A daily guide with insights about how change happens in nature and what that looks like for humans, as part of nature. The reader is guided through the process of individual change, then change in how groups function, and finally how natural change works in a society. The idea is that if we don't change our ways our species will soon go extinct. But we must start with the way we attempt change. We must change the way we change if we are to survive and rediscover our natural role as part of earth, not apart from and against the earth. A natural, functional religion for those who are not religious, who are rational and committed to ethical behavior.…mehr

Autorenporträt
Tim Daniel's ancestors were Welsh and Scots Irish. He grew up outdoors, in an area once conquered then abandoned by the mighty Spanish empire. The place has always been bathed in sunshine, enveloped in vast blue skies that turn into gorgeous sunsets every evening. He felt protected and understood inside a ring of majestic desert mountains. Near his home was a large rock covered in hieroglyphics from an unknown canal-building civilization that rose and then vanished over 500 years ago. Tim took in the lesson that beautiful as the desert is, we must keep moving and adapting as things change - or die. He played on foothills overlooking a city that was taking up the challenge with gusto. Everything it did was bold and new. "Why can't we.....?" started many conversations. It was a place where people did things in new ways instead of the way they had always been done, trying to see if it might work better. In such a place a young man's role models naturally combined the architect's daring with the engineer's caution. Tim is a trained designer and musician. The creative, disciplined freedom of the studio has shaped his approach to everything he has tried to do. He studied history and behavioral science. He has lived in the U.S., Germany and Canada. Tim met his wife in 1987 on a long bus ride across the U.S. To their surprise, they discovered they shared the same last name, along with a sense that something was deeply wrong with the culture they knew. They have lived a migratory life ever since, on a mission to find something better if it exists. Or to create something new, different and better if it doesn't. Over the course of his life, Tim has earned his living as a janitor, designer, delivery driver, staff member, and manager. His longest stint was as a small business owner. Currently, he is working out how to be more helpful as a husband, dad, son-in-law, father-in-law, grandad, dog owner, neighbor, friend, citizen and writer. His newest friend is a retired marine biology professor and the adults in his immediate family are trained in applied biology and law. The honest feedback his intimate circle provides in response to his behavior and thinking acts as a nonsense filter that catches most of it, but not everything.
