More money. More connections. More holidays. More, more, more.
In this short episode we look at how this 'disease' is going to get us nowhere, and what the alternative is.
Throughout my research journey I come across a number of ideas and thoughts that just seem to stick around. They were around thousands of years ago, and yet they are reiterated by the modern man.
Here are some of them...
