So in today&#8217;s episode, It&#8217;s going to be, an overview and an invitation of and fabulous event coming up called: Teach The Futures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So I&#8217;m going to read to you. it&#8217;s actually called World Futures Day: Young Voices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And it&#8217;s happening March 1st, this year, 2024, all over the world. And if you happen to be listening to this ahead of time, I invite you to check it out and to sign up. It&#8217;s not just for young people. It&#8217;s for anybody who cares about the future. And it&#8217;s very much in alignment with my mission here on how to write the future podcast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I really care about humanity, all of us lending our voices and creating our futures, plural together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There&#8217;s not just one future, there&#8217;s many futures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We all have different life paths and goals and strengths and interests. And I think we need to exercise our imagination and talk to each other about what we would really like for the future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I very much, encourage you to check out World Futures Day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They are highlighting young voices because it is your future. Those of you who are young, it&#8217;s going to be more of your future than it is mine. I mean, obviously, I plan to live a long time, but you&#8217;re life and the life of potentially your children and their children and on and on down seven generations those are the people that we want to include in the conversation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So I encourage you, instead of waiting for people to invite you to lend your voice, find ways to lend your voice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And actually, I am inviting you and I have been invited myself to come and join in.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And so this World Futures Day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&#8217;s March 1st, 2024. It&#8217;s a 24-hour around the clock futures conversation. Hosted by Teach The Future in partnership with the Millennium Project, as well as intergenerational facilitators from around the world. I&#8217;ve signed up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&#8217;m going to be a part of it in my time zone here in the Pacific time zone in the United States and it&#8217;s been going on for a few years. It is held every year on March 1st to spark a global conversation about the future. And they really want, and I do too, I really want to ensure that young people are part of the conversation because it is your future we&#8217;re talking about.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And Teach The Future in partnership with the Millennium Project together with friends, are bringing in this specific edition to focus on young voices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We really want to hear your vision for the future. And we want to hear everybody&#8217;s vision for the future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So I highly recommend that you come and check out this event.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What happens is you sign up for it and you&#8217;ll be given a Zoom number to join in at the appointed time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And I believe it&#8217;s 5:00 PM local, your local time, wherever you are in the world. So I signed up. And mine will be happening at 5:00 PM March 1st, which is Friday for everyone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, it&#8217;s going to start, at 5:00 PM in Auckland, New Zealand, and then it just going to move around the world and 5:00 PM in Fiji, then 5:00 PM in Australia, 5:00 PM in Brisbane, then Tokyo. Singapore, Bangkok, Dacau, New Delhi, Islamabad, Dubai, Moscow, Cairo. Amsterdam, London.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are all at 5:00 PM. Local time. The Azores, Nuuk Greenland, Sao Paulo, Brazil, Halifax. In Canada, New York, Mexico City, Calgary, Los Angeles, which is my time zone. And then Juno, Alaska, which will be the last 5:00 PM call.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So I will be in the second to last 5:00 PM call and my time zone. There&#8217;s probably going to be a lot of different people there. And, just join in, listen in. And if you can&#8217;t join in, think about what is your vision for the future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What would you like?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sincerely, what would you like? For yourself, for your community, for your family, for your region, for your country?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And if you are excited, join into this event. If you stumble upon this episode after World Futures Day, mark your calendar for next year&#8217;s March 1st and reach out to local organizations that are working on planning for the future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I would bet every region, every company I know, in the San Francisco Bay Area, they have a 2050 project. Most areas in the world, most companies and organizations and towns and cities are thinking about this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We&#8217;re in a time of great change. So, this is a great time to lend your voice, lend your thoughts, and join in the conversation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And then I invite you, if you are a novelist, a science fiction or fantasy novelist, or both, like I am. Or you just want to write interesting scenarios about the future, about your vision for the future, I encourage you to reach out.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;d like support, I do work with a few people one-on-one, who are really excited to get their book brainstormed written and edited, and polished.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So reach out if that interests you. I have currently just a few openings for that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And to help you, to get started, I have a World Building Workbook for Fiction Writers that will help you think about a lot of the different aspects of culture that you can address.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now what&#8217;s not included in my World Building Workbook for Fiction Writers is a deep dive into philosophy and mindset. So I&#8217;m definitely going to be creating a part two. I mentioned religion and worldview, but I haven&#8217;t done like a deep dive on that because throughout human history and throughout recorded history and even through the artifacts that we have discovered, humans have had all kinds of perspectives on themselves, their place in nature, their place on the planet. We have a lot of different religions. We have a lot of different philosophies. So that&#8217;s something to think about.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we look into the future what is the philosophy or philosophies that we want to be living by the belief systems, the belief structures?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&#8217;m just mentioning it here. I just realized just now that this is a project that I want to work on and create a writing tool for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So that&#8217;s it for this week.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Everyone please like, and subscribe, and share.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And I just really appreciate you for listening and for showing up for your creative work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Write long and prosper.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Write long and prosper.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Loved this episode?
