Human Potential - 97% dormant?

Of the 3 billion codings of human DNA, only 3% is utilised in humanity’s existence today. So what is humanity’s potential? What might be unrealised within us?

Evidence of this hidden potential is emerging from studies of isolated breeding – those places where religious, cultural, geographical, caste and temporal restrictions have inhibited the averaging out of potential and the breeding away of dominant genes, allowing the recessive gene to exist, even flourish.

Now some genes produce obvious characteristics - brown eyes, height, specialist awareness (spatial, colour, relational, etc.), yet there are many characteristics which are not obvious….and as this is an invitational writing, you invited to postulate on the unobvious, the desirable and the amazing.

If the sum of our human existence and amazing capability amount to 3%, the lost 97% allows a lot of scope. For instance, it allows for all living matter’s characteristics to individually, as well as jointly, be within human potential. Yet all living matter only exhibit a further 10% of possible genetic codes, leaving a full 87% for our imagination and for human possibility and potential.

Do you have any favourite possibilities?

More than the Seven Seas

Ian Lewis FRSA FInstLM • There was a wise saying back in the 80's 'When presented with two alternatives, reject both and enjoy playing in the spaces between them."

There is much play space in - the 4 C's we have in The Thinking Hotel - curiosity, connectivity, co-creativity, change..., the 4 C's we have in C4Enterprise - collaboration, creativity, consciousness, community....the 4 C's we have in lifecollege - courage, coactivation, clarity, coruscation.

I've been a C kayakist for years, even doing a 1000mile circumnavigation from Scotland, all the way around Ireland and back to Scotland. I always thought of only 7 seas, but true creativity, where no one knows as much as everyone, requires at least the 12 C's.

Now it is worth finding lifecollege.org to see the future
