Rather than steering your life to avoid the unexpected, aim directly for it. - Kevin Kelly

When introduced to someone, make eye contact and count to four or say to yourself, “I see you.” You’ll both remember each other.

Rather than viewing technological socialism as one side of a zero-sum trade-off between free-market individualism and centralized authority, technological sharing can be seen as a new political operating system that elevates both the individual and the group at once. The largely unarticulated but intuitively understood goal of sharing technology is this: to maximize both the autonomy of the individual and the power of people working together. Thus, digital sharing can be viewed as a third way that renders irrelevant a lot of the old conventional wisdom.

Your group can achieve great things way beyond your means simply by showing people that they are appreciated.
