Lost in Control
We’ve spent 10,000 years adapting the environment to suit our needs, now the time has come we adapted ourselves to suit the environment we have created.
In this episode, we explore a deep dive made byNotebookLM’s AI, based on the thought provoking article "Lost in Control" by of Fitfull Futures Explorer and Author ofFuturize Yourself andThe Futures Effect, Tom Meyers.
"Lost in Control," by Tom Meyers argues that humanity's constant pursuit of environmental control, exemplified by technological advancements and the self-improvement industry, has paradoxically created more chaos and anxiety. He contrasts this with Kevin Kelly's optimistic view that problems drive progress, proposing a solution: Meyer's "Futurize Yourself" methodology, a four-step process (Interspection, Retrospection, Introspection, and Prospection) designed to foster personal evolution and protopian thinking.
This approach prioritises self-control and incremental progress, enabling individuals to adapt to an unpredictable world by focusing on self-improvement rather than external control. The text ultimately advocates for a shift from reacting to external pressures to proactively shaping one's future with, from and on purpose.
