ne commence pas par rassembler du bois,
couper des planches et distribuer du travail,
mais reveille au sein des hommes le desir
de la mer grande et large.“
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
„If you want to build a ship,
don't drum up people to collect wood
and don't assign them tasks and work,
but rather teach them to long
for the endless immensity of the sea.“
if i take this as a maxim
and try to learn from it,
i would transform it into
the following sentence.
„If you want to save a planet,
do not tell people what to do
and do not tell them what's wrong
and what is conducive, but teach them
the yearning for the greatest treasure:
the immeasurable, rich, precious,
powerful and sensitive Mother Earth.“

(*there seem to be a lot of trainers, coaches
and business consultants who reject this sentence, though.
they deny the power of desire, regarding it as a weak energy,
just evoking inner dreams instead of external agility.
these persons obviously cannot or do not want
to understand the deep meaning of that sentence.)
