1. Handbook for
High Stakes,
High Acceleration
Change

2. Handbook for
Fundamental Change
1. Introductory Notes
2. Change becomes possible when you’ve
found what’s so valuable you’d die for
it.
3. Accurate Diagnosis is 99% of the cure
4. Focus, Clear Objective is Pre-requisite
of Change
5. Sufficient Power (Creative Tension) is
Pre-Requisite of Change
6. Paying the Price is the currency of
change
7. Becoming, Being the ‘Antidote’ is the
entire hope.
8. The Psychological Battlefield (nervous
system)
9. The only two ways to fight:
• Violent Warfare
• Unviolent Warfare

3. 1. Introductory Notes
• This guide is what SL lives by after a
lifetime of practice and study. Take it,
or leave it.
• It is the existence of an exception
that proves there is a rule at play.
• Yes, a valid strategy can be based on
defying all history, precedent, logic,
psychology, physics…. But you better
have damn good reason.
• In 2012 change is the most difficult
ever:
• 1st Revolution tried within a ‘democracy’
• The existential threats are invisible:
– CO2 gas
– Affloholism

4. 2. Hope’s born when death’s
preferable to status quo
• An activist is not equipped to fight till
she knows what she would die for –
MLK Jr paraphrase
• The status quo will always kill to
perpetuate itself
• Always - Arab Spring, Suffragists, Civil
Rights, ending Vietnam War, ending
Apartheid…
• Knowing what you are willing joust
against, fight, rant against is nothing
more than masturbating; tantrums.
• If you haven’t found that which you’d
die for, no need to wait to see who
will win.

5. 3. Accurate Diagnosis is
99% of the cure
• ‘You know what amazes me,’ mused
Napoleon? ‘The Spirit always
triumphs over the sword in the end.’
Whoever controls the nervous system
controls the behavior.
• 2012:
• The ‘problem’ is a True, fundamental
Mass-Insanity within the 300 million US
nervous systems – affloholism.
• This is not a ‘V’ situation.
It’s a –
– 1930 sane German’s problem
– 1930 sane German Jew’s problem
– Mass addiction, mass affloholism
problem
– Crack neighborhood problem

6. 4. Focus, Clear
Objective is
Pre-requisite of
Change –
any amount of force
dissipated is
ineffective

7. 5. Sufficient Power (Creative
Tension) is Pre-Requisite of Change
• Without ‘real’ deadlines you can’t
generate sufficient power
• If you are living, ‘failure is an option,’
you’ve already accepted defeat.
• Sufficient Tension is possible only
when the Warrior is willing to fail, but
unwilling not to try.
• Only the Heart (in charge) is strong
enough:
• Highest intelligence
• Highest motivation
• Highest motivator
• Gandhi’s ‘Heart force,’ the source of his
entire hope.
• Head and Flesh in charge is certain
doom.

8. 6. Pay the price, or,
no-change. Whoever pays
the most, wins. Simple.
• Violence violates others by exacting
the price from them.
• The pinnacle of immorality
• Unviolence pays the price oneself, as
you’d buy a home, a car, an
education.
• The pinnacle of morality

9. 7. Becoming, Being the
Antidote – the only hope
• The only thing in the universe that
you can ever control is your own
attempt
• We are wired such that the highest
motivator, by whatever name is -
Love, Humanity, Solidarity, Dignity
• Hiding behind ‘rights’ is hopelessly
weak, morally bankrupt. Pay the
price for what’s ‘Right.’ Always.
• Inclusiveness:
• Fatal – excluding anyone from your
‘immediate family,’ ever.
• Fatal – including anyone in your cause
who isn’t 100% committed to upholding
the highest morality, regardless. MLK Jr,
Gandhi paraphrase.
– NEVER HOLD ANYONE TO HIGHER
STANDARDS THAN YOU HOLD
YOURSELF. EVER. EVER. EVER….

10. 8. The only battlefield:
Collective nervous system
• Head and Flesh are the domain of
entropy, hatefulness, selfishness.
• Heart is the domain of Solidarity,
Humanity.
• ‘You know what amazes me,’ mused
Napoleon? ‘The Spirit always
triumphs over the sword in the end.’

11. 9. Only 2 possible ways to
fight, to wage war
• Violent Warfare
• Totally empowers Head and Flesh
• Totally disempowers Heart
• Maintains the status quo – violence
• Kicks the can (changing status quo,
replacing extreme violence with waging
love) down the road.
– 2012 – YOU ARE OUT OF ROAD.
THERE IS NO MORE ROAD TO KICK THE CAN
DOWN.
– Unviolent Warfare
• Totally empowers, strengthens and
INSPIRES Heart
• IS THE CHANGE to the status quo, the
ONLY POSSIBLE change
• Love (like that of the mother for her
child) – strongest force in the universe –
