At my winter solstice gathering most everyone was talking about “paradigm shifts.” It’s in the air, especially in the economy—it’s time for a major shift in how we live our lives on this planet. To help effect this change, I’m challenging myself and you to make a different kind of new year’s resolution—to change an attitude or belief or way of acting in the world which might help bring about the real change Obama and others are talking about. I’ll have some specific suggestions later in the week.
