My work has been focused on how I could help the world be better for everyone and everything – I was trying to promote selfish (good for me), selfless (good for others) synergy (better together). In 2012 I started making blog posts, only 3 that year. I posted about my attempts to generate comprehensive improvements and how others were doing the same. #SelfishSelflessSynergy
Over time I started using it as a scratch board for my ideas to let others know about what seemed to be interesting information I was learning and working through. Academic work takes years to get published, has been published in not readily accessed journals, and often it is dated by the time others see it. I therefore used this blog to let readers know about what I thought were interesting developments and issues.
My repeated theme is about how to generate comprehensive benefits. COVID-19 has made abundantly clear that we are interconnected and interdependent. Now, more than ever, we must work together to generate what we all want: comprehensive benefits by creating pervasive, reciprocal, selfish, selfless, synergistic interactions – Everyone and Everything can benefit.
It would be great to get more interaction, and more benefits. Please contact me, share posts, and let me know your thoughts.
To help initiate some interaction, I have provided this list as an easy way access past posts/information. Please share how you generate comprehensive improvements. Also if you want me to address anything special or have questions, please contact me at BeWellr@gmail.com. Thank you.
Use this list to access ALL posts.
