Money rolls a lot faster in times of crisis than in times of prosperity. Wherever someone is currently losing money, someone else is going to be very rich.
Money cannot evaporate. It can only switch hands.
It rolls out of panicky hands. Quiet hands.
Many entrepreneurs are now paralyzed. They don’t do anything. “Because nothing is possible!”
Others do little. “Because not much is happening now.”
Some respond. They request support. They send staff home. Communicate with their customers.
You can respond for a while. But it is not a sustainable business model.
For that you will have to adjust. Adapt to reality as it is. And do not respond and in the meantime wait until reality becomes as it should be again.
Adjusting means seeing the way it is. Take current reality as a starting point. And from that position, looking for opportunities.
To mention some current reality:
There is a bunch of intelligent people at home with a lot of time on their hands, and a desire to earn some money to continue paying their rent: students. Who will provide that group with work? Opportunity.
People Googly go to “How to make soap yourself”, “How to install zoom / Skype / Microsoft Teams / Slack”, “How to work together remotely”, etc. Who will answer their questions in the form of video training? Opportunity.
A gang of online events will be organized in the coming weeks / months. Companies are looking for all kinds of possibilities to dress up those online events by, for example, having (lunch) packages delivered to participants at home, or to connect people more easily. Who will facilitate that? Opportunity.
Many seniors are even more lonely than usual, as they also have to miss their children’s monthly visit. Opportunity.
Millions of people are at home. They are bored. Opportunity.
Remember, the only thing that has changed is the circumstances. People still have exactly the same needs.
Survival of the fittest is continuously mistranslated as “survival of the fittest”. What it really means is survival of those who can best adapt.
Everyone can respond. Competent people and entrepreneurs can also adapt.

Two founders of the Paris Climate Agreement and chief UN negotiators, Christiana Figueres and Tom Rivett-Carnac, released the book The Future We Choose on 25 February 2020. In it they outline, among other things, a scenario of a future world that they believe we should create. The translation of the book appeared on February 27: We determine the future. Team Blogzynergy shares some passages from this ‘best case scenario’ for the climate in 2050.
The world we have to create
It is 2050. We have managed to halve emissions every decade since 2020. We are on our way to a world that will be no more than 1.5 degrees Celsius warmer in 2100.
In most places in the world the air is humid and fresh, even in cities. It looks like you are walking in a forest and you probably do that too. The air is cleaner than it has been since the industrial revolution. For that you have to thank the trees. They are everywhere.
Afforestation was not the only solution, but the trees gave us the time we needed to overcome carbon emissions. Donations from companies and individuals provided funding for the largest tree planting campaign ever. When we started, it was purely practical, a tactic to combat climate change by moving the carbon: the trees removed the carbon dioxide from the air, separated oxygen and returned the carbon where it belongs: into the ground. Of course this helps to reduce climate change, but there were more benefits. At every sensory level, the feeling of living on what has again become a green planet has changed completely, especially in cities. Cities have never been so good to live in. With more trees and much fewer cars, it has proved possible to make entire streets suitable for urban agriculture and playgrounds for children. Every empty spot and every dark, dead-end alley has been given a new purpose and is now planted with a shady grove. A vegetable or flower garden has been installed on every roof. Blind walls that were once filled with graffiti are now covered with green climbing plants.
For the developed countries, the general change that required a shift to renewable energy was sometimes an uncomfortable transition, as old infrastructure often had to be adjusted and old things had to be done in new ways. But for the developing countries it marked the beginning of a new era. The majority of the infrastructure needed for economic growth and poverty reduction was built according to the new standards: low carbon emissions and a high capacity for recovery. In remote areas, the billion people who did not have electricity at the start of the 21st century now get energy from the solar collectors on their own roof or from jointly managed wind turbines. This new access opened the door for so much more. Large population groups have made a leap towards improved sanitation, education and health care. People who only had trouble getting clean water can now provide the entire family with it. Children can also learn in the evening. Hospitals can now also work efficiently in remote areas.
Construction works all over the world make more of what they need than just electricity. All buildings collect rainwater and manage their own water use. With sustainable electricity sources, local desalination became possible, which means that clean drinking water can now be produced wherever needed in the world. We also use this water for hydroponics (growing plants on water to which nutrients have been added), flushing the toilet and for the shower. We have successfully rebuilt, organized and structured our lives to live more locally. Although energy prices have fallen enormously, we still opt for life and work close to home rather than commuting. Thanks to the better connections, many people now also work at home,
We make communities stronger. As a child you may have seen the neighbors only fleetingly. But to make things cheaper, cleaner and more sustainable, every part of your life is now more locally designed. Things that you did alone are now being carried out jointly – growing vegetables, collecting rainwater, composting. Resources and responsibilities are now shared. At first you resisted this solidarity – you were used to doing things yourself and within the privacy of your own home. But soon the camaraderie and the unexpected new support network started to feel good, something to hold high. For most people, the new way of life has proven to be a better recipe for happiness.
