To see the direction we are heading, it's a good idea to first understand where we have come from, where we are, and how we got from there to here. This has proven incredibly difficult in an increasingly complex environment where invisible forces combine to form emergent characteristics that, at best, are difficult to directly connect to those forces. Still, when we are able to identify the repetition of patterns, we are better able to connect potential indirect cause-and-effect relationships in the future. In short, in the NOW we learn from the patterns of the past in order to better predict the future.This series of short books, which are published under Conscious Look Books, are conversational in nature, taking full advantage of your lived experience to share what can sometimes be difficult concepts to grab onto. But, you are ready. We live in a world that is tearing itself apart, where people are out of control, rebelling from years of real and perceived abuse and suppression of thought. Yet, this chaos offers us as a humanity the opportunity to make a giant leap forward! By opening ourselves to ourselves, we are able to fully explore who we are. With that exploration comes a glimmer of hope as we begin to reclaim the power of each and every mind developed by the lived human experience!
