Gaining Momentum on our Epic Journey |
Our last edition of New World News™, published in February, was all about moving into action. And, move into action we have! Here it is July, and we’re just able to pause long enough to publish the newsletter. |
We spoke in February of our sense that the “train had left the station” on Humanity’s Hero’s Journey, as well as our own here at CtNW. We’d gotten the “conductor’s” call to “put movement in the movement,” headed quickly to the departure platform, and shared news of our initial action adventures as the station faded quickly behind us.
Since then, the momentum of our metaphorical train ride has continued to accelerate and seems to be moving toward “full steam ahead.” As you’ll see in this edition, things are definitely gearing up and we have plenty of exciting news to share. Before our specific news, we’d like to share some of the broader vista we see from our “train window” as we look out over the landscape of humanity’s great transition.
As we steadily progress along this amazing adventure, we see signs everywhere that urgent readiness to unite and mobilize ourselves to co-create the New World is emerging. Change agents everywhere seem to be in the final stages of preparation and experiencing a greater sense of urgency to mobilize as a collective force to co-create a brighter future for humanity. There is a sense that we have created a surplus of energy that is now primed to move forward into coordinated, collaborative action. |
All (Rail) Roads Lead to the New World
Meanwhile, the vista that passes by us along this train adventure shows us that our old world systems and structures have also been gaining momentum, albeit in the other direction. While the forward momentum of change agents and their communities toward collective action to create the New World is increasing, so is the speed at which our current societal systems and structures are demonstrating collective dysfunction and inability to take us forward at all.
Taken together, this dynamic provides a perfect opportunity to begin coordinated, coherent creation of the New World. As the old one falls away, it is encouraging to know so many change agents are ready to unite around a deeply shared vision and create the systems and structures that will support it and replace the ones no longer serving us.
Which brings us to our specific news. |
CtNW for Change Agents: Summer Workshop Tour |
 CtNW Summer 2012 Tour Stops |
Change Agents: Are You Ready to Unite and Mobilize?
This summer, we’ll be in multiple locations throughout California offering Coherent World Building: How to awaken, engage, and unite humanity to create the New World.
If you’re a change agent with passion in your heart, fire in your belly, and a burning desire to birth a new humanity and the systems and structures to support it, we invite you to join us.
The workshop is perfect for change agents who:
▪ Are ready to move into coherent, collaborative action to awaken, engage, and unite others to create the lives, communities, and world that can sustain and support a thriving new humanity.
▪ Have ideas, solutions, resources, and networks for change, and who would benefit from an empowering framework to leverage their work in common purpose with others on the same path.
▪ Feel powerless, frustrated, or overwhelmed in the face of the scale, scope, and complexity of our many global challenges, yet who still wish to empower themselves or their communities with a practical and viable way forward.
Join us at one of the tour stops listed below, or empower your community by hosting a workshop (we are currently looking for a host in the SF Bay area). Hosting is easy and your workshop fee will be enthusiastically waived in appreciation of your leadership.

May Magic: A Monumental Week in the City of Angels |
In May, we traveled to Los Angeles to meet with a team of collaborators, New World movers-and-shakers, and all-around awesome folks. It was a whirlwind tour of strategic meetings, speaking engagements, discovery, and partnership building.
As is often the case when people who are each working for the good of all get together, the week was magical. Synergies were discovered, new partnerships were formed, collaborations began, and we all walked away knowing our visions were part of a cohesive whole much greater than the sum of our individual parts—grassroots New World co-creation at its best. In fact, our Summer Tour (above) is the initial result of the connections we made that week in L.A., and the team has much more in store as we unite as a collective force to begin co-creating the New World together.
Read about the great folks we met and synergized with during our time in L.A. and with whom we continue to collaborate. Alone, we are forces of nature. Together, we are the New World in the making. Check out their amazing work and join them, join us, join the world-building party! |
The "Pre-Natal Council" Meeting