International air traffic has changed completely. Biofuels have replaced kerosene. Communication technology is now so advanced that we can participate in meetings anywhere in the world without having to travel. Civil air traffic still exists, but is used much less and is extremely expensive. Thanks to the fact that a lot of work is becoming more and more decentralized and can be carried out almost anywhere, people save for their ‘big vacation’: international journeys of weeks or months instead of trips of a few days. If you live in Europe and want to visit the United States, you can even plan to stay a few months or longer and view the entire continent using local public transportation with zero emissions.
Although we have successfully reduced carbon dioxide emissions, we are still confronted with the effects of record levels in the atmosphere of the past. The poorly degrading greenhouse gases can go nowhere else than to our already highly polluted atmosphere and they cause increasing extreme weather conditions – albeit less than if we had continued to burn fossil fuels. Glaciers and polar ice are still melting and the sea level keeps rising. Severe droughts and desertification are taking place in areas such as the western United States, the Mediterranean and parts of China. The constant extreme weather and the decline of resources continue to reinforce existing differences in income, health, food security and water availability. But now governments have acknowledged the factors of climate change as the amplifiers of the threat they are. Thanks to that awareness, we are now able to predict problems and to fight them before they end up with humanitarian disasters. So while many people are still in danger every day, the situation is not as dramatic or chaotic as it could have been. The economies in developing countries are strong and surprising global coalitions have formed with a new sense of confidence. If a population needs help right now, there is political will and money available to give that help.

The refugee situation that has lasted for decades is still a source of disagreement and conflict. But fifteen years ago we stopped calling it a crisis. Countries agreed on guidelines for controlling the influx of refugees – on how to assimilate populations without problems, on how to distribute aid and money, and on how tasks should be distributed within a certain region. The agreements are adhered to most of the time, but occasionally problems arise when a country tends to fascism after a few elections.
The spirit of the times has also changed enormously. How we think about the world is now very different. And unexpectedly how we think about the other person.
When the alarm bells started to ring in 2020, mainly thanks to the youth, we realized that we had gone too far with our consumption, competition and greedy self-interest. Our dedication to those values and our pursuit of profit and status had led us to deal with our environment like a steamroller. As a species, we continued uncontrollably, resulting in the near-demise of our world. We can no longer close our eyes to what is happening on a tangible, geophysical level, if you despise recovery, cooperation and a sense of community: imminent destruction.
To withdraw ourselves from this self-destruction would have been impossible if we had not shifted our mindset and priorities, if we had not realized that doing what is good for humanity goes hand in hand with doing what is good for the earth. The most fundamental change was that we, collectively, as governments, citizens and companies, started to adopt a new adage: “Is it good for humanity?”
A Short intensive message from the Caribbean Blog Authority to the Caribbean Region.
Community coins appear all over the world. From the Bangla Pesa in Kenyan slums to the London Brixton Pound: alternative currencies make a different economy possible, in which groups of people can give value to things that are today considered economically worthless, or with which local economies can become more resilient. How does the phenomenon work?
It is absurd for our money system to work with monoculture, while we know from biology that if there is something wrong with that one culture that you are planting in your field, you have a huge problem. We also saw that during the financial crisis of ten years ago. "
In nature there is almost no waste, everything is reused. Just as we can use the natural cycle for our own gain, we must also be able to come sooner or later to a diverse ecosystem of money that can do us all good in, among other things, the Caribbean.
For deep consideration I wish to quote the following:
People who are concerned about sustainability - with issues such as climate change, environmental degradation, food and water shortages, population growth and energy consumption - are inclined not to worry too much about the money system. They are also not looking for solutions in monetary innovations. Even economists who are also concerned about sustainability are rarely aware that our money system systematically encourages unsustainable patterns of behavior that eventually threaten the survival of people on this planet.
Is money monoculture or a large pyramid scheme that increases inequality in the world.
There is hope:The good news is that the information and communication revolution that we are experiencing today is pushing us in the right direction.
The Caribbean Region is facing major challenges.
If you don’t agree with me, I respect that, but this is just my personal opinion.Thanks for reading anyway.Triggers are smoke signals which tells you there is fire somewhere….
Stimulating a circular economy is an excellent way to make society more sustainable. Particular attention is paid to making material flows more sustainable. However, the possibilities to make the labor factor more circular are often underexposed.
With
a circular economy, the intention is to make material flows not
circular, but circular. This is done by making optimum use of
the value of all materials. Examples of this are extending the
lifespan of products, reusing materials and handling everything we
use efficiently.
