[OSList] Ridiculous quote from David Orr ..."The plain fact is that the planet does not need more successful people"

Mark Carmel markacarmel at gmail.com
Thu Dec 5 07:56:35 PST 2019


The definition of success is:
 The Accomplishment of an aim or purpose.

What IS Open Space Technology if not to inspire participants into action to
pursue their passion to accomplish their aims? Their purpose? To become
successful in their life?

The notion that we should stamp out successful people is idiotic given the
sheer numbers - billions of people living without food, water, health care,
safety, etc.

There is a dangerous trend now disparaging success.  Anyone who buys into
this idea to stifle success are part of the problem and should not be an
OST Facilitator....in my humble opinion.

"We need more successful people, not less." - Mark Carmel
