Kanskje kan ledelse vise seg å være en illusjon på linje med synet av regnbuen eller vårt inntrykk av at jorda er flat, utfordrer han. - Jan Ketil ArnulfDette var meget godt sagt! Jeg kan anbefale boka The Leaderless Revolution av Carne Ross: http://theleaderlessrevolution.com/
Parks and Stone found that unselfish colleagues come to be resented because they "raise the bar" for what is expected of everyone. As a result, workers feel the new standard will make everyone else look bad.
It doesn't matter that the overall welfare of the group or the task at hand is better served by someone's unselfish behavior, Parks said.
"What is objectively good, you see as subjectively bad," he said.Strange, people really prefer selfish people, to feel better themselves. Now I understand better why the Polish men at work wanted me gone.

As the economists are telling us, the economy must grow. That means, the economy’s mortgage with the banks also must grow. That mortgage is our constant companion. There is no way to pay it back – ever – unless we want to shut down the economy, which clearly we don’t want to. So with every per cent of economic growth, we are digging a larger hole. We must now pay more for the privilege of using money, or face disaster. We must cut more trees, extract more oil, grow more food, produce more consumer goods, all in the name of keeping going. It is the end stage of growth, brought about by our continued ignorance of some important facts about economic affairs. - Sepp Hasslberger

| Typisk hull etter oppheng i gipsvegg. Merk at plastsperra er perforert. Denne innfestingen er utført av byggentreprenøren, uten tanke på fuktinntrenging gjennom ei ødelagt fuktsperre. Jeg har benyttet adskillig silikon og fugelim for å tette hull og perforerte plastsperrer i mitt relativt nye hus. |
Plutselig kommer et sett av utspill fra høyere hold, i jordisk forstand - utenpå folkevalgte organer - om det å være inkluderende, viktigheten av "dialog", "interreligiøs dialog" og "toleranse". Hvem kan i utgangspunktet være mot slikt? - Roy Vega

We don’t love the modern church designed by a “name” architect because it is not part of us; it is alien. Its geometry and surfaces contradict its claim of being sacred through an unmistakable visceral message that triggers a negative physiological response in our bodies. It has been sold to us by a corrupt media through indoctrination, in a political power game where a servile group is proud to execute the wishes of the dominant elite. - Nikos A. Salingaros

| Min nye, gamle kaffekopp. Tror den er hånddekorert? |
 |
| Er den ikke vakker! I sannhet gir skjønnhet livet innhold. |
 |
| Min tidligere kaffekopp til venstre, også den fin, men dog et typisk industriprodukt |
 |
| Snart tomt, men det fine med en slik liten kaffekopp er at man kan unne seg to kopper. Smart! |
Today, it is our communities and natural systems that are treated as property under the law – just as slaves once were – because people living in communities can’t control their own futures, and what’s in our communities is routinely bought, sold, and traded without a whisker of local control,” says Linzey. “In many ways, this work is about walking in the footsteps of those prior movements to transform ourselves from being property under the law to becoming people who harness the power of government to defend and enforce our rights. - TruthoutRead the book review: How Can Communities Defend Themselves From Corporate Interests?