A
circular economy creates new jobs, but it cannot be filled just like
that, says Hans Stegeman, head of Research and Investment Strategy at
Triodos Bank. For this, the labor market must also be made
circular. The labor market is currently still too linear. If
people do not fit the linear model, they lose value because they
cannot perform optimally.
Optimal
value
This
applies less to a circular labor market. For example, people who
lose their jobs are not immediately ‘lost’, but quickly find work
again. This means that the value of manpower can be used
optimally. This is important because the approaching aging wave
will put more pressure on the working part of the population.
One
way to get employees to work optimally is by having them retrain or
retrain, so that they have more knowledge to do their job or have
them change jobs if necessary. The happiness experienced by
employees at work is of great importance for optimum output. If
people are not satisfied with their job after a while and cannot
change jobs, their productivity decreases.
Flexible
employer
In
a circular labor market, it is also important that knowledge that is
available to employees is not lost. Perhaps the knowledge gained
can be used in a completely different field. This requires a new
balance between job security and flexibility. This balance can
be achieved with flexible employership, whereby someone with certain
characteristics is taken over by another employer with the same
employment conditions. This keeps employees motivated.
Let us dive a bit into the Freedom of Money and the life energy what I believe is related to each other.
But first let me clarify something. Life energy is in my opinion the willingness to live and the eagerness to live every moment of your presence. And I know you might think, yes but because I have no money flow I am not really willing to live. But please be 100% honest to yourself. Is it for real that money is the thing, that you don’t like to be here and live or is it something else?
So you just said, the money flow is related to the life energy who is running though my system. Yes but, the moment you are free these two are related, no life energy, no flow of money. As this works instant in my life, it may take a while to readjust in your life. The ‘but’ is about the state of your freedom, the more conscious and free you are, I believe the more this works for you.
The moment you are stil playing in games, giving energy to something outside yourself and taking life energy from someone else, you are still not consuming your own energy. So this won’t work at all. The human who is playing in the power game, is dependent on life energy what we get from people, things, animals and activities outside ourselves. Where we gain our life energies.
Let’s say you are a balloon, but in order to have a certain money flow you have to fill the balloon. We are used to fill this balloon with energies outside ourselves. The air we put in the balloon is the life energy from others, the bigger our money flow the bigger the balloon and the more life energy from outside ourselves is needed.
The moment we can shift this energy consuming from outside ourselves to just our own life energies, we never need any other life energy than our own. We never have to look and search outside ourselves and we can be here now and enjoy the Freedom in money.
I was doubting if I would share this all with you. I know this may feel inspiring and discouraging as well. So I want to share a few quick notes how we can shift this and how we are able to start consuming our energies.
First we have to quite with all the things we do, what we don’t want anymore. We loose our own life energy and we are not able to use them ourselves.
Second you should stop using someone else their energy and give back what is not yours. I mean this energetically.
Start using your own energy and start spending money on you, out of love and only on things you want.
Shift your energy flow from outside to inside and discover your own space of treasure filled with life energies in the size you want.
The last point, I have to admit, is not something I can tell you right here, as in matter I can but this won’t work without all the energy work and releasing from gravity first.
As the matter is, this is one of the many things I teach at the moment. In this business together, I will take you from your current situation, the human prison where you might find yourself in now, into the state of totally freedom, the state of self realization. As I am so grateful and so amazed how deep and how far this program is going to take you when you decide to join us.
I have to tell you that this program is not testing the waters, it is not just something and I ask you to jump and trust yourself to fully let go.

If we look how rapidly things are changing, I dare to say that five years from now you will not recognize the world we are living on. I strongly believe that cryptocurrency and blockchain will uproot life. Yes how the roots grow afterwards… We will hope to see this.
Let me tell you this first before moving deeper in the stuff…What is blockchain?
A blockchain is, in short, a way to securely verify transactions and identities by storing and executing a small part of the verification process in several places. This allows you to check with whom you do business and also check the origin of what you exchange. Whether it’s bitcoins, churrasco, rum, sex, soya beans or jeans.
Cryptocurrency: no hype
Be noted that many successes have been achieved by the blockchain so far.
In five years’ time, I think, there is nothing that is not available through the blockchain. Cryptocurrency and blockchain are not just a temporary hype, but it will take us further in the digital future of doing businnes. Flash back in time how the world was thinking about the internet.
Nowadays it is inconceivable that a company does not have a website. This also applies to cryptocurrency. But cryptocurrency and blockchain will not only improve companies, it will transform them. You are going to make what comes out of the process. You can not say that you want to make a new carburetor, for example. What comes out of the process depends on the people who take part. You bring together a bunch of smart people and you start. You do not know if a new car, rocket or a pair of shoes comes out of it. You have to be willing to make what flows out of synergy. If you can not accept that – then you are no longer in charge of business – you will not succeed in the cryptocurrency / blockchain world. It sounds maybe as fiction….but time will tell !
