Upcoming Discussion: How can we organize our lives and focus on service?
What is the Change the World Club?
by Jacob De Arman
The thing that keeps me up at night, and inspires me in the morning is a group I started called the Change the World Club. I love it so much because it’s a group exploring the question of what it actually takes to change the world through self-mastery and service.
Last summer I started having weekly phone calls with a friend to discuss how we can do some good in the world and strengthen families, because we thought that’s the best topic to address in our society. Eventually more people started joining the discussions, and we began branching out to more topics. We interviewed people over the summer about what makes relationships work and then published the first episode of our podcast. That was a perfect starting point for learning to make ideas happen to change the world.
Because influence begins from within, we have discussions about ideas on a weekly basis that help us to refine our understanding of how the world works. The structure we have established is to learn truth, live truth, and share truth. In other words, Learn, Live and Give.
Learn: To learn truth we have been interviewing people, reading books, discussing ideas, and trying to bring our project ideas to life.
Live: To live truth we have self-mastery discussions about relationships, health, time-management, and living true to yourself. We have mentors who help us, and we keep each other accountable for becoming our best selves.
Give: Finally, to share truth we have project groups to develop a weekly newsletter, a monthly podcast, t-shirts to spread good principles, and videos.
Not all of these projects are yet fully active, or as consistent as we would like them to be, but they all exist on some level. We are learning and growing as we go.
We will use these resources to create writings, videos, books, and other media to promote truth in the world. What we are doing is basically discovering and sharing truth to empower people to make better choices, live better lives and become contributors in the community. There is no mystery of how to change the world—people have been doing it since the beginning of time.
No, the only question is are you going to be one of them?
