My highest value is contributing full-out in a non-hierarchical self-organized chaordic-collaboration of transformational possibility makers doing whatever they can to build bridges over which humanity can walk into a sustainable human presence on Earth. We started in 2006. We call it Trainer Guild (www.ncrtc.eu).

Recently 6 of us Trainer Guilders (3 couples, plus some kids) bought a seminar house in Bavaria, Germany, as the physical location of a nanonation (www.nanonations.org) called Puls der Erde (www.pulsdererde.org). The thoughtware of Puls der Erde emerges out of the context of radical responsibility.

Our nanonation is a seed-crystal of next culture in the global ethnosphere, cutting new forms of consciousness that others can more easily follow. It’s the result of decades of experimentation and not-so-rapid learning: Beep! Shift! Go!

Millions of people could be taking their authority back from external systems and moving into their own nanonations. What slows this down? One model says there are two ways for getting warmer water while taking a shower: turn up the hot or turn down the cold. In terms of human possibilities the hot has been turned up since day one. The cold comes from our thoughtware.

For the last 40 years I’ve been working with small teams beneath the radar in USA and Europe figuring out how to upgrade human thoughtware. Along the way we’ve assembled a stunning array (www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RR0cE7RPYk) of tools, distinctions, and thoughtmaps for healing and archetypal adulthood initiatory processes (www.nextculturepress.org). It is a treasure of immeasurable value. We call it Possibility Management (www.nextculture.org/about-possibility-management/en).

What would you do with a treasure like that? I’ll tell you what we’re doing. We’re trying to give it away as fast as possible to as many people as possible all over the world, open code, copyleft (www.youtube.com/user/CallahanAcademy/videos). Can you help us?

Humans are born with empty thoughtware banks. This means no language, no culture, no beliefs, no rules. We learn all this from the people around us. Where did they learn it? From the people around them.

Without knowing it, we are using outdated thoughtware passed down from generation-to-generation for thousands of years. We use very old thoughtware to duplicate what does not work. Just because you are using a certain brand of thoughtware does not mean that is the only kind of thoughtware you can use. At this point you might want to ask, “What other thoughtware is available?”

Thoughtware is not what you think about such as the content learned at school and through books and the media. Thoughtware is what you think with. Thoughtware can be upgraded in transformational training spaces such as Expand The Box (www.nextculture.org/etb/en) and Possibility Labs (www.nextculture.org/labs/en).

The point of upgrading your thoughtware is that by changing one distinction your entire life may work differently.

Modern culture’s rules of engagement lead to planetary suicide quicker than you can say, “global warming deniers are funded by corporate psychopaths.”

Modern culture’s thoughtware comes from a context made of distinctions such as: might is right, costs can be externalized, whoever dies with the most toys wins, competition brings creativity, if some people are allowed to be rich everyone benefits, nature has no value until money changes hands, Earth orbits human needs, we are adults when we are 21 years old, it is possible to own land and resources, the government exists for the good of the people, more technology means a better life, democracy is saving the world, the USA is not a rogue nation, and so on.

If we human beings do not upgrade our thoughtware we are toast (http://clintoncallahan.blogspot.com). Einstein said, “No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it,” but he did not say how to upgrade our level of consciousness… this was left to us. We have found that the quickest way to upgrade thoughtware is to shift context.

Shifting context involves entering an in-between phase while your energetic body reorganizes itself, a liquid state. Possibility Management thoughtware recognizes that human beings have 4 bodies, not just one: physical, intellectual, emotional, and energetic. If there is no liquid state in one of these bodies, there is no change. Trainers learn to navigate to the liquid state and use golden keys to unlock new potentials.

Living transformation means taking radical responsibility for going through the liquid states and getting your thoughtware upgraded so you can create the culture you would love to live in. Living activism goes one step further: gaining the Trainer skills to navigate spaces and facilitate the healing and transformational processes that empower others to upgrade their thoughtware.
