Collective
Enoughness:
Together
we have
everything we need.
It is
only on our own that we experience
scarcity.

When
we’re little, we’re taught to share.
When
we grow up, "sharing"
becomes "every man for himself"… Read

If
only we had more money,
more customers, more staff. That scarcity
message drives everything from businesses
operations to community benefit work.
Scarcity
thinking
leads us to hoard and hide and compete –
whatever it takes to keep others from taking
our stuff.
Scarcity
tells us that the
only way for us to have enough is for others
to not have enough.
Here’s
the secret,
though:
As communities,
as businesses, as individuals and as a planet,
there is enough.
Because together we have everything we
need. It is only on
our own that we experience scarcity.
Communities
have houses and storefronts and vehicles.
Neighborhoods are filled with talented
people. Those resources are all around us,
waiting for us to notice them and activate
them.
To
experiment with Collective Enoughness in
your own life, try asking…
- Who else cares about this thing I care
about / want to do?
- What resources do we have together
that neither of us has all of alone?
- What would it make possible if we
pooled our knowledge, our resources,
those things we hold the most dear?
Collective
Enoughness works in all aspects of life,
including the business world. Don’t

Creating
the
Future
is a
collection of
people around
the world,
supporting
each other in
a grand
experiment.
|
|
|
|
|
The
experiment:
To
determine how
much better
the world
could be if
the questions
we ask in our
day to day
lives are
bringing out
the best in
each other.
If
everyone,
everywhere, is
bringing out
the best in
every person
they encounter
– and if the
systems that
guide our
behaviors are
built to bring
out the best
in all of us -
how much
closer will we
all be to a
healthy,
humane world
that works for
all of us?
