Network States

one of my biggest takeaways from the naval with balaji talk this weekend

a small team of like minded people, brought together to focus on digital product innovation - has the power to and will transform any business, district, city, country, the world and space

will finally solve all of the problems that, to most, seem unsolvable and on the “live with it” side

and not just solve them but come up with something as timeless as the human nature goes, with adjustments only needed to be made as we advance technologically, biologically and intellectually

This is one of the aspects of the world today that I fail to understand.

What are the problems that cause the team to be so small? Is it possible to involve the communities at large, as part of the “team”?  How to enable society to work supportively and collaboratively?

it’s hard when you’re starting from zero. And for good reason.

To convince people that you’re a trustworthy person to lead and represent the cause, you need to prove yourself. And I find that even, profound, because it takes a true leader.

Someone unbounded by money, politics, government. A Savant.

And I am BEYOND excited to see who the great leaders of the next generation will be. This topic truly brings tears to my eye 😢

I believe that with great ideas, people will naturally come, but it will unfortunately take a while for the ideas to fruit… 

A little bit about me,..,
espeicially when you’re someone like my group, who avoids VC funding at all costs
so we’re stuck working day jobs out here, while building the future in our free time

In fact, I don’t know why i’m here; I am going against my best friend,.., I have simply grown impatient and need to find the people I best resonate with to accelerate my learnings ASAP.

to involve the communities at large all you have to do is present your vision and ask them to join you 

if that’s something they’re aligned with and want to accomplish - it’ll happen

US literally got to the moon at one point by aligning the vision and joining in together - people of any race, gender etc.

Game theory says that you have to enable society to work supportively.

second part is that who says you have to enable society to work supportively etc? 

that’s why we’re on farcaster and onchain, you don’t have to enable anything - it’s already enabled, open, there for you to act on

the issue or a part of it is that most people haven’t realized it yet and don’t study on their own but rely on universities etc 

but regardless of those issues, understanding will grow, successful examples spread and people want to look at that new “shiny thing” that will replace their 9-5 jobs and give a new meaning into their lives

“No one was successful yet  in **making it so**”

🖖

problems are obvious, take a look at any big team/corporation/government - it’s impossible to keep it efficient or at least no one was successful yet in making it so, which can be a law of nature 

small teams are who been changing the world, starting out and trying something innovative including the device you used to write that message

at apple, they have small startup like teams as a part of the culture to keep innovating
