what happens when your brother gains?
what happens when your brother gains?
do you lose?
do you gain?
obviously you don’t lose
not necessarily
why would you lose?
some things are scarce
infinitely many things are not scarce, are abundant, are emerging
do you gain when your brother gains?
what happens when your brother wins?
is it conceivable that your brother should gain more then he could use?
what happens to that which he had gained, which he had not used?
what happens to that which he had gained, which he had not used?
obviously it is redistributed, now or tomorrow, anyway
who gains from that redistribution?
you do
they do
we do
you don’t want your brother to lose
you want loser to lose, yes; you want the troublemaker to lose
but you don’t want your brother to lose; you want to make him win
you want your brother to win
your brother wins — you win
your brother wins — you win
this is how it works
how does it work in practice?
obviously innovation serves everyone
what about happiness?
is happiness zero sum?
can happiness be shared?
can happiness NOT be shared?
is your happiness diminished by the presence of someone?
can someone steal your happiness?
can you truly be happy, and have it stolen from you?
you want your brother to win
you want your brother to innovate
you want your brother to be happy
for yourself
for the world
for your brother
it’s as simple as that
there is no scenario in which you want your brother to lose
there is only one direction — up — and that’s where you want to be going… ALL of you want to be going
find those that do — and go with them
take everyone else with you, if you can
you want your brother to win
you all win
you don’t want a fraud to win
but don’t worry — frauds can’t win
to be a fraud is to lose
help the fraud by bringing him to the truth
tell him he doesn’t have to cheat people out of value — he can bring about new value
and then he does
and you all gain
there is no scenario in which you want your brother to lose
it saddens me when i see all this resentment
don’t you see you gain from their gain?
don’t you see you waste energy putting others down — rather then bringing yourself up?
don’t you see you could all work together and fly?
what’s wrong
please relax
take care of yourself
then others
when your brother gains — you gain
don’t let anyone tell you otherwise
don’t waste any energy over any other unproductive, critical perspective
bring others up to go up
that’s all you should worry about
bring others up every day
people you work with people you meet people you live with people you’ve no business with
bring everyone up
and you go up
and it’s just the truth of it
