For me '...Your thought train is always welcome! For me 'nudging' someone towards their dream can be a small deed. For example, you 'nudged' me to writing this blog, which will help towards my dream. Think of 'nudging' as small good deeds or even being supportive. Do 2 small deeds per month and in less than 10 year, you'll have 'nudged' 200 people toward their dream! How does that sound?<br /><br />Yes, I should have made a clear distinction between the basic needs limit and dream limit. Think once the basic needs limit is met, we become more willing to be altruistic. It's difficult to convince people that they already fulfilled their basic needs. Perhaps to promote altruism, we have to teach people to be happy with what they have!<br /><br />Also, how do people know when they reached their 'dream'? I guess often dreams are vague and unrealistic for a single person. Would be great if people learned how to make dreams that they could actually fulfill! This is something that I myself am still figuring out.Mario Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10761886767263971162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3377974378454096474.post-89073319516441426422015-02-13T20:37:50.694+01:002015-02-13T20:37:50.694+01:00Haha, funny thing about selfishness. Most of us do...Haha, funny thing about selfishness. Most of us don't even get to the part of helping others towards their dream, because we feel (be it "objectively" true or not) that we don't achieve our own. And we are the priority to ourselves, of course. This "of course" should not always be so obvious, but I will leave this to another discussion. So we chase after our own dream, always trying to better ourselves, occasionally letting a life partner or perhaps a friend so close, that we help them. Like, really help, not just when we're having a good time. But that's about it, most don't even dream of helping (nudging) 200 people towards their dream!<br /><br />Most would altruistically say, that it's a no-brainer: "help people toward their dream!" But I'm not so sure, even about myself. When money would be tight, most everyone would turn down even a friend in need in order to take care of themselves. Some to a higher degree than others - meaning that the limit of when this happens is 100$ on the bank account for some, but 100.000.000$ for others. That's just my unfiltered thought train...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03538104875160986570noreply@blogger.com
