Stumbled across this quote the other day:
As someone deeply engaged in creating a better world, a sustainable learning society, this quote really hit me heard. Because this is exactly what I believe.
It is so vital to take a long good look at what we are doing right now, in the present moment. If it doesn’t resemble the future we dream of – why, then we should stop immediately and ask ourselves Why?
Why doesn’t the present look like what I’m dreaming of?
What I’ve discovered since initiating the #skolvåren-movement (aka the school spring) is that many people actually lack a dream of the future. Their image of the future is simply ‘more of what we have today’, and they cannot fathom something else.
For me – that implies that they have lost the ability to dream.
For me – that implies that we are at our societal peak, i.e. this is as good as it gets, and society cannot become better than its current set up.
For me – that’s not good enough.
However, I don’t have a clear view of what a sustainable learning society looks like, in detail. I cannot predict the future so I have little clue. But what I can do is envision what that future would feel like, to me. When I close
my eyes an think ahead – I can awaken the feeling I want to have, from the settings of a sustainable learning society.
And you know what? I think that’s sufficient in and of itself!
I don’t need to know the What and How of the future, not yet. Because, if my Why if strong enough / the What and How will fall in place. I go one step at a time, and each step will bring me closer to the feeling I am striving towards.
So, look closely at the present you are constructing. It should look like the future you are dreaming.
Is it?











Nora i tweeten, med det undantaget att jag inte ser det som att relationer misslyckas, utan snarast som att lärdomen är uppsnappad, och det är dags att gå vidare, att säga Ciao, som ju betyder både hej och hej då. Ett hej då till något eller någon, möjliggör ett hej till någon eller något annat!
