The OSE approach is to build a pond all the knowledge of civilization to distill those principles which are not controversial. The goal of OSE is to maximize a collaborative effort chords civilization mid-course correction. Is this even possible? Can people agree on what is that pass is? OSE aims to distill and follow those principles that are non-controversial in order to assure maximum buy an from a significant number of people. That has historically been the key to oses popularity, and as the messages are clarified, even larger collaboration can take place.

We do not expect everyone to agree with our core beliefs. By defining them clearly below, we are opening up discussion for reconciling differences in beliefs.

  • Absolute empowerment of people through open access to learning, especially of productive, transformative entrepreneurship. OSE's focus
  • 'Freedom- both positive and negative as accepting a clear distinction between the two - Negative Freedom, Positive Freedom, can reconcile key differences of opinion in society. OSE calls the combination of positive and negative freedom integrated freedom.
  • Systems Thinking. Integration and reconciliation of different belief systems, and the treatment of the world as a whole, not a partisan, special interest, or siloed approach. Understanding of the connection between seemingly disparate parts of the system towards creating a balance between human and natural ecosystems.
  • Diversity of options and choices that allows for positive and negative freedom. Part of allowing for diversity is the acceptance of inclusion. This tends towards finding common ground. Diversity of opinion also allows for accepting disagreement, which means that various viewpoints are accepted for discussion, as opposed to untouchable. This is important for preserving individuals who have a different opinion, allowing freedom of thought, and freedom from groupthink.
  • Integrated Humans. People who are as healthy and capable as possible, respecting that feeding the body, mind, and spirit is important.
  • Growth Mindset. lifelong learning to create new capability and options, promoting one's freedom. This promotes responsibility and merit.
