The Best Game on Earth
“You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.”
The epiphany for creating The Best Game on Earth came in 1980, at the height of the cold war. After an extended conversation with a Soviet diplomat, Yuri exclaimed to Norie, “You know, Norie, it would be SUCH a pity if we destroyed each other – we are so NICE!”
Yuri’s sincere comment sparked in Norie the realization that we humans have designed our current dysfunctional “life game” over millennia, often unconsciously. This largely unconscious old “life game,” which suppresses our natural wholeness and aliveness, now threatens to destroy much of life on Earth, including us.
Today we urgently need to create CONSCIOUSLY a new and inspiring “life game” that recognizes that most human beings are indeed nice when the “life game” is designed to nurture our good qualities, our wholeness, and aliveness, in every way possible.
The core of The Best Game on Earth is simple: the Playing Field is the Earth, we are the Players. We’re playing to reach our goal while following 10 simple rules or guidelines for play.
To make the play even more interesting and effective, The Game has 8 components that each work well separately and when integrated, form a great vehicle to help us transform civilization rapidly while making the process fun.
THE GOAL: Peace, health, prosperity, and justice universally on Earth by the Year 2030.
