29. Take 5 minutes to reflection on how you listened to how you listen.
30. Enacting Change – “Change”? A: what are the solutions we are promoting for climate change? B: We need to change people’s mindset. A: what is mindset? B: A belief… A: It seems to belief is a set of value system. By telling me to change my mindset, you seem to assume that you have a better set of values than I have. How would you feel if I come to tell you that you need to change your mindset because I have better values than you? B: I will feel OK because I would only analyze what you say and learn from you. A: I disagree. I think people will not be willing to accept whatever you propose. If identity is a buddle of value we identify ourselves with, then I would more likely retract and defend my view because what you are proposing is a different view which is threatening my identity. In fact, as I was speaking of all these, this may be happening now. B: But I still see that I will not retract, rather, I will analyze it and try to accept your point of view and learn from that…. A: Are you feeling I am actually intentionally saying something to change what you think? B: No. I will use my rationality……
31. CHANGE 1- Preserve Status Quo - Assume things are going to go bad 2- Go back to a time in the past - Assume past is better than now, - Assume when past do come to now, it will remain in “now” rather than past. 3- Form a picture of how the world should look like in the future, and we want others all to buy into that picture. - Assume your picture (or your capacity to form a picture) of the world is better.
32. So Why am I here? – A confession I am committed to the possibility of a conscious and benevolent transition to a world where we can live together, all of us ‘face-to-face’ in a way that reflects the deep and natural interconnectedness and prior unity of our reality. I am committed to a quality of individual and collective realization of ‘reality itself’ that is compassionate and loving. This involves a kind of liberation from the way in which much of our collective attention has become fixed and institutionalized in the collective dream of the industrial era, its effects and our coping mechanisms. I believe in the possibility of a sort of collective human evolution at this moment in history (and in fact you all have given me deep inspiration and hope in this regard).

Act out with another personThis dialogue actually took place between Roger Burton, a professional “change agent”, executive coach, designer for our BP Antarctica ExpeditionAnd Adeel, one of our members when he few to HK and spent a day talking to us…
What we are doing, in essence, is no different from Hitler – to unify the world. It is just that we use different means and which impacts at a different scale (as it would seem) or that we are not aware that this is what we are trying to do.So then, how come we are called “a network for change”? Why the hell are we here? Now, I can only speak for myself…so I am going to present my point of view, and its assumptions.
You do not need to be here for the same reason, I respect whichever reason you hold. I do wish to make it clear why I am here because Climate ChanceAs I know it, is here to enact change in a way that is consistent with its vision – a just and sustainable world, and that vision does not come to life without you all, your vision and sense of purpose.
Reflected in our structure (organic, minimal), decision-making (decentralized, not so much in form but In essence), change being the status quo, leadership model (servant), our insistent on examinaiton of mental models, deeply help believes, our change approach (structural and system thinking) …moreover, self-awareness, and consciousness
