On the classic debate between individual & society:

It's becoming increasingly clear to me that it's exceptionally rare that an individual follows a counter-cultural path from the collective.

(THREAD)
3-5% of humanity has figured out their purpose (Jim Collins)

2% of people self-transform on their own (Tom Bilyeu)

~1% reach self-actualization & transcendence — "the healthiest 1% or fraction of 1%" (Maslow)

0.5% reaches the highest level of human development (Ken Wilber)
How do we increase these numbers?

Rising standard of living, education access, equal opportunity, environmental systems redesign, #GameB

Some say UBI or making the lower levels of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs free or more easily obtainable.

What else?

How about those humans that make it to the top levels of development?

It's almost like nature designed humans in a way that the individuals who reach the highest levels of human development are programmed to give back to the collective.

Full circle.

It turns out you can be selfish *and* save the world.

Can you imagine a future humanity where these numbers reach 10%, 25%, 50%?

"The purpose of free society, I would suggest, is to systematically increase the percentage of people who do exactly that." — Jim Collins
