We stand at a critical juncture in human history. The pace of change is accelerating and we are moving towards a future of infinite growth and infinite potential.

The ever increasing amount of power (knowledge, internet, technology) at our disposal makes it easier for each of us to follow our natural curiosity early on to contribute meaningfully and uniquely to civilization.

If we do it right, freedom and collective advancement will be paramount. In this future people are free to be curious, creative and useful. Leading to a golden age of prosperity and civilizational advancement.

If we don't do it right, we will have the opposite future. With excruciating conformity, dependence, surveillance and the undermining of human potential. Leading, inevitably, to the fall of civilization.

The exciting future is right there in front of us. But it can only be achieved if we, the people, unify in the pursuit of this future. If we can do that, it is just a few years away. If we cannot do that, it might never come.

This is why I have crafted the Advancers Philosophy.

We can ensure our exciting future by becoming Advancers: By reigniting our natural curiosity and by being the most useful we can be. Whether big or small. Leading to collective empowerment, scientific progress and a win-win situation for all.

There are many challenges ahead of us and it will not always be easy to ensure this future. Because old structures, privileges and deliberate misalignments that work against our collective interests and freedoms run very very deep. But we must persevere.
