​"I remember all the stages in my career where
I almost didn't have enough confidence to try
for something, almost didn't have the guts to
follow something I was excited about doing,
because I didn't know anyone else who'd done
it, or other people made me question it."
Amal Clooney

'What and When'
'Why and How'
​
​
​
But Something Happens
We are born innovators, visionaries, and creators
with powerful intellectual curiosity. But, we are guided
away from our interests, talents and gifts to become
the 'what' of who’s getting hired and 'when,' ( hire-education ). The result of this wasted, exploited, potential
is the unnecessary cycle of human suffering.​
​
​
At a time perhaps like no other,
people around the world are considering their purpose in life, their 'Why' — their Calling.
Data and the "Big Quit" tells us people hate
their jobs — the meaninglessness of it all.
​
Microsoft research found 41% of the global workforce plan to leave their jobs. College students often feel lost at graduation. 'What
and When' thinking leaves leaders stagnating in
the old, along with the rest of us.
​
From a posting on
The Daily Dot 6/22/22
"I don't know if you guys are on LinkedIn, but
the amount of people with more degrees and
years of experience than me who are being
laid off by the thousands is so disheartening.
I don't feel hopeful at all about starting to job hunt
and start a career in anything because these
people have a 10-year jump on me and here they
are, entering a recession, getting laid off and
I'm here just fully unemployed. It's bad out there."
​
Rahel, 17, Cologne,
for DW by Peter Hille
"I want a secure future where I can study
and work without existential fears. I'm afraid
I'll have to work in a job that doesn't make me happy."
​
We live in a world that
fawningly invests in innovation and creativity
without investing in the disruptive potential
and promise of visionary beings. Imagine the
people in therapy, wondering what is wrong with
them, when in fact they may have yet to actually
meet their true selves.
​
Why Smart People Hurt,
by Eric Maisel, explores these impediments.
​
…society and the world disparages smartness.
.
…doing work day after day and year after year
that fails to make use of your brain power.
​
…living in a society and a world that does more
than disparage smartness, that actually silences
smart people ( because the power and privilege
of leaders is undercut by smart people like you
pointing out fraud, illogic, and injustice ).
​
Instead of medicating our children…
​
​…why aren't we teaching this?
Discover your Calling. Develop your Calling.
For a life well lived, use your Calling for a better
you and a better world.
​​
​Why are we medicating and stigmatizing our
young? Instead of asking our children what they
want to be when they grow up, ( or funneling
them into market-world options )ask them what
world problems they would want to prevent
when they grow up.
​
Ask them 'Why' these problems exist. Ask them
'How' these problems persist. Ask them 'How' these problems are perpetuated. They grow to think, ​
innovate and be themselves.
​
What if education actually helped students
identify their unique interests and talents
and nurtured those talents over the years?
​
In times of change the learned deal with a world
that no longer exists. We live in a world that grades students on how well they learn the answers
we give them. Perhaps we should grade students
on the questions they ask. It's time for students
to grade the curriculum.
​
"Children are the living message we send to a
time we will not see."
John F. Kennedy
​
​"Do not train a child to learn by force or harshness;
but direct them to it by what amuses their minds,
so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each."
Plato
​
"The mind is not a vessel to be filled but a fire to be kindled."
Plutarch
​
"I can prove at any time that my education tried to
make another person out of me than the one I became."
Franz Kafka.
​
Let's build the new with
'Why and How' thinking.
(The foundation of deiterLIne)
'Why and How' succeeds.
​"Intellectuals ( 'What and When' ) solve problems.
Geniuses ( 'Why and How' ) prevent them."
Albert Einstein
​
​
"There comes a time where we need to stop
just pulling people out of the river. We need to
go upstream and find out why they're falling in."
Desmond Tutu
​​
​
​"Talent hits a target no one else can hit;
Genius hits a target no one else can see."
Arthur Schopenhauer
​
​
​Nearly everyday of our lives we hear, "What
are you going to do and when?" And yet, very
little, if anything, changes. Change has almost
come to mean four quarters for a dollar, prolonging stagnation and little advancement for civilization.
​
​​Let's cease pestering this 'What and When' world
to change. Let's simply build the new with 'Why
and How', your new ideas and ways of doing things.
​​
​'What and When' reacts to symptoms and
confuses activity with accomplishment.
​'Why and How' thinking replaces discipline and toughness.
'Why and How' focusses on first principles,
completes and succeeds. 'Why and How' is the foundation of deiterLine.

Michael Bhaskar, Human Frontiers The Future of Big Ideas in an

"The secret of change is to focus all of your energy,
not on fighting the old, but on building the new."
Dan Millman — Way of the Peaceful Warrior

"We cannot solve our problems with the same
thinking we used when we created them. The
world as we have created it is a process of
our thinking. It cannot be changed without
changing our thinking."

About the Quality of Less Suffering
deterLine is unique just like you. deterLine
takes a position that you are just perfect.
Like so many of us,
you are perhaps just experiencing the symptoms
of 'Formed Personality' as coined by Eric Maisel
in his book, Why Smart People Hurt — limits freedom
and increases defensiveness.
Carl Jung talks about unhappiness even among
those of us who seemingly have it all.
"I have frequently seen people become neurotic
when they content themselves with inadequate
or wrong answers to the questions of life. They
seek position, marriage, reputation, outward
success of money, and remain unhappy… even
when they have attained what they were seeking.
Such people are usually confined within too narrow
a spiritual horizon. Their life has not sufficient content, sufficient meaning. If they are enabled
to develop into more spacious personalities, the neurosis generally disappears."
