That’s right! You’re the hope for our planet’s future.

Does that surprise you?  Are you bogged down with doomy gloomy news? We don’t blame you.  It can be downright depressing.  So cheer yourself up and watch Peter Diamandis’ inspiring 16-minute TED Talk: Abundance Is Our Future.

Take a deep breath and repeat after me, “Abundance Is Our Future.” Doesn’t that feel good?

Imagine a world where the average person only lives 40 years.  Or a place where 10 times more children die each year than they do today.

Well, guess what?  That was Planet Earth just 100 years ago. No kidding.  In just 100 years, technology has provided tons of solutions to everyday problems. Rapid developments in technology allow you more instant access to information than President Clinton had 10 years ago. Just think of the possibilities with 7 billion people having access to knowledge portals, such as Khan Academy.  That is powerful stuff.

Education = Liberation. Your education, combined with exponential technological growth, will produce transformative solutions: fresh water to third world villages, sustainable energy, clean air—it’s all possible!

So go ahead. Use your innate intelligence. Be creative. Think outside the box. You have the power to make the world a better place!

“Abundance does not equal luxury.  It’s a life of possibility.” — Peter Diamandis
