle of Life isn't linear. It's circular and spiral, relational and complex, fluent and emergent.

Just imagine what could happen if we started to think and act in circles and put those straight lines back in the box?

⭕ from linear to circular.
⭕from growth to abundance.
⭕from progress to process.
⭕from competition to collaboration.
⭕from extraction to regeneration.
⭕from decompartmentalised to holistic
⭕from individual to collective.
⭕from I to we.
⭕from ego to eco.
