Local Ownership

Local Ownership =

• Who are you?
• Where are you?
• From Whom are you?
• When are you alive?
• How long have you been alive?
• Where were you born?
• What do you know?
• What do you care about?
• Why... about everything...?

This list is a list of "local ownership" at the Individual scale. It leads us to the concept of a "Sovereign self". Notice, "Sovereign" is capitalized as a sign of respect for its definition by administrative authority within Society. Self is not, for it leads as a humble being of one among many, with respect for the knowledge that it actually holds the fire of liberty within its beating heart. Local ownership at the Individual scale is both subtle and absolute. Society is made strong by this reality.

Local Ownership =

• Where does your food come from?
• Where do the materials that built your house come from?
• Where do you bank?
• Where do you shop for soap, or clothes, or cosmetics, or band aids?
• What fuel do you use to warm your house? Cool it? Heat water?
• What kind of vehicle do you drive?
• How did you buy your home? 
• Are you a renter?
• What tools do you possess?
• What skills do you possess?
• How do you make money?
• Where are your sources of money coming from?
• How do you source resources for your personal life?
• Do you own any incorporated identities?
• What structure do those incorporated entities function with?
• What activities are you involved in locally with each ID you possess?

This list of "local ownership" represents the scale of each Family unit in Society. Guardianship by both blood authority and legal accountability resolves here with the inherent Human Right of reproduction and sustainability under personal Sovereign control. As you diagnose the importance of local ownership in your own life, it becomes obvious that the data structure, its visibility and use, connected with local ownership is of critical importance. Leverage is produced by the management of integrity between any two people, or entity ID's.

Local Ownership =

• Who are you working with?
• What are you working towards?
• What partnerships are you affiliated with?
• Who pays you money?
• Why do people pay you money?
• Who do you spend your money with?
• What do your relationships value about those relationships, beyond money?
• What local issues do you support?
• How do you give to local efforts?
• Do you export local efforts?
• How do you export local efforts?
• What effect do your sourcing and exporting have on local efforts?
• What data do you use to reveal information about local efforts?
• How do you utilize this information locally?
• Where do you store this information?
• What type of connection do you utilize to access this information?

This list of "local ownership" represents the scale of our participation in Society. Community activity between families of Individuals is the heartbeat of any Society. The capability to personally influence any community of interest is an inherent Human Right of free will and relationships with others possessing the same. Here, we setup our beliefs about what we value, and we share our contributions with others in personally chosen ways. As a Society, we Agree to come together on equal ground, and each of us personally hold the key for our own self-driven motivation for differentiation as leaders, creators and seekers of happiness.

Local Ownership = You.

There exists the potential for infinite differentiation at the point of the Individual. This leading edge life taking place in real time, every now and again... is the manufacturing party of information, its combinatorial diversity, and its capacity to becomes useful as both input and output in ways that scale as we perceive possibilities is enormous. 

You are one of those people.

If you are willing to grab control of your own education, to start young by choosing to never just show up as a customer of life ready to receive what others are providing to you, but INSTEAD... always show up as a maker of life ready to take what others give you by their hard work, and turn it into something personal, unique, and useful to you. That is when real education begins here on Earth University.

You are being sought by every device and technology looking for information manufacturing capacity in Society. Which ones do you choose to use?

Local ownership is a choice. You get to decide how you do it.

There are infinite ways to succeed. There are infinite ways to fail.

So remember to "fail forward" in every attempt, and be guided by your own inspiration.

Make magic.

Make it local.

Own Yourself.
