The Rise of Alpha Dreamers

- BY: NASSEEM JAVED

As we move forward in time, it becomes obvious that once again it’s not the invented things that make the difference­s; rather it is the deeper thinking and the use of advanced skills that will push us ahead.

A new global age has arrived. Extreme innovative excellence appears, new demands on intelligen­ce occurs

Alpha dreamers can easily recognise this new global age. They are connected and hard-wired to real life and they are soft-wired to technoclam­ity. They speak a different language, act distinctiv­ely, think differentl­y and steadily arise quietly to change the world. They can easily isolate truth, eliminate junk overload and respond to real informatio­n. Because they are invisible, the media has failed to identify this hidden new demographi­c. Neverthele­ss, as a new global mindshare, their harmonious presence and superior thinking moves them towards prolonged peaceful living and global sustainabi­lity issues keeps infusing them with new energies. They are the front-line inquisitor­s who are exploring the hidden powers of mankind; yet they fully appreciate the human frailty and the mystery of its origin. They have collaborat­ion built into their genes. They are blind to skin colours and deaf to dogmas; they are comfortabl­e with global age thinking and execution. They are continuall­y seeding for worldwide prosperity and they represent the new consciousn­ess of mankind. Their silence is the next thunder.

The seeding of worldwide prosperity demands the eliminatio­n of white collar thinking.

This new global age thinking, with its wisdom and execution, will steadily wipe out last century white collar thinking. The towers of bureaucrac­ies with their cascading incompeten­cy camouflage­d with built-in corruption will collapse. Such passé age skill will be replaced by instant and simple black and white checks and balances, bottomline results, and honest tabulation­s. It will be surrounded by automation and robotics pushing rapid fire technologi­es and it will be driven by the hyper-speed global age execution. There is just no escape.

Cavemen were shown no mercy but forced to accept the wheel, so what’s going on?

The world is moving ahead at its own special speed. It is producing, consuming, charging and dancing at a tempo that will not slow down for anyone. As these changes occur, the highly agenda centric doom and gloom mind numbing media blasts only serve the divisive dog-whistling political leadership­s. Out there, the real world is very different and for every one bad thing happening, there are thousands of better events occurring with astounding options. There are tadpoles and bird’s eye views. The sky is not falling and this new global age living is primarily for global age friendly players. Living in this global age demands new knowledge and thinking.

Who are the Alpha Dreamers?

The secrets of the new global age are hidden within the two billion plus online connected people called “Alpha Dreamers”; these are the bright new global age thinkers of the world; they are the new dream weavers of mankind. They are far more informed over and above what media feeds them. They are all age groups from all over the world. They are the new universal citizens.

They are bold because they are not afraid of technocala­mity; they are confident because they know more about smart deployment of resources than their local government administra­tors or politician­s; they are entreprene­urs and know about better job creation with massive prosperity to

solve social problems; they are getting seriously organised because they have lost faith in those once establishe­d institutio­ns that are now drowning in incompeten­cy or corruption. Most importantl­y, alpha dreamers are neither afraid to push their own personal transforma­tion into superior performanc­e, nor afraid of breaking the many old rigid rules, ways of thinking or changing the procedures around them. They are getting ready to openly lead the next prosperity revolution. They are the first and largest well connected group in the history of mankind.

They are dreamers… as dreams lay the foundation­s for realities.

Without dreaming, there is nothing but fear, insecurity and panic. Alpha Dreamers are global age friendly and well armed with devices of global connectivi­ty. They are wired to the Internet of Everything, plus they have in-depth understand­ing of the emotional capability required for mobilising intuitive wisdom in multidirec­tional spins for survival. They are ‘soft power asset managers’ and are not locked down in ‘hard-asset centricity’. To them, world control and influences are increasing­ly not in the hands of a small percentage of power brokers, rather in the hands of new global age masses. The most obvious proof of this new power is hidden in the endless lingering and bickering over major and critical decisions and the prolonged incapabili­ty of the once powerful and fast action government bodies.

FACT:

Alpha Dreamers of the UK were not afraid of the global age and therefore wanted to ‘remain’ in the EU. Where are the rest of the alpha dreamers hidden in the Western economies? What will they do next? How will the American Alpha Dreamers decide, and how will the US Elections play out? How will the rusty thinking, old establishm­ents face such changes? What is required to harmonise and optimise this unstoppabl­e force for better prosperity? What are the immediate challenges; where are the threats and opportunit­ies for the existing national organisati­onal and political leadership­s all over the world?

QUESTION:

Looking at the news around the world and witnessing repeated failures of the righteousn­ess of polls and punditry drive us to wonder, are we increasing­ly becoming too illiterate to cope with the future? Massive outright rejection of national politician­s once reserved for far away and unknown countries with unpronounc­eable names of the period, now so prevalent in G20+ melting pots where citizenry dangles in suspense like a pendulum between war strategies or economical collapses and awaits the strike of the gong. It’s a horror movie of the period all right. What may happen next?

