The Creative Society

I think we are moving into a creative society where increasingly everyone has to 'create' in one way or another. When you are dealing with well-educated artistic people who can only be creative when they are operating in harmony and are 'flowing' in their activities, you have to provide a very different organizational structure and have to have a very different company culture and working environments. Computer technology costs are approaching zero over time, information has become free, the only way to add value as a human being in future decades and centuries is to develop your soul connection. The members of this community should be well-positioned for this social and economic shift.

You can find a nice description of this idea in Richard Florida, 'The Rise of the Creative Class' who developed this idea first. Though the missing dimension in this book is the spiritual angle. If all that matters in the end is communication, creativity and connectivity, spiritual path travelers should have a comparative advantage over the less connected folks. Eventually, our education system should pick up on this theme as well and probably already is.
