    Con it might be useful to bullet point the videos. Brian crams a ton of info into his talks, and by his own admission is usually kind of winging it. For me, the effect is often enlightening but also a little disorienting.

    He's quite good at diagnosing the world and the people in it. He's obviously thought very deeply on these things. I follow him pretty well there. But if you could distill his way out of this mess into a paragraph or 2, what would it look like?

    Actually, a much better question is this: if everyone on Earth did what Brian suggested - right down to the letter - what exactly would the world look like? That would help me understand his approach more than anything. There is so much minutiae in his work that it's quite easy for a guy like me to get lost in it. I need big pictures first, and then I sort of work backwards. Make sense?

    Reading his books 7x over and watching his videos 7x over would definitely make me more versed in his stuff! No argument there!

    The reason I suggested the bullet points was to give me a reason to do those things. To motivate me. It's not to make the info more digestible, it's to make it more desirable. To make me want more! To make a mental commitment like that I need to have some idea of what I'm getting into.

    If you simply hand someone a bunch of info on something it can be pretty overwhelming. I know that this information is best understood as a whole, but when communicating it to someone you still have to start somewhere Better to communicate the info imperfectly than not at all..because I don't think the average person is going to read a 700 page book on a whim, or watch hours of videos without really knowing why they're doing it. People today are lazier than they've ever been. They can barely read a post on a chat forum. I include myself in that group btw

    If I knew what "heaven on earth" meant, exactly, I might be more motivated to really dive into the material. Thing is, heaven on earth means different things to different people. Hitler thought he was creating a heaven on earth too So anyway, that's why I thought that would be a good place to start. If I knew the end game I'd be more interested in all the bits n pieces that are involved in making it happen. But look, that's just me! Just a suggestion, for better or worse. I'd rather hear it all in your words, personally. Brian is articulate and intelligent but I think you're a much better communicator than him!