Yes, this all happened in one week!
The train is speeding along, indeed. |
Ultimately, this newsletter will be the voice of humanity speaking to itself for the first time about who we TRULY are and how we TRULY want to live. It’ll be a reflection of the concrete world-building work being done around the world, supported by CtNW’s coherent building framework. It’ll show the New World emerging, as it emerges. In this section, you’ll see reports from the field, local highlights, global impacts, new projects, and featured New World Innovations. |
Debuting Our First Field Report!
Here's what a few of CtNW’s new collaborators have to say as they relate their experience from our L.A. strategic gathering. |
Andrew, 14, Co-Founder of Creative Youth TV, says he is ready to assist in the co-creation of a new world, one that unites us all.
“I was expecting to walk in a room with older people in a bunch of suits. I was a little nervous until I opened the door and was greeted by a bunch of nice people. While I was there I felt comfortable. They showed me that kids do have a voice! I felt as if kids weren’t able to be heard or express their opinions until the meeting. I learned not only more about me but about how screwed up this world is and that if we don’t fix it fast it’s going to be left to my generation. The workshop gave me hope that people do have a grip and that they do have ways to save our planet and to help sustain it. They also showed me that all we have to do is come together to make this planet self-sustaining.” |
Jacquie Chandler, Executive Director of Sustainable Tahoe, reports:
“Feel: Our conference table was transformed into an earth altar, the opening water ceremony opened the tap, we shared our passion, our purpose entered the stream of co-creator consciousness, and with crystal reflection it became clear, that if we aren't stepping up to write a new story for the world - who was? Wave after upon wave of heart-felt insight carried us thru the next few days. Result: Yes!..I'm not alone, you are not crazy, and our vision has friends! The LA water circle increased my flow on the Sustainable Tahoe story I'm midwifing right here, right now. DO: Weave with CtNW group when possible, share the water, be a 'hub' and seek ways to increase currency for all.” |
Nahid Mokhtari, PhD, Founder and Spokesperson for the Foundation for the Education of the Heart, says:
“There is actually a way to manifest my dream. Let’s get to work. Our gathering was fun, light, and playful. I actually felt my own expansion as everyone in the group was speaking. This was one of my most significant heart resonances, nurturing, and bonding within a group.
As a result, there is hope for the actualization of the dream I have carried within my heart to create the New World: a world that the truth within each heart is revealed and we live in the freedom of that truth.
Now, I feel I am guided to the next phase of my life to collaborate and co-create that which does not currently exist from our whole integrated selves. This is my work! This is what excites me, brings me joy, and radiates my being. I am grateful for the space that was provided.” |
In this space, we share helpful tidbits to further introduce you to CtNW. In previous editions, we covered other basics about CtNW. If you missed these, you can find them on our web site’s Resources page. |
In this edition, we’ll share some features of CtNW not found elsewhere.
CtNW is an experience-based social action architecture that:
▪ Offers a clear line of sight between a world in crisis and an amazing new one. People experience for themselves where we are, where we’re going, and the body of work we’ll be doing to get there. This gives us direction, clarity, hope, and a feeling that we have the power to change things.
▪ Uses transformative World-Building Workshops people host locally as the vehicles for world building. Within a cohesive global strategy, people directly experience that we have the reason, vision, power, and technology to create an amazing New World, and begin literally creating it together during the workshops.
▪ Ensures local autonomy and maintains global coherence. Because people build locally on a common framework, it empowers them to transform their lives, communities, and the world simultaneously without prescribing or controlling.
▪ Recreates wholeness with wholeness. We engage peoples’ whole selves (physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual), leverage whole systems (every sector of society), and focus on the good of the whole (everyone, all life, and the planet).
▪ Self replicates. Each workshop produces whole-system alignment with our deepest truths and highest aspirations, concrete projects, plans for building physical New World Communities, a growing population of world-builders, and contributions to Humanity’s Global Vision™, which compounds and accelerates global transformation.

We CAN Do This!
I sat down to write a note from my heart for the newsletter. I ended up writing a blog post instead. Apparently, my heart has a lot to say. I’d really like you to read it, and I think you’ll be glad you did. In it, I convey why I absolutely know that creating a world that reflects our deepest truths and highest aspirations is not only possible, but probable; why doing so is not a dream, but a necessary and practical reality; why I will not waver in This Work; and why and how each of us hold the key to making that world a physical reality.
Read We Can Do This!
All the best, |
We CAN Do This!
A heartfelt expression of my confidence in humanity’s capacity to create the New World and the potential of CtNW to help empower it. Favorite Quote:
"I’m not talking about getting on board with some vision a politician, guru, CEO, or expert puts in front of you. I’m not talking about complying with someone else’s wishes or becoming robots in some totalitarian state. I’m not even talking about embracing my vision. I’m talking about embracing—REALLY embracing—yours!">
