Fearless motivation

Have been talking with my children about the cultivation of fearlessness, and so my 12 year old daughter shared this one with me this a.m.:

Will be easy to critique from a postmodern perspective, but hopefully can be appreciated as relevant for the adolescent level!

  • I think my more popular article on this upside-downside of "fearless" attractions is a good one to get a handle on the problematics I am speaking to here...

  • Great! Indeed any form of attraction to fearlessness is a step in the right direction (dare I say)... toward a 2nd-tier existence and motivational ecology... and, the down side of such "fearless" attractions also require a general criticality as well... "fearless" in the past 25 years has been used by just about every marketing form you can think of from candy to panty products to general empowerment and anti-victim (positive attitude) angles.... this is a longer conversation and requires a good fear education where "fearless" is one conception of a spectrum of conceptualizations (of forms of fearlessness)--that is, developmentally nuanced, not merely behavioral... I love that any young person is at least interested in the conversation but it needs to be mediated with theory as well, as far as I am concerned. Thank your daughter for offering this website and thanks to her daddy too! 

    • thanks for your feedback.  finding a way to unite the business sensibility -- financial sustainability -- with these deeper philosophical insights is a big challenge.  that website was good for the way they seemed to understand the world of money.
