Critical thought.

That actually solves every other issue in this post.

[–] 18107@aussie.zone 10 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Except empathy. You can still decide to keep people as slaves when it benefits you and you don't have empathy.

But more seriously, empathy and an absolutely gigantic reduction in greed.

Quiet spaces. Just sitting and breathing for a while is a valuable activity. It doesn't have to make money to be worth doing.

Thinking time.

The first mover advantage is so overwhelming in so many arenas. If we had the time to think we'd probably make much better decisions.

[–] FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

This is so true. I've realised that the root of my success is that I think about things more deeply and/or more often than pther people, and I'm more patient. I started to lose that part of myself and then started to fall behind. Now i'm on the path back, making my life less hectic andntrying not to fry my dopamine receptors

Many great comments. I'd like to add green&walkable cities :3

Kindness and solidarity

[–] StickyDango@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago

Less consumerism, more mindfulness.

Being able to get paid for something you truly enjoy doing so it doesn't feel like work at all, and actually be able to live on the pay you receive.

And like a lot of others have mentioned, empathy and kindness.

It's obviously AI! We must slap AI into every single thing on this planet and let it take control of our entire lives.
