The stories we tell ourselves shape our thinking and sense of possibilities.
Take neocapitalism for example. As the saying goes: “It is easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism”. Yet, in “The Dawn to Everything” David Graeber and David Wengrow upend bedrock assumptions about 30,000 years of human history. They show that there are alternatives to neoliberal capitalism.
And the same happens in science, arts, or even personal development: The dominant - and our own - narratives are limiting our options and imagination.
I believe that exploring alternative narratives can unlock new ideas, projects, and outcomes. In this blog I celebrate the untold stories of outliers, rebels, and innovators, and share some of my own reflections and creations.
Start here with the list of themes I’ve covered.
