This narrative began as a simple quest, a personal pursuit, to answer the question: What is my world view? In the process of answering it became a much larger exploration of ideas and individual pursuits including the answer to the original question. To fully answer the question it became necessary to consider much larger issues such as the following points: (1) The application of knowledge to broad issues related to the interactions between people. (2) The combined consequence of knowledge, power, risk and competition; which lead to the most fundamental and consequential of outcomes: Progress. These ideas create social and economic changes by focusing attention on the diverse opportunities and social issues of the day. (3) The challenge of leadership and the subsequent impact on group dynamics, what works and what doesn’t. (4) In trying to comprehend the world it was necessary to give context to my own beliefs which required understanding and definition of freedom and purpose, including the impact of morals, mores, philosophy and truth on our decision making. (5) Without this context is any individual able to recognize and respond to those external influences that exert control over us and which impact risk, competition, creativity and investment. (6) Finally, this pursuit was undertaken to discover what it is about me and us and our social interactions that direct our individual destinies and the progress of our culture, communities and nation.Thus began a quest to find a credible explanation to understand the complexities of social action and speech, the application of knowledge, principles, philosophy, risk, competition, and political speak. Was it possible to reconcile and bring understanding to the American political construct when considering knowledge, power, motivation, and its consequences?
