I spend most of the day in a more listening and contemplating mode. Multiple realities are brought into my living room through these Zoom window screens \u2014 from global summits to family virtual dinner-portals\u2026 surreal and amusing. I am surprised how fast I am adapting to this new normal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What\u2019s your advice to people stuck at home at this period of time?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Train both the intelligence muscles and intuition tissues.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The \u201clock down\/full stop\u201d living sparks the fundamental question among many of us. We race through life like this for GDPs. What for if personal and planetary wellbeing are at risk?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The system is doomed yet what would be the next \u201cpractical\u201d model?\u00a0 At the same time, many spiritual seekers and practitioners are excited to interpret this phenomenon as the trigger point of global \u201cchange,\u201d \u201cawakening,\u201d and \u201cascension,\u201d which was prophesied as a part of pre-written human history. I invite us to remain humble and witness the ebb and flow in a hybrid mode: in <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Volatility,_uncertainty,_complexity_and_ambiguity\">VUCA<\/a> [Volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity] time, embrace the changes that are happening now require skills and intelligence to seek clarity and make immediate decisions necessary, YANG quality, yet embody higher sensory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Knowing beyond mind-pattern-seeking limitation, trust in the emergence based on the natural law of organic development in the bigger design blue map. It is important competence for living in the new normal, YINtitution. Balance and co-working with both is the key. Entrepreneurship and leadership today are mainly run by action and result-oriented principles. But if we come to consensus that it is an interdependent system we are living in, then nurturing, supporting and cross-pollinating efforts should naturally be the new norm.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take daily action to heal the trauma of money fear and love-replacement consumerism.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fear and worry of personal financial situations during and after the lockdown is real. Loneliness is real. Reality bites, but the world didn\u2019t change overnight; it simply was exposed by a magnified mirror.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just like <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CTM<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> treats the root cause of the troubles rather than symptoms, viewing a health issue is not dealing with one situation, but fundamentally cultivating a viable and balanced living system. It is time for us to question deeply how healthy this debt and interests-based and greed-driven economy is in relation to the future of the planet and our life. This is the true cause of our social consensus on the meaning of success and reward, which in turn tainted all our concept of value and nature of relationships. It is unrealistic to ask everyone to abandon comfort and convenience, but it is time to remind us how inhumane the reality of plastic beauty and success truly is. It is time to ask, shall I still participate or at least take conscious distance? Do I really need it or do I want it to impress?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>These three steps are almost in dialogues. 1. Looking forward by looking back. 2. We won\u2019t be going back, normal is a dynamic state, change is permanent. 3. Rethinking the nature of money. You have a diverse cultural and life background. How does your Asian roots shape your thinking\uff1f<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides a general hunger for Eastern philosophy, I am also an ordained Taoist master of ceremony, which is \u201csurprising\u201d for many since I wear this Western-educated innovator\/urbanista persona. I see no difference in theory and practice of systematic thinking with Taoist perspective\u00a0 in today\u2019s context.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The essential premise of ancient Taoist science is the understanding how the entire universe is our body. Our body is a miniature inner universe. Our psychosomatic organism aligns and comes into harmony with the movements of time and space. It is the fundamental topic that a Taoist practitioner is expected to embrace first hand. In other words, being in alignment with Tao means embodying living in systematic thinking. Inner reflects outer, micro speaks macro, everything is in everything.<\/p>\n<p>When an event like this breaks out, in our framework of thinking, it is firstly ACCEPTED as a force of nature catalyzing changes. It appears to be a catastrophe but it carries a message serving as a blessing in disguise. So have no fear and be alert. By acknowledging that a bigger force is at work and everything is alive, in a part of a living organism, we can seek a solution that\u2019s most preferable in the holistic view.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For instance, I often joke about my second home country Sweden is a Taoist-inspired country: the love for nature, the Lagom (not too much, not too little \u2014 balance) principle and the minimalist lifestyle\u2026This time, Sweden choose to go its own way, not acting on total lockdown. It is very much in line with the traditional Chinese strategic approach when facing difficult choices \u2014 \u4e24\u5bb3\u53d6\u5176\u8f7b. Try to evaluate all possible aspects and long-term impacts. Among options, choose the least damaging way. It does not mean it will be proven to be the right way. Following what everyone else is doing and acting out of fear is certainly no better.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>How could Eastern philosophy contribute to the world crisis we are in\u2026<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many starting questioning \u201cglobalization\u201d tainted with the flavor of cultural and commercial colonization. I believe it is the time that Daodejing becomes the new system-design bible sharing the wisdom of collaboration for unity by balancing forces of opposites.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Members of the global conscious community are deeply influenced by Indian spiritual practices, ancient Egyptian\u2019s myth, and South-American\u2019s Shamanic traditions. All of which are invaluable treasures of our ancestral human heritage for expansion and awakening of individual consciousness. When we are seeking a more systematic approach, especially in forming complex collaboration within the ever-shifting web of life in this VUCA time, I suggest diving into Daodejing and Iching, anew. Yes, Traditionally Tao is supposed to be understood only by royals guided by their Taoist strategists. I believe it could serve \u201ccommoners\u2019 in the era of self-leadership and self-realization.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The crisis betrayed people so entrenched in the old system. It\u2019s a moment for people who feel lost and betrayed to be thinking about how to gain sovereignty for themselves after the crisis.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is unconformable living in the unknown. Some choose to stay in the old and safe\/familiar for the time being and some invite the challenges as initiation. The hybrid and old-new coexistence is only natural at this moment for the majority. In the short term, building a bridge to move between the two is still essential, that is what I consider my work mainly entails.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What does BlockBase do and how could it be at service in creating the future?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Which version of the future are you believing in? <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For me, I live in a life-learning society, where the only job you have to do is to become who you are, discover your full potential and be of service to the balance of earth and prosperity of your community.
