What clicked and made you have a different mindset? How long did it take to
start changing and how long was the transformation? Did it last or is it an
ongoing back and forth between your old self? I want to know your transformation
and success. Any kind of change, big or small. Anything from weight loss, world
view, personality shift, major life change, single change like stopped smoking
or drinking soda to starting exercising or going back to school. I want to hear
how people’s life were a bit or a lot better through reading and your progress.
TIA 🙏
Are cross-post allowed? Didn’t realized this community existed and it is more fitting to post a question relating to books here then there.
Jack Forbes ‘Columbus and other cannibals’ . It made me realize that what I used to call civilization was too often the opposite. I learned (remembered) that groups of people and philosophies exist outside of the Western(or ‘modern’) line of thought who are by default silenced or drowned against the mainstream, but who we should probably listen to - considering we are walking towards growing ecological disaster. Forbes’ book and then ‘Braiding Sweetgrass’ (cause you can’t always be angry) made the world make sense again.
