Urgent Evoke

A crash course in changing the world.

We are a global organisation dedicated to solving the world's global problems. You are joining a network of agents who have taken individual responsibility for saving the world.

At Evoke, we believe in democracy - not the kind of democracy where you vote for someone to take responsibility for your future, but the kind of democracy where every individual counts. We believe it's up to us to make a difference.

Our members are people like you. We come from different backgrounds and have different talents and knowledge to contribute, but all of us have gone through a process of self-discovery and made a decision to become super-heroes. We have realised that if we wait for someone else to solve the problems around us then everybody else will wait for us. And so we have resolved to act.

Before we act, we learn. Most of the world's problems are related to lack of understanding, and because we don't have a vision for the kind of future we can build. So as well as learning and acting, we imagine. We imagine better futures, and act to make them real.

Learn. Act. Imagine. These are the keys to saving the world.

To be a successful Evoke agent, there are a few things you will need to remember. Changing the world means changing people, and people often resist change. Always remember that people have their own reasons for doing things and that you need to understand them if you want to change anything. And, no matter how hard we try, we can never be sure that we're right. Good Evoke agents listen much more than they talk. Wisdom may be found in the most unlikely places, so always encourage people to tell you what they know or believe, and be respectful of what they say.

Most importantly of all, Evoke is built on the philosophy of positive change, the principle that we build rather than destroy. In your career as an agent, you will encounter many obstacles and much opposition. If you meet these problems head-on, you will be in constant conflict. If you learn to avoid conflict, to turn the opposition to your advantage, then you will succeed.

Remember, always say "yes, and ..." rather than "yes, but... " and you will always have momentum. Every time you say "but" you are stopping the conversation andd have to get started again. If you always say "and" then you are always adding energy to whatever it is you are doing, while steering that energy in the direction you want to go.

And finally, if you're having problems winning people over to your way of thinking, then try doing something spectacular. If you do something to make people go "wow!" or something to make them think, then they will pay attention to you. Evoke agents are leaders before anything else, so it's good to find ways to make people pay attention to you.

It's all about branding. Not everybody has the time or education to understand the details of your proposals, but they will follow your lead if they have faith in you personally. Build your brand by doing things that communicate your values and beliefs to as many people as possible. Let them know what you stand for, show them that you care and that you know what's best. And then they will follow you in a crisis.

Oh, and finally, watch out for the enemy:

Fourth of July on the Lake

This past weekend was the annual celebration at the lake house in Connecticut. It is amazing that the lake is still so clear and beautiful after all these years. The watershed association has done a wonderful job protecting these waters from the damaging effects of development.The wood grill was finally ready to cook on, so we didn't miss the propane tank fueled grill anymore. The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Stinging Nettle

In this blog post I will focus on a plant that is abundant in our nature, and which is immensely nutritious. It's of course the Stinging Nettle. Let's start with the chemical constituents of this plant:37 % Non-Nitrogen-Extracts19 - 29 % Ash9 - 21 % Fiber4 % Fat22 % ProteinOnce the leaves are drid, their protein content can reach an astounding 40 %, which is much higher than beef, which even under the best of circ**stances can never exceed 31 % protein. In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future

FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

public servants

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
