PLC ETHOS
POSITIVE
This doesn’t mean you have to be a happy clappy cheerleader or pretend you are happy when you are not. No this means being your authentic self without feeling any guilt or shame or embarrassment. It means you show up if you want to with a positive mental attitude towards yourself and others. It actually means being less negative. It’s not about being more positive, as that motivation to be positive is from your own free will and nobody else. Also, motivation is good but not necessarily a priority, the slopes of Mount Everest are covered with once highly motivated bodies. No being positive just means choosing generally not to look at things too darkly.
Life fluctuates always, some days are good, and some are crap. It’s ok to feel these fluctuations and ride them through. Tomorrow is another day and a new fresh slate. The aim here is to help you to regulate your moods (and) so you feel down less often, because you are doing what you love. So feeling more excitement and joy because you are doing the things you love and wish to do.
The aim is to help you understand too what’s bringing you down, and to change the pattern so that it no longer affects you. That way you will have more headspace, time and energy for other things like creating good memories to feel good about. These formulas are known.
LIVING
Yes, living not “limited” as in the known and well used corporate meaning to PLC. So, we mean living the best possible way that you want to live, finding your true calling and being the example (you) of the best you that you wish to be.
It means the verb, to do, to act, to be in the process of, to actuate, activate, to be proactive and creative. To live life to your fullest. No, it doesn’t mean you have to do gym training or leap out of bed like a ballerina etc, it just means living an active life when you want to be active. Nobody has to prove they are anything, this is not a sports challenge. It just means living, tasting, touching, breathing, drinking in all life has to offer, when you can as much as you can. And living well. With a good support network and a vocation that keeps you active in your joy.
COMMUNITIES
No more isolation, no more soulless neighbours and strangers taking advantage of you. No more loneliness, no matter where you are, you are not alone. There are people just like you thinking they are alone too, and they may be next door but one from you in your street. Just like you.
We thrive when we have good friends and a good supportive network. We are stronger and more resilient when we come together. We can achieve amazing things when we collaborate and cooperate on projects. When we get going and all help each other, we can get things done very quickly.
There is nothing more satisfying than working on a project with other people, where everyone has chosen their own roles based on their skills and knowledge and everyone just gets on with agreed tasks and all of you complete your parts and the project gets done. You can celebrate your success stories and share your insights with others. Showing the way for others to see how it can be done in a different way and much better too. Plus, then being able to look back with a sense of achievement makes you feel good.
PLC Ethos
- No leaders here as everyone is a leader.
- No hierarchy here, as it’s Mexicans all around a fire sharing the heat.
- No dominating characters that dominate others.
- No abuse of any kind, verbal or physical.
- Allowing people to be and explore and become who they want to be and develop their authentic selves to be self-governing and more trusting in themselves. More empowered to make the decisions they feel are right for them.
- More confident and calmer emotional control.
- More information sharing across all platforms on all topics.
- More fun and finding your lasting joy.
- More peace and quiet and sanctuary from the outside busy toxic world.
- No government attachments, we are fully independent.
- No political or religious attachments.
- No ideologies or dogmas, movements, or hidden agendas.
- Transparency and freedom from outside harmful influences is key.
- We are anti cults and pro critical individual thinking. No leaders but also no followers either thank you. (autodidacts)
- Unity Consciousness rather than division.
- Proactive people rather than bystanders expecting everything free for doing nothing.
Each member has a skill, talent and life experience that is a valuable repository of knowledge to share and put to positive use with other members who can also share information they know from experiences.
PLC is a sustainable system that does not require an ever-increasing profit model year on year. Just self-sustainable local projects and businesses to suit custom, local growers and producers to reduce pollution and transport costs etc and keep local community in business and connected.
So, these are the sorts of values that PLC encourages its members to adopt. It’s all about you and the unique value you bring and share with others. Each one of you makes up the amazing variety and colour of this world and PLC wants to celebrate that and encourage that way of being, living your authentic self in a fab local community.
The formula for world peace is known. It is simple to work on oneself and to learn to accept and love oneself first, and then you are no longer unconsciously or consciously creating conflict with others and, more importantly, no longer creating internal conflicts with yourself.
This way you are conscious and mindful of your own thoughts, actions and deeds and start to live in a harmonic balanced and contented state of mind that is then reflected in your life back to you with a more satisfying life.
More satisfied people, in balanced harmonic unity mind(ed), makes it impossible to manipulate them into war or conflict because they have worked on themselves.
Also, each of you has something you are good at that someone else needs and you can supply it. Like you have needs and others have that thing you need. Whether it’s their services or their products, skills or knowledge, so it makes sense to build up a network of these wonderful people and to start to pool all that talent so PLC members can access its benefits.
This way you can create your own contained markets or economies, like walking into a little village where you can pick up all you need in one local place.
We also want to encourage you to become your own boss so you are less dependent on the state and more independent financially. This means that you are decoupling from feeding those control systems that work to stop us from thriving.
All of the above, and just from simply meeting new people in your local area, not bad hey?
These are simple things that we can all do, to help change and improve our own and others situations. Which in turn makes us happier. It’s a no brainer.
I have found these things to be like known formulas that work best for humans over many hundreds of thousands of years. It’s nothing new really, so it’s not anything radical, it’s just what we humans have worked out in the past that works best over a long time, and that has been done through actually testing them out over a very long time.
There is still nothing better than sitting around a warm open fire, with good family or friends, food and drink, music and good banter. It’s an ancient vibration that is in our DNA. This is just a modern look at those ancient ways and using what works.
Since starting the PLC I have made many new friends, and each has a skill and talent. I can now visit them and pay for their services and goods. Rather than paying money into the system I am now supporting friends and businesses and practices that I know are more holistic. I am reducing the amount of my time and energies I spend feeding the matrix and thus starving it of power. At the same time, I am, with others helping to create an alternate holistic society that makes the old one obsolete. I can’t do this alone, and I know there are others like me who just see a more simple and better way of living, (and) without all the hassle of outside unhelpful agencies. Others who just want to get on with creating a better way of living in more abundance.
