#REDIRECT[[A Resource Based Economy]]
 
+
A holistic socio-economic system in which all goods and services are available without the use of money, credits, barter or any other system of debt or servitude. All resources become the common heritage of all of the inhabitants, not just a select few. The premise upon which this system is based is that the Earth is abundant with plentiful resource; our practice of rationing resources through monetary methods is irrelevant and counter productive to our survival.
+
 
+
Modern society has access to highly advanced technology and can make available food, clothing, housing and medical care; update our educational system; and develop a limitless supply of renewable, non-contaminating energy. By supplying an efficiently designed economy, everyone can enjoy a very high standard of living with all of the amenities of a high technological society.
+
 
+
A resource-based economy would utilize existing resources from the land and sea, physical equipment, industrial plants, etc. to enhance the lives of the total population. In an economy based on resources rather than money, we could easily produce all of the necessities of life and provide a high standard of living for all.

== Conflict Management ==
+

Conflicto no supone violencia, sino que es un componente básico de la vida humana. Representa un fenómeno continuo y constante en la interacción humana. Es algo habitual en la relación entre grupos sociales y en nuestras relaciones interpersonales. Desde esta perspectiva, en la '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conflict_management  resolución y transformación de los conflictos]''' está el camino para conseguir la paz. Se deja a un lado el concepto de paz «pasiva» o negativa como eliminación o ausencia de conflictos, para asumir la idea de paz «positiva» de búsqueda y de resolución no violenta de conflictos. La paz así entendida no es sólo un valor o meta, sino que se considera como un proceso.

==  Intuitive eating ==
+
 
+
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intuitive_eating Intuitive eating] is a nutrition philosophy based on the premise that becoming more attuned to the body's natural hunger signals is a more effective way to attain a healthy weight, rather than keeping track of the amounts of energy and fats in foods. It's a process that is intended to create a healthy relationship with food, mind and body, making it a popular treatment for disordered eating and eating disorders. Intuitive eating is also known as the non-diet approach, normal eating, wisdom eating, conscious eating.

* To be proven wrong should be celebrated, for it is elevating someone to a new level of understanding, furthering awareness, Peter Joseph
+
 
+
* You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckminster_Fuller Richard Buckminster Fuller]
+
 
+
* Pour atteindre la vérité, il faut une fois dans la vie se défaire de toutes les opinions qu'on a reçues, et reconstruire de nouveau tout le système de ses connaissances, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blaise_Pascal Blaise Pascal]
+
 
+
* Historically, the most terrible things - war, genocide, and slavery - have resulted not from disobedience, but from obedience. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howard_Zinn Howard Zinn]
+
 
+
* The ultimate freedom for creative groups is the freedom to experiment with new ideas. Some skeptics insist that innovation is expensive. In the long run, innovation is cheap. Mediocrity is expensive—and autonomy can be the antidote. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Kelley_(author) Tom Kelley] (IDEO manager)
+
 
+
* If we don't believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don't believe in it at all. [http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noam_Chomsky Noam Chomsky]
+
 
+
* La seule façon de traiter avec un monde non libre est de devenir si absolument libre que votre existence même est un acte de rébellion. [http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Camus Albert Camus]
+
 
+
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_H._Pink Dan Pink], author of "Drive":
+
 
+
The three most important natural motivators of human endeavor and excellence:
+
# Autonomy: The urge to direct our own lives.
+
# Mastery: The desire to get better at something that matters.
+
# Purpose: The yearning to do what we do in the service of something larger than ourselves.
+
 
+
External rewards extinguish intrinsic motivation, diminish performance, crush creativity, crowd out good behavior, encourage cheating, become addictive, and foster short-term thinking.
+
 
+
While complying can be an effective strategy for physical survival, it's a lousy one for personal fulfillment. Living a satisfying life requires more than simply meeting the demands of those in control. Yet in our offices and our classrooms we have way too much compliance and way too little engagement. The former might get you through the day, but only the latter will get you through the night.
+
 
+
Control leads to compliance; autonomy leads to engagement
+
 
+
* In science it often happens that scientists say, "You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken," and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Sagan Carl Sagan]
