The Transformational Leader

Ep 349: The Ontology of Politics


Listen Later

In this episode, we will talk about politics. Politics is on the ontological side, which is the study and science of being. The being underneath the words that we say and do.

Politics is a system by which every four years or so, is that there's an election. In that election, the public votes for whichever party or candidate runs for a specific position.

Now, inside the system, the public votes and the votes get tallied, and that will be in power for the next four years.

The ideal of politics is the leader who is the purest, cleanest, and has the most integrity and all that rises to the top. A lot of us want that kind of leader. When someone doesn't play by those rules, we get outraged and frustrated. But the truth is, the rules are actually what wins the game. In the end, it is not about someone with the most integrity, purity, or honor. We end up inside the game of politics with whatever leader is best able to play the game.

You won't want to miss the discussion about the ontology of politics and how we can relate to it in our everyday lives. Enjoy the show!
