If you don’t know Greta Thunberg by name, I’m sure you’re familiar with her work. She’s the 16-year-old Swedish environmental activist that was behind last week’s global Climate Strike.
She’s been publicly campaigning for at least a year — starting with her weekly climate strikes in Sweden to hold her government accountable to UN emission’s regulations.
Burning the candle at both ends may temporarily add to your bottom line. But you’re working hard, not smart.
And since you hear so much in the news about recessions, crashes, corrections, bear markets, post-pandemic economies…
You stockpile your hard-earned cash into low-interest bank traps: savings accounts.
Have you ever wondered why it feels so good to cross something off of your list?
There’s a psychological principle, known as the “Zeigarnik effect,” named for its discoveress Bluma Zeigarnik, that comes close to addressing why.
You see, we tend to remember things we need to do better than things we’ve already done.
So even if you’ve crossed four of five items off the list, your brain focuses on the one you have left.
Greta’s recent celebrity has called into question something very important: The media’s tendency to whitewash struggles which have typically belonged to indigenous peoples and people of color.
Now fortunately in Greta’s case, the space she made for a spotlight is big enough for the, in some cases, hundreds of other teens heralding the same cause. (500 at the UN summit, in fact.)
Today, we’re going to shine the light on four other activists who also fight the good fight, and deserve to be recognized just like Greta does.
The human race has been listening to the gut for as long as we’ve had axioms — what do you do when your belly rumbles?
You eat.
What do you do when you go with your gut instinct?
You listen to your emotions.
What do you do when there are butterflies in your stomach?
Some people fall in love and start families. Some of us totally clam up and give into anxiety.
But no matter what, we heed the gut.
