About Digital Life Guide
An information database on how to improve yourself and the world around you.
Three factors have left huge gaps of essential knowledge in the average person. Our current education system, parenting practices and cultural focus on time wasting activities instead of self-improvement.The goal of this project is to provide the necessary life skills and knowledge to help people reach their full potential. With the hope that this collection of material will cultivate more well-rounded and capable people who will contribute to making the world a better place.
Theory/Reasoning
A majority of the problems plaguing mankind can be traced back to a single issue. If we can find a solution to this issue, it would naturally fix a majority of those root problems. Examples of problems: Climate change, Environmental pollution, War, Poor health, Substance abuse, Social inequality, Hate/Intolerance, Animal cruelty, Lack of resources/Ability to acquire resources, Chronic poor life decision making.
Source Problem:
A lack of knowledge/understanding about the true nature of reality and the effects of our actions. This is caused by a primitive and inadequate teaching system. To evolve and survive we must transform the way we communicate. Simplification: Unconsciousness or lower levels of consciousness are the cause of the world’s problems and we need to achieve a higher level of consciousness (understanding the true nature of the world around us) to overcome them.
Solving the source problem:
The communication technologies we have developed in recent decades has the means to create an evolved teaching system. The internet holds the collective wisdom of mankind and yet the majority of humans do not access this knowledge even though it is available to them. There is a gap between the information that exists and the people who need it to evolve to a higher level of consciousness. We need to create a bridge that connects people to the available information. The system of connecting information to people is Life Guide.
Problems that are creating a gap in the transmission of information
Problem:
Current teaching systems (Schools/Online Schools) need to be redesigned to be more effective.
Solution:
Create new teaching systems that utilize emerging technologies.
Problem:
They don’t know what to look for or where to find it.
Solution:
Information filtering – Life guide will be a refined version of the information available on the internet. Once a person has found this Life Guide, they will have all of the specific information they need to improve themselves laid out in an easy to find format. The guide will tell you exactly what to research for your specific life goals and link you to suggested future learning.
Problem:
They don’t have the time.
Solution:
Information Proofing – Our team will have already proofed all of the information for quality and accuracy so they don’t have to look around to find the information they are looking for. Because it takes significantly less time and effort, people will be more likely to take the opportunity to learn. Knowing that it could take hours to find what you are looking for or possibly not even find it, is a major deterrent to learning.
Problem: Lack of drive to find the information.
Sub-Problem:
A mainstream culture that does not value learning/self-improvement
Sub-Solution:
Teach social leaders in various subcultures how to adapt the tools put forth here, so that they can teach others, and also embody these ideals. New community members will see that self-improvement is common practice and naturally conform to that lifestyle due to our natural herd mentality. Hopefully over a long period of time this will transition from subcultures to mainstream culture.
Sub-Problem:
Religious views that prevent the desire to expand knowledge due to a close-minded belief about the nature of reality. Usually, this external belief system tells them how to think and doesn’t allow them to consider their internal beliefs about information they learn.
Sub-Solution:
It takes a long time, but close-minded views can be overcome by continuous exposure of information. Once you open the door of knowledge it’s hard to shut it. This type of person won’t go looking for information, but if you can get it delivered to them they will eventually change to an open mind-set. We plan on delivering this perspective changing information on a regular basis through social media platforms and paid advertisement.
Sub-Problem:
Not understanding the value that knowledge can have in your life. And because of that, not evolving into a person that teaches themselves.
This is the core of the problems associated with implementing this project… and because of that it is the hardest part of this project to design a solution for. Teachers have been looking for the answer to this since the beginning of time. And whoever can figure this out will have the golden key to unlocking the potential of humankind and save the world from almost certain destruction. If we can’t come up with an effective solution to this, it will limit this teaching tool to only those people who already have a desire to learn. Which is a much smaller portion of society and most likely not enough to create a large enough shift in our collective consciousness to bring about the change necessary to save humankind from itself.
Sub-Solution:
Influencing a paradigm shift by transmitting the specific information that leads to the understanding of the importance of teaching yourself. We will create a video that is so expertly designed that it can express this concept in a way that it is truly absorbed. It has to be so interesting that it hooks the viewer immediately to buy time for following info to be derived. Every segment of the video must be interesting enough to buy time for the next segment. If any segment prevents the viewer from viewing the whole video it will most likely not be effective. Once it is created we will do extensive testing to ensure its effectiveness. This will be the first course you are directed towards on life guide as it will allow the rest of the material to be used to its full potential. Once created this video will be used as the main advertisement for life guide, used to draw people in and get them hooked. We will be using social media platforms and paid advertisement to expose this video to as many people as possible.