The value of the idea
The value of the idea has/will become zero. Everybody has an idea a hundred times a day, it’s about the implementation, the organization and the work in the direction of that idea. And even then you sometimes end up with something that does not even resemble what you once intended. The people who understand that there is no longer a boss, no central authority or central design, those are the people who will soon earn hundreds of millions. All others will fail. If you think you can start a business and tell people what to do, you better not even start. Nobody works for me. Nobody works for anyone. That is how the world no longer fits. The rules will come from the process. The old-fashioned power structures are spread around the world. Imagine how a manager never met most of his/her employees. You have to forget everything you know about business operations, money transactions and marketing. Everything changes and there is no central control anymore. ‘
How blockchain changes the world
I believe that almost no one starts a business because he has an idea. Usually it is precisely the fact that he / she knows a clever, interesting group of people and wants to bring them together. It is precisely this smart group of people who together can name the best process. For example : a club of people who started to design a rocket. In the process, they then focus on the rocket engine and then on the fuel system of that engine. In the middle of that process, they realize that the challenge is not the fuel system, but the fuel itself. As they focus on the fuel, it is more about the refining process. These people have gone from building a rocket to oil refining. It’s just like that you have to move in future business. It will soon be the case in all companies around the world. Be alert.. Be prepared !
Once again I believe and dare to tell you that cryptocurrency will changed the world in five years from now. I furthermore believe that financial power will look very different. Yes think about or imagine that banks will NOT exist anymore.
All governments will have to think about how they will maintain their country if no income tax can be levied anymore. They will not be able to collect the money, because they do not know where the money is, who it is and where it is transferred to. Gone will be the time to stand in lines. You will not need someone else to do something with your very own money. Do people already realize that you will be able to run your financial this from you bed or lazy chair. It is already happening !
Blockchain changes society
The society will also change drastically. If you want it or not, things will change. Think about the fact that pension will no longer exist. The boundary between work and private life will disappear slowly. If you live in the blockchain era, those two will be the same. Pension will mean nothing, zero nada.
In the blockchain, it means that you and I will no longer feel synergy with a group of people because they work on make money in their process. So I go to another blockchain where they are in a golfing process. And tomorrow I will go to the process of sailing, and the day after to hiking. You can call that retirement, but in fact nothing changes. Only the process group you choose to participate in will change. I hope I am clear enough.
Everything happens at the same time in the blockchain. It is no longer about the idea, but about our willingness to abandon the idea in favor of the process. The here and now changes continuously. You are no longer a telecom company or an oil company. The company is constantly changing, there is only a constant present. No past, no future. As it develops now, we adapt to it.
We live in the Universe of so many connections it’s unreal. Nothing stays the same, nothing is forever, this Universe is changing. We have seasons, we have good, we have not so good but everything works out for the highest good of all. Spiritual development is the way to pursue transforming the realms of our lives. We are all on the same journey but we are in different places. Some of us forgetting the true treasures in life. We choose to reinstate the true treasures guidelines. The car isn’t your true treasure guys and if it was you would be the happiest person in this planet. If you have two or more Ferrari cars you would be the happiest craziest person on this planet. A car is the means to get you from A to B, C, D. We are happier when we are walking not when we are driving. Most people including myself don’t enjoy driving I know what I would rather do.
Tons of money in the bank don’t make you the happiest person, it is a serving source to pay for something such as services. I get a service I pay for the service with the money I have in my bank. It doesn’t make me happy it makes me thankful I have the money to pay for my services. I have needs and I have wants just like everyone else, I am paying for my needs, the most essential needs, bills, services etc.
I am thanking daily for the guidance I receive, my list of affirmations is constantly growing. I am an open channel for the divine intelligency flowing though me. I am thanking the Highest of all for the highest good of all. This life is a realm of miracles one after another I am learning everyday how wonderful our Universe is how protective, loving and magical life is and how deserving it is to leave this gift of life. My affirmations give the concrete base the foundation to make my spurs of magnificence of majestic unity. The quality of our lives, the spiritual development, the intervention of the world’s best spiritual teachers, healers, angels in the Gods unity making the Divine unity that everyone wants and dreams about. The first thing you think about in the morning the last thing you think about when you fall asleep. This is a life long journey for years and years and years, the pattern of the sacred desire, the true majestic magnificence of the marvelous Universe. We are relying on historical founding’s, science works hand in hand but we need history lessons because it helps us staying sane. We are living in a universe of associations.
