Why Thrive!

Thrive! is driven by the “human force”, our need to survive forever and desire to thrive forever.  This force is a large, positive and sustained driver of our behavior.  It motivates and enables.  It is a large, positive and sustained force for “everyone and everything” and for the “short and long term future”.  ThrivingFuture.org

If and only if we survive long enough, it will help create a surviving and thriving future.  But there is a near term threat to survival from those who focus only on “me”, “short term future” and “getting by”.

We will survive long enough and we will thrive if we change and focus on “me and everyone”, “short and long term future”,  and “surviving and thriving”.

Vulnerable In America – We Feel And Are Vulnerable

Alert! – In America and in the world today, we are all vulnerable to some greater or lesser extent. We hold that in common. Follow the news. Start with one of the 43.6 million Americans, one in seven, who are now in poverty. Nearly four million more than in 2008. Read the rest of this entry »

Reduce Vulnerability in America/world

Alert! – In America and in the world today, we are all vulnerable to a greater or lesser extent.  Walking the streets and roads, you see it in our faces and hear it in our voices.
Action! – We need to minimize vulnerability via policies and politics that systematically stop forces that push us down to more vulnerable states and support forces that lift us out of vulnerability.  “Vulnerable in America (via)” is a strategy to minimize vulnerability that has applicability within and outside of America. www.VulnerableInAmerica.org

Endangered American Dream. Build Thriving Future.

A survivable future? A thriving future? Americans desperately need and want both!
Will America get it? That is the question.
The 2012 elections will be about today’s and tomorrow’s pain and fear.
Today we must end the pain and reject the fear. Partisanship must end. Nonpartisanship must lead and govern.
Tomorrow must be about a survivable, thriving future. Tomorrow must be about recovering and delivering the American dream.

People for repealing health reform don’t get it

Alert! – People who have made it their mission to repeal health reform don’t get it. Look around you. Talk to your family, your neighbors and your co-workers. Ask them if they feel secure when it comes to the current state of health insurance. Talk to a person who is uninsured. Talk to a person at risk if and when they lose their job. Talk to a person who is underinsured and faces bankruptcy from a major, costly illness.
Action! – The answer is not repeal. The challenge is to make it better. Read the rest of this entry »

UN create great endeavor to build a thriving future

Action! - We must achieve a better future by joining together. We must energize and empower a vast, joint endeavor of people, organizations and governments. This vast, joint endeavor must build not just a survivable future but a thriving future for our families, communities, nations, and world.
Again, the United Nations past and current good work deserves much praise. But the future demands even more from all of us. Let me strongly encourage you to help create and sustain a great and vast endeavor to build a thriving future for our families, communities, nations, and world.

Delivering the America Dream

Alert! – Not yet have we delivered on the American dream. We have yet to deliver on the hope. Yet to deliver on the need. Yet to deliver a survivable and thriving future.
What is troubling to all Americans, especially America’s youth, is that the America dream seems lost for the moment. The future of the American dream is endangered.
America needs to survive in the days ahead. Even that will not be easy. But if the American dream is truly to be reclaimed, then it is a thriving future we seek and must build.
Action! – All generations of Americans should unite and jointly launch an unprecedented great movement. Something like what I call “Thrive!” Call for action to fix what is broken and build a thriving future. Three key elements are jobs (near and long term), energy independence and going green.
Now is time to return to and deliver on our dream for America. Now is the time to reclaim the American dream, a truly aspiring hope for America’s youth and all Americans.

America’s Nonpartisan Future Starts Today Or …

The 2012 election is coming.  The nonpartisan future starts today or else …
America desperately needs to survive and wants to thrive. The American need. The American dream.
America feels vulnerable. And it truly is.
America waits anxiously and watches its political leadership. America needs smart, effective nonpartisan leadership now.
Americans have a survivable and thriving future to build. We have difficult, complex problems to solve.
We don’t want to spend one penny more or one penny less than necessary. We don’t want government one bit larger or one bit smaller than necessary. We don’t want government to be one bit more intrusive or one bit less helpful than necessary.
Americans need success and soon. Americans will not wait.  America’s nonpartisan future starts today or else partisan politicians face electoral extinction.
America’s nonpartisan future starts today or else the American dream turns into a nightmare.
America’s nonpartisan future starts today and, if so, America’s survivable and thriving future starts today.
