The new design

This summer I traveled across Maine. I also spent time in Boston and New York City. At the end of this beautiful trip I realized that America needs to make a shift into a new living design. Our current living model seems outdated. I felt it as I drove through towns and saw their living conditions. I felt it as I exchanged ideas with people of different walks of life. America has hit a wall. Our thinking has become complacent and stuck. Our individual and country stories need an urgent update; reinvention is a must. The rest of the world is slowly leapfrogging over cemented mind-sets and moving at high speeds towards new prosperity. I believe that a green, sustainable and non-toxic lifestyle model is the new paradigm and our new opportunity to find our edge again and a new global leadership. Of course there is a catch – it all starts at an individual level; it is bottom revolution and evolution. Yes, self-responsibility.
