Nothing comes to my mind when trying to create something new or have a conversation. My brain feels empty. What should I do?
I come from a dynastic bloodline. We were famous for suicidal loyalty, intelligence and chivalry when at war. But notorious for suicidal disloyalty, stupidity and recklessness when at peace. If we ran out of enemies to confront and kill, we confronted and killed each other. And when we ran out of each other to kill, we killed ourselves.
This was a useful quirk if our ruler didn’t want to pay us wages once a war was over. But it was an impediment if we had to govern the land for him, so his heirs would inherit it. The problem was we ended up bored witless when we had no enemies to confront and kill. So we invented our own, by picking squabbles with one another.
Where we did not have legitimate reason to pick on one another, we challenged each other to duels. We did this by slapping each other in the face with our gauntlets. We could make it hurt if we used chain mail and / or other armoured gauntlets. That made our opponents angry. But at least we didn’t have to create an argument or have a conversation.
We were suicidal in disloyalty, stupidity, and recklessness, all at the same time. It was a no-brainer, or rather, an empty-brainer. Our brains were so empty we churned the same thoughts over and over again until we succumbed to them. Kill, kill, kill, kill was our only thought. So, when our ancestor, William the Conqueror, captured England, he founded a society to keep us alive.
He did it as he had to leave his brothers, Odo and Robert, in charge of England while he governed Normandy for the French King. So he set them a challenge to survive their dynastic quirk and claim allodial title to England for him and his heirs. The King of France gave him leave to have Christmas Day off each year, to return to England, to hold annual general inquiries into his brothers' ways of fulfilling this challenge he had set them.
They learned from mistakes and planned the ensuing year’s fulfilment of this challenge. And so it went on, year in year out, for the 20 years, 1066–1086. He held the last annual general inquiry, as a public inquiry, at Winchester Cathedral. And they gave their evidence to the resident representative of the Pope of Rome. And they documented it in a survey, called the Book of Winchester. It proved the allodial title of the Shires of England as Counties and it is the oldest surviving record of the law of the land called England.
So, when he died in 1087, the allodial title of England passed to his son and heir, William II. What they did was create a cult of sustainability entrepreneurialism. And, it lasted as long as the society lasted, namely, 930 years, 3 months, and 6 days, i.e., until 31st March 1997.
By the early 20th century the curriculum and text of this savantism / pedagogy of sustainability entrepreneurialism was vast. The society had provided the local government of the nation from 1066. But it was a nepotistic and privileged society, and nepotism and privilege eventually lost favour.
This was particularly so during the French Revolution; and, after the Napoleanic Wars, calls for a more democratic system of local government marked the reign of Queen Victoria and she called on the county surveyors society of Wales and the Marchers to pilot an experiment in Wales as a counter to the Rebecca Riots, as two of her subjects were killed in the course of them.
So, Parliament took its cue from the system set up by the society. In 1888, it set up elected county councils to undertake the local government role the society had been carrying out since 1066. And in 1894 it created elected district councils to administer some additional lesser tasks. The society continued to operate as it still needed to keep its members from suicide, as nothing had removed it as it was genetic, lifelong and incurable, though manageable with the proper education, training and support.
But it was all still geared to safeguarding the interests of the nation's real estate. It all belonged to the monarch and still does. Sustainable real estate governance is the name of the game. But change to that was on the cards, and with the introduction of a formalised town planning system, freehold land reforms were introduced that gave the Crown a more distant relationship with the allodial land it had held since William the Conqueror's time.
You have to remember that the society's savantism / pedagogy of sustainability entrepreneurialism had provided roofs for their heads and clothes and shoes for their bodies and feet. And it provided food for their stomachs and water to drink and bathe in. It gave them herbs to cure their ills. And it provided enough surplus for them to sell. People had to learn these arts and crafts. So it provided education and training. People had to learn to share. So it provided laws and justice. And law courts and jails to enforce the laws and justice. The elderly, disabled, frail and insane had to be protected and cared for. So it provided sanitoria and hospitals for them. And the poor needed housing. So it provided alms houses and lowly jobs, such as stone breaking, they could do, and still have esteem.
People needed to go to market and to church. So it provided roads and bridges. And they needed defending from invaders. So it provided castles and forts and militia. They needed ships for traffic and trade with distant lands, So it provided harbours and ferries. They needed water, gas and energy supplies. It provided them. In time they needed air travel. It provided airports. They needed night lighting for personal protection. It provided public lighting. And all these works and services had to be designed, created, maintained, administered, staffed, and managed. All the personnel involved in this needed education and training. So it provided these. From elementary level, through, primary, secondary and tertiary level.
The culture of this sustainable entrepreneurialism by the 20th century was enormous. But the First World War and the Second World War, took enormous tolls on them. Their tendencies to suicidal loyalty, intelligence and chivalry in war became their undoing. They had gone to war and died. After the Second World War the society decided to put in a last ditch effort to reconstruct the economy. It did not adopt a jingoist attitude to the rest of the world. We were all to win this ultimate battle. So it engaged with the United Nations to set about this task, and European Economic Community as soon as it was able. Due to the latter I became involved in planning the relocation of the Royal Mint for its transition to minting decimal coinage. And in the development of the Galileo Sat Nav system to monitor the transportation of the Royal Mint's banknotes and coinage worldwide.
I was the youngest survivor of the society as I had been too young to go to war, so it fell to me to play a very active role in the post World War II economic reconstruction. And I stayed on after the society was wound up to sew up the loose ends. And I committed to telling the whole world about the society and its savantism / pedagogy of sustainability entrepreneurialism as soon as I was able.
Its business was an official secret until 12th May 2014, which meant I had a 17-year wait before I could publish. And my memoirs went viral, and The Huffington Post asked me to 'have a voice' on it, when I did, which was far more than I had expected would happen. The latter led to invitations to write books, blogs and broadcasts for other prestigious organisations.It is only 8th May 2017 now, three years down the line. And more than 2½ billion readers, listeners and viewers talk about what I write. I broke the stigma and taboos concerning Mental Health, Autism, Asperger's Syndrome, and Suicide Awareness. And so I have become an Ambassador of Energime University, as it is the first nearest thing I have yet seen to the society.
So, dear reader, what should you do to overcome the vacuum you feel when you are so desirous of being creative and talking about something new?
My answer is research and study sustainability entrepreneurialism as I did. Its range is huge. So vast in fact that it is beyond my capacity to teach it to you But it's not beyond the capacity of Energime University. Which is why I am one of its Ambassadors and why I say to you, go see it's portfolio of courses http://courses.energimeuniversit....
