Finding Satisfaction

In an unequal world, where suffering can be dramatically reduced by coordinating / helping across boundaries, how can we enable sufficient empathy to spur action, at scale?

The problem at a societal level is that 'valuable skills' are fairly highly correlated with privilege.

The crisis we face now - persistent, omnipresent, and yet invisible - triggers not our “A-Game”, but anxiety. “Lowering the temperature” for ourselves and loved ones, and acting out of thought and not emotion, therefore becomes our responsibility, not an ‘automatic’ defense mechanism.

Satisfied people don’t wait for an ideal tomorrow.

It’s better to start with a 2 minute version of something rather than not start at all.
