Description

The Good Ancestor: How to Think Long-Term in a Short-Term World In a world driven by instant gratification, it's easy to forget that our actions have consequences for generations to come. Yet, throughout history, humanity has consistently demonstrated the ability to plan for the future and take action that will resonate for decades, centuries, and even millennia. Roman Krznaric argues that this skill is more relevant now than ever, and that we can all learn to think long-term. Krznaric explores six profound ways to cultivate long-term thinking, drawing on radical solutions from around the world. He celebrates the innovators who are reinventing democracy, culture, and economics, and shows how we can all contribute to creating a better tomorrow. By recovering and enriching our innate ability to plan for posterity, we can become good ancestors and leave a lasting legacy. By examining the power of long-term thinking, The Good Ancestor offers a hopeful vision for the future. With its practical and inspiring ideas, this book is a valuable resource for anyone looking to make a positive impact on the world.
