Beyond the Crisis Treadmill: A New Way to View Time
Imagine waking up one day and realizing that your smallest decisions-from how you respond to your child's mistake to whether you recycle that plastic bottle-could impact thousands of people centuries from now. This isn't science fiction; it's the premise behind "Longpath," a revolutionary approach to decision-making in our chaotic times. We're living in what's called an "Intertidal period"-a dramatic transition phase where old systems are failing while new ones emerge. Like the oceanic zone where land meets water, the ground beneath our feet feels unstable as established institutions show signs of strain. Our brains evolved for short-term thinking-eating all available berries made sense for hunter-gatherers focused on immediate survival. But this evolutionary adaptation has become problematic in our complex modern world. We've built entire systems around this short-termism: quarterly earnings reports, two-year political cycles, and dopamine-driven social media feedback loops. We're trapped in "presentism"-a Hall of Mirrors version of the present where everything happens simultaneously with no history or future, amplified by 24/7 news cycles that collapse time into an endless now. What makes this moment unique is our unprecedented connectivity and technological capability. For the first time in human history, we possess both the ability to imagine and implement non-exploitive futures through global cooperation, and the capacity for collective self-destruction. The choice hinges on whether we can transcend our short-term, reactionary thinking.
