Those who are resistant to change or have closed off minds find it easy to say no.

Ridiculing them or getting angry with them will not change their minds.

In fact, it is likely to only entrench their resistance and make the situation a whole lot worse.

The process of change that is necessary is reliant upon how everyone thinks.

People will only think differently if they are confronted with information that invites them to do so. Asking questions rather than making statements will always be the safest place to begin.

People don’t buy anything if they believe that they cannot afford the cost.

A key part of spreading the word and changing minds before necessity starts to do the work for us is to remember and always bear in mind that the world that we are leaving is one where everything is about money and values are based on what money is involved.

Those who are still ‘invested’ or ‘bought in’ to the dying system, will quite literally see the change in the way of living that we must all embrace as one that will lead to loss. It will therefore be perceived as a change that they simply cannot afford.

People who have a different view that is embedded and aligned with who they are, will always respect a reasoned conversation rather than a sales pitch – especially if the first words you utter, would otherwise become the excuse to make you wrong and shut you down.

Talk to people as fellow humans and as adults sharing the same, but different experience. Use common ground to demonstrate credibility and the experience that gives value to who you are.

A win might not always be evident at the time. But if you have listened as well as spoken, and avoided doing anything that makes that other person wrong, your reason and truth will travel and have good effect.

Chaos and civil disorder could well lead to an outcome that is far worse than what we are experiencing already. It could easily deliver a way of living that it is safe to say that none of us could ever want.

The safest and most effective way to bring about and embrace effective change will be to play with and respect the rules of the game we are already playing, and that we will be playing, at that precise moment in time.

Whilst a collapse of civilised society or order would necessitate playing that game in a very different way, we must respect the way that democratic change can be delivered today.

We must and be fully committed to working with the system that we have until the very moment that it has become clear that the aim of change cannot be delivered by continuing to do so.

It may feel like it, but we are a long way from reaching that point, yet.

People will not vote for anyone, just because they decide to craft a message and turn up.

People want representation from bottom to top that they can trust.

People will only trust all of us together as a viable political alternative when they know that they are important, and they feel that they are valued and involved.

Engage the people. Take the Councils. Then take Parliament. Then and only then seek to change the rules to prioritise localism and community – Once you have legitimately taken power away from those who still believe it is their destiny to possess and to always be at the top – and will always do what they can to preserve it.

Fear has been used as a weapon by the ruling classes and an establishment that the arrival of the New World or New Earth will soon allow us to replace.

Think about how the misuse of fear in the form of media messages, propaganda and rules that have been imposed upon you have made you feel.

You will never succeed in delivering any kind of meaningful change if the only way it can be achieved is by taking actions and using messages that achieve the very same.

The New World or New Earth will and must only be built upon trust, no matter how easy the misuse of information, messages, rules or actions might feel.

If the New Earth or New World is achieved with anything less than people feeling they had freedom to choose and that they gave their voluntary consent, the certainly of a happy, healthy, safe and secure future within a fair, balanced and just system that works for everyone will be lost.

Few have the ability to negotiate terms when they are surrounded by chaos.

Those throughout history who may have appeared to do so will have either had more than a generous helping of luck, or destiny played its part on their side.

No matter what you might believe or deem to be fair or just, given all that you have experienced up until now, civil disorder and unrest may feel right. But it is very unlikely to lead to a situation where everyone whose support you need will believe and trust that you have right on your side.

Whilst nothing less than a revolution is everything that we now need, there is no need for any of us to behave like revolutionaries to achieve the right outcome.

The majority will always accept the result of a revolution for the long term, when they don’t realise that they were taking part all along.

A word of caution: Peaceful protest is all well and good in a measured way. But a complete loss of control means that control is lost of everything for everyone for at least a short period of time.

If that happens, there is never any guarantee behind who will be next to take up power.

Whilst history books most often tell us otherwise, the result of the Russian Revolution of 1917 was never certain. It relied on what we might call a lot of luck for the Communists – which was from then onwards for Russia, many other surrounding Countries and millions of people – arguably what turned out to be a VERY unlucky thing.
