It is not too late to save the world — but we need the right diagnosis first!

Question from the Internet:

“Is it too late to save the world?”

No, it is not too late to save the world. But if we want to save the world we would need to know what is wrong with the world, as only when we have the right diagnosis can we find the right solution, a cure!

At the moment we are still searching for culprits we can blame, so we try saving the world by changing politicians, parties, governments, ideologies, or economic and social systems.

And as we see again and again we fail as whoever we choose will become just as bad as the previous one or even worse. In terms of social, economic systems we swing from one to the next and then back again. Each new leader, government spends the first months in power to undo, reverse what the previous leader, government did.

History is a helplessly recurring chain of vicious cycles, and in our days the swings, crisis cycles follow each other endlessly without any hope for the future.

This is why detecting the root cause is so important.

The root cause of all our problems is our own, inherently self-serving, self-justifying, individualistic, and subjective nature. We make all our calculations only for self-benefit, most of the time succeeding, surviving at the expense of others — knowingly or unknowingly.

This is why if we truly want to save, change the world, first we will have to change, “upgrade”, “reprogram” ourselves — with the help of a unique, purposeful, and highly practical educational method.
