RCI Latest News
We watched the most inspiring, uplifting video recently. It gives one more confidence in future for our children and grandchildren and makes you proud to be a human (well, almost).
To see this video on internet click on the link on the “Link and Downloads” page. Otherwise type in http://www.getabundance.com/indexb2.php. You have to type in your name and give your email address because they then send you the first chapter of their book to sample. They also send you access to the video. It is free. Although it is one hour long, you can stop it or pause it at any time. It was so good we watched it one evening without pause. We were fascinated! Joe Polish is a good presenter, telling you how he offered a prize of $10m dollars for the first commercially viable space flight despite not having $10m. How did he raise the money just a few weeks before the prize was won? The $10m sparked over $200m in research. He used this model to improve the oil spill treatment used in the gulf by a factor of x. (I don’t want to spill all the good news).
Then he gets you really excited about what computers and robots are going to do for us in the future. This video is inspiring. Get your children, grandchildren, business partners etc to watch it. It will help them to think about where the world is going to in the next twenty years and how to be part of the progress, not simply a pawn to change.
