The Anti-Fragile Playbook

Weaponizing Language: Pro-Tips from the Warrior-Called for Activating the Kinetic Potential to Effect Change


Listen Later

We all know that technology moves fast, but in this podcast Ruth Glendinning and Kent Dahlgren discuss an unusual example of technological innovation that will help us save ourselves: language.

To begin: think about your first cell phone; try and recall its shape, its size, and its features.

Now, compare it to the one you have today.

There's been dramatic progress in cell phone technology in the past 10-20 years, wouldn't you agree?

10 to 20 years.

Now. Try and imagine this: language (our most advanced technology) has been evolving for 200,000 years, and at a more rapid pace.

Think hard about the words you use to express your needs, wishes, and desires.

Q: are you activating this high technology?

Q: do your words launch your ideas? Or do they keep you locked in a cage?

This is not a theoretical discussion; this podcast is about immediately effecting change.

We assure you: those in power are using this activating language to full effect, and to your detriment. And it's intended for you to remain helpless, awaiting a savior.

Time to level up.

Right now, there are brothers and sisters among us making difficult choices about the relationships they are in, frequently placing them in abusive situations, just so their kids have a place to sleep.

Ruth and Kent speak of "weaponizing" language on purpose, for the proper role of a warrior is to protect and serve, with an explicit emphasis upon the least of our brethren, so to speak.

The Anti-Fragile Playbook is focused upon the necessity to source and activate local leadership, and one of the first things these grassroots leaders need to do is break the chains of their own stifled potential.

In this podcast, Ruth and Kent share several engaging anecdotes, such as an example of how the deft use of language secured the capture and conviction of a hacker for federal industrial espionage, outpacing the potential of so-called high-tech to capture the bad guy. 

This podcast is all about action - how to identify your strength, step into your power, and use it with subtlety, from a place of service, and to great effect.

It's 11:11 local time.
