Tactic 001. Proof. September 24, 1985
My mind is full of models. When I was ten, I decided I’d do something good with them when I was in my fifties. When I was fifteen, I decided I’d use my model of energy transfer to launch an eco-project based on the ideas of Carl Sagan, Buckminster Fuller, and the Native American philosophies I learned from Tom Brown, Jr. and Stalking Wolf, at the Tracker School in the summers of 1984 and 1985.
I saw the movie Back to the Future in August 1985. This movie inspired me to think about creating a time capsule that couldn’t be erased or lost. I knew that people in the future would say this story was “unbelievable”. I never liked that word, so I decided to make this story “believable” by creating proof on a permanent record. That’s why I decided to buy a piece of land in the woods.
I knew that if I created a permanent record, it would reduce the number of people in the future who would say that my eco-project was “unbelievable”. On the whole, this kind of move makes it more “believable”.
I bought the land on this deed with money I made mowing lawns while visualizing the lawn-mowing business between April 1985 and September 1985.
This is the HQ for Project Honeylight.
There were three outcomes I planned to achieve with this:
I wanted to make this story more believable by creating a permanent record.
I thought it would be cool to have a cabin in the woods to hatch a plan.
It helps to create milestones in the future so I can reverse engineer from a known point.
I knew if I lived to be around 55, I would be in the position to launch Project Honeylight. The fact that you are reading this means I caught up to the future I imagined when I was fifteen.
Today is February 26, 2024. By December 31, 2030, I plan to create a system that helps 10,000 beekeepers create pollinator habitat and money through a regenerative business system.
The deeds for this land is on the sign that is on the left side of the entrance to the Dome of Dreams. The strategy architecture for Project Honeylight is on the right side.
Tactic 001 is the first tactic of the story sequence. The other launch tactics for Project Honeylight are below. If you are reading this, the launch sequence has started.
I’m telling a bunch of stories on the Practical Dreaming podcast series that describe the models that I used to make it this far. I also describe my plans up to the year 2030. This story is about imagining the future in 1985 so I could intercept it around now. The story involves the deed at the top of this page.
Long Game Framework
I use a framework for creating the future that I imagine. I’m demonstrating it as part of the worldbuilding I’m doing for Project Honeylight.
