“The sluggish economy is creating a situation where the young people in Japan cannot cherish their desires or have prospects for their future. Also, the decline in Japan's economic capability is resulting in a declining presence for Japan's foreign policy as well.

“We need to think about what cooking is, what context it takes place in and what its relationship to the world of art is.

“If your dominant intent is to feel joy while you are doing the work, your triad of intentions - freedom, growth and joy - will come quickly and easily into alignment. See your "career" as one of creating a joyful life experience. You are not a creator of things or a regurgitator of what someone else has created or a gatherer of stuff. You are a creator, and the subject of your creation is your joyful life experience. That is your mission. That is your quest. That is why you are here.” IfsFeelsJoyStuffGrowthCareersCreativitySubjectsCreationCreatingIntentionCreatorMissionsLife ExperienceQuestsJoyfulDominantAlignmentJoyful LifeTriads Author:Esther Hicks

“Before modern man can gain control over the forces that now threaten his very existence, he must resume possession of himself.

“Green is not just about renewable energy. It's also about creating a new direction for the whole economy. This requires government to step up, not step back, creating the kinds of mission-oriented public organizations that will enable us to tackle climate change - as ambitious as those that got us to the moon. It also requires the financial sector to be less short-term since we know that short-term finance has distorted incentives and directions in areas like biotechnology.” KnowsKindWholeGovernmentEnergyTermStepsEconomyMoonCreatingAreasOrganizationGreenClimateClimate ChangeFinancialMissionsFinanceAmbitiousIncentivesShort TermStep UpRenewable EnergyNew DirectionsBiotechnology Author:Mariana Mazzucato
