Sacred Cow Tipping – Time to Change Focus
Creating a Tipping Point for Sustainable Economic Prosperity
The Status Quo is at it again – trying to blow the smoke of denial in our eyes. They would like us to rescue the Old Economy and bring back the old ways of manipulating commerce and unsustainable business practices.
What is actually required is to move forward and build the infrastructure for a New Economy based on sustainability, access and accountability. Yet the Sacred Cow that says, “Keep looking backwards” is front and center, stubbornly digging it’s heels in to sabotage any real change.
Most people know in their heart of hearts that the old economy is dying. The Old Guard would love to feed the sense of hopelessness and fear with their carefully calculated doomsday predictions and the Media will gladly oblige.
What we can do to pull the plug on this kind of thinking is to turn our focus towards businesses and solutions that are being built now, rather than spending our precious resources on keeping the Titanic afloat.
To do that, we will have to release our social contract to comply with “Keep looking backwards”. One way to do that is to consciously make some new decisions.
Take a look at the Soul Contract Circle above and use these affirmations to break the contract:
“I release my agreement to buy into the fear, denial and doomsday thinking of the Old Guard.”
“I release any agreements I have to feed them with my attention or energy.
“I stop supporting those who are greedy or irresponsible.”
“I now focus on building the infrastructure for a sustainable economy.”
If you want to change your focus even more, you can play the entire Sacred Cow Tipping Point Game.
