The Opposite of Survival is Contribution

As a global species, we’ve never been so good at not dying. I’m not saying we’ve solved every horrific thing, but we have temporarily solved not dying.

If you’re reading this post, you have definitely, at least for the moment, solved the not dying problem.

The classy problem we face now is that we’re still hard-wired and soft-wired to be obsessed with survival. That obsession no longer serves us when we’ve already mastered survival.

What is life’s purpose if it isn’t survival? Contribution. The opposite of survival is contribution.

What could you contribute with your moment?