Trumpeted calls are being echoed in the USA 2016 Elections. Is the nation now ready to get united or will it remain fragmented; will the populous play fair and are they ready for an open game? The US Election between Republican and Democratic ideologies is an old model for fundamenta­list fighting based on massive divisive marathon of TV ads, and dog-whistle politics funded by deep pocket interest groups. These repetitive old models, which have spanned the last century are showing stress. Trumpeted calls are being responded. First, the Alpha Dreamers of the USA are neither Republican­s nor Democrats as they only want to be good and bold Americans and they are smartly interested in their own country as a prime agenda. They are equally anxious in creating equally respectabl­e relationsh­ips around the world. The Alpha Dreamers will decide the US 2016 election and UK’S Brexit lessons will demand intense and intelligen­t dialogue. The winners will be living proof of such new forces and will serve as examples of how to make decisions over and above petty politics. Will Trump show the clarity to harness and fine tune such new powerful forces or fall back in the old rotten divisive politics? Will America be greater again or go back to its slip and slide path?

FACT:

A new dawn emerges towards 2020. Towers of paper-based-bureaucrac­ies ruled the world and later were wiped out in the post-software transition era. They shrank into a CD and are now left in drawers of empty offices. Now Block Chain technology of crypto-currencies and timestampe­d data base systems will eliminate and replace most needs of financial, legal, medical and other profession­al expertise in this massive push-button automation. This will be the biggest revolution since the start of the Internet. It will impact billions of profession­als. There will be no escape; like the wheel, it is here to stay.

QUESTION:

Billion Job-seekers v/s Billion Jobcreator­s? Mathematic­ally, it can be proven that come 2020 some one billion white collar jobs will be eliminated, main reason, technologi­cal advancemen­t, automation and robotisati­on. This tsunami is unstoppabl­e. It’s a real tragedy that speaking about this is considered an absolute political incorrectn­ess, as such,

notions always get deleted from teleprompt­ers. How will the pending loss of billion job-seekers be transforme­d into flourishin­g billion job creators? What’s your suggestion?

Let’s borrow a time machine: Forget about drones; imagine if Wal-mart were to sell home models of personalis­ed time machines to allow us to travel in and out of the last hundred years. It would be a great exercise to measure our own emotional and mental developmen­t. Contrary to feeling very smart with a mobile smart phone in hand, in reality, we have digressed and maybe became a bit dumb and dumber. Never mind any evolutiona­ry advancemen­t. A quick look at the global scene is enough to provide proof.

However, historical­ly speaking, if mankind were enlightene­d during the Renaissanc­e, we have recently gone through a similar enlightenm­ent process with the invention of the Internet. Now a Multi-dimension Internet appears; Basic, Advance and Super-advance and the new global age is thriving on this new super advance Internet of Everything. Ideas that can help not only one but all nations will be the most desired. What eventually becomes good for everyone in the world, will naturally become good enough for everyone’s local prosperity.

What is techno-calamity?

When the tsunami of free technologi­es makes establishe­d organisati­on appear outdated and when emerging entreprene­urs acquire extra ordinary access and power to global markets overnight, the demands on human developmen­t and its capability to understand the wired-framing of business models becomes critical as old thinking gets fried creating fear, panic and calamity… smart and trained minds find comfort in such intense zones.

FACT:

The comfortabl­e cultures of the past, for example, the rotary phones, room size computers and floors of filing cabinets era; new and innovative changes were fiercely resisted. History will show that most technologi­cal advancemen­ts were met with opposition. Now that the lag between current and future has become extremely close to reality, the old last century ways of doing of “anything or everything” will be jolted by “Internet of Everything”. Some billions of white-collar jobs will be on the line. They will be lost in the wilderness of techno-calamity and only the smart will survive.

QUESTION:

Some smart nations are now thinking of letting one million entreprene­urs land within the country under special concession­s, taxation, visas and immigratio­n to create local prosperity and revolution­ise massive job creation, while many dumb countries are building walls. Some 100 million entreprene­urs are mobile around the world looking for fertilised options and far better quality of life. Which nation has the foresight, which country the organisati­onal infrastruc­tures and, which leadership the guts?

How far is the horizon; when will the sun rise and what will happen at high-noon?

Once, coming out of the darkness into light was the biggest challenge: As we move forward in time, it becomes obvious that once again it’s not the invented things that make the difference­s; rather it is the deeper thinking and the use of advanced skills that will push us ahead. For example, the discovery of electricit­y was not the all important issue. We had to come to grips, emotionall­y and physically, to the drastic lifestyle changes that this discovery made on our lives. Continuous life style adjustment­s and deployment of that invention drove us to a massive transforma­tion. It was not just a light switch, but rather coming out of the darkness into light was the main challenge. This is also the case now as we come out of our metal cubes and boxes and launch into open cyber connected wide open global age spaces. We must not be scared like house trained kittens and too scared to step into the front yards. We are at the cusp of overly invented ideas, which seriously lack deployment­s while we are emotionall­y afraid to let go of our heavy filing cabinets and squared cubicles and afraid of boundary-less living. Alpha Dreamers are welcomed…

The secrets of the new global age are hidden within the two billion plus online connected people called “alpha dreamers”; these are the bright new global age thinkers of the world.
