If you’re not on Meetup and want to attend, just contact me through this site.

A TED talk by Jonathan Haidt makes it easier to explain some of the potential benefits I see from using the Shared Situation Guide. In this post on the Shared Situations site, I explain why and summarize. But you’ll probably like the talk for reasons of your own too.

Quick update on the Variety People LA meetup group …

I created proximity thinking to help us with both big and small challenges. The first paragraph of this post makes some points I’ve been thinking about for a while now. Recently I realized I had not written about them! If you know someone who might get this and/or get into it, please pass it on. If you find this post or the Shared Situation Guide beneficial, please proxri via links in the post. If you don’t know, “proxri” (pronounced prox’ree) is short for one or more ProxRewards, which are rewards made with the proximity in mind. My 1987 Saab has 300,000 miles and it’s starting to fall apart. See more about my circumstances, which are part of the proximity of this situation. Thanks!

Love this. Explains a lot of my history! After much wandering and anguish, I settled on this idea of being a variety person, and it’s partly why I started varietypeople.org.
