Interview with Toby Morse – Inspiring the youth of today and spreading Positive Mental Attitude

FeaturedLeave a comment

Toby Morse, lead-singer of the hardcore punk band H2O. I had the pleasure of meeting him before his gig in Germany, during the EMP Persistence Tour through Europe. On the couch sat this sweet, polite and down to earth man that charmingly couldn't stop gushing about his wife of 20 years and his son. Enthusiastically he talked to me about PMA, Positive Mental Attitude, and how he goes to schools in the US in his free time to talk about his attitude and how he has never touched alcohol or drugs in his life.

The New System Project – a three Day Conference on alternative economic solutions for a better future

1 Comment

The New System Project is an initiative who’s aim is to explore “political-economic system models that deliver social, economic and ecological outcomes”. I went to their three days conference in New York last week. We didn’t find solutions yet, but ideas were flying around everywhere. Hopefully many will remember them and the energy we all shared when we return to the real world. What impressed me the most was the positive attitude. Instead of arguing over what doesn’t work, solutions were discussed and experiences shared. It’s nice to see so many people that think the same way and not to feel like the only crazy person out there.
