Zone 3

Personal/Social Assets, Evolutionary

The quest to improve the human condition requires clarity of purpose. Are there ways that we can strengthen our personal assets base to become a valued crewmember on the journey? How can we help humanity not only solve our current challenges but also boldly go where no one has gone before?

This zone asks you to focus on improving your ability to notice, engage with, and help create the leading edge of innovation that is bubbling up all over the planet. To do so, we encourage you to start from the inside, with self-inquiry and personal development, while also looking outward and tuning in to the accelerating advance of knowledge and innovation.

Key areas of Zone 3 focus

  • Inspiration & Learning
  • Embracing diversity (social, worldview, ecological)
  • Personal/spiritual growth
  • Social change advocacy and nonprofit involvement

We offer RTracker as an example of a burgeoning new trend of “lifelogging for the Quantified Self,” here via an iPhone app focused on flexible personal data tracking. A user can create and use his or her own trackers, for topics such as exercise, sleep quality, car travel, patient progress, etc. We haven’t used this or any of the similar products; this is sure to be a rapidly-evolving product category.
