The quality of our lives is determined by the quality of our questions
Here are a few frequently asked questions (that I discuss with others and myself). Please reach out if anything in here specifically resonates with you.
Personal Questions
These questions create a compass for my day to day life.
Accelerate the materials transition.
Streamline sustainable innovations.
Standardize regenerative production.
Enjoy the passage of time.
Learn to be the truest form of self.
Openness. Playfulness. Respect.
Philosophical Questions:
These questions create a lens that helps me better make sense of our world.
A mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual interface that exists simultaneously and equilaterally.
The highest vibration that can exist within anything (love, joy, peace, and enlightenment).
Identity Gap
Intentions Gap
Implementation Gap
The channel between your traits (internal) and your roles (external).
We have relationships with ourselves, others, ideas, things, past, present, future, and nature.
Business Questions:
These questions help me determine how I can make a positive impact on our planet.
Sustainable. Organic. Regenerative. Responsibly Sourced.
These will be standardized and expected in every product category in the future.
Carbon-neutral (or carbon-negative) only matters if consumers love your product (and it's healthy for them).
As we navigate the coming years, I expect that many toxic products with harmful chemicals will get destroyed by the court of public opinion. This usually happens when awareness goes viral (typically on social media and through research reports).
Consumers like buying from people (as opposed to companies). This makes influencer marketing mission critical in a world of direct to consumer (D2C) sales.
The materials transition.
Companies feel equipped to analyze and optimize scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions. Very few companies are equipped to quantify and reduce scope 3 emissions.
Finding, testing, and commercializing sustainable materials requires a lot of time, money, and energy.
Companies that are not equipped to navigate this transition will be left behind by their competitors that become industry leaders in material innovation.
I was hoping you were going to tell me. 🙃
