What are those common attributes of societies that lose the fitness to survive and what are those common attributes of societies that experience bursts of creative innovation, increased longevity, increased intelligence, increased peace and increased commerce? Does human population growth prove that we are just a cancer on Gaia OR is it possible that population growth can be a sign of doing things right? How do we know? What is the common thread linking philosophy, art, science and statecraft and how does that unite our modern world with the ancient world (and our deep future)? All of these questions and more are explored in Part 1: The Renaissance Principle De-Mystified (Matt Ehret): Part 2: How to Conquer Tyranny and Defeat Tragedy (Cynthia Chung) Read Cynthia’s full essay on Plato and Cicero here. Part 3: Changing Images of Man and Prometheus (David Gosselin) The Rising Tide Foundation (RTF), a non-profit based out of Montreal, Canada, dedicated to the rigorous re-examination of Universal History and the principles governing the cyclical appearance of Renaissances and Dark Ages in human civilization.

February 19, 2026   |   Read Online Stop Broadcasting, Start Becoming Privacy Is Where Power Grows. We live in an age of constant disclosure. Every thought, shared. Every move, documented. Every intention announced before it has time to mature. And in that noise…something essential is being lost. Power grows in silence. Most people broadcast because they crave acknowledgment. They want to be seen trying, evolving, improving. But announcing progress too early diffuses the very energy required to sustain it. Becoming requires privacy. When everything is shared, nothing is protected. When every step is narrated, focus fractures. When growth becomes performance, identity weakens. The strongest individuals move quietly. They build without commentary. They refine without applause. They allow results to speak when the work is finished. This is not secrecy for its own sake…It is discipline. Broadcasting invites opinions before you are ready for them. Becoming requires space to think, fail, recalibrate, and recommit without external interference. There is a reason the most composed people rarely explain their plans. They understand that execution thrives away from spectators. When you stop broadcasting, something shifts internally. You stop seeking validation. You stop performing progress. You begin listening more closely to your own standards. Momentum strengthens when it is not constantly interrupted by feedback. This is why privacy creates gravity. People sense depth in those who do not overexpose themselves. Mystique is not manipulation. It is the natural byproduct of restraint. To move from broadcasting to becoming: Share outcomes, not intentions Let discipline replace declaration Protect your focus from unnecessary commentary Allow your identity to form before you present it There is a quiet confidence that emerges when you know you are building something real…something that doesn't need to be explained because it will eventually be evident. Silence is not absence. It is incubation. Stop narrating the process. Commit to it. Finish it. Then speak (if you choose to) from a place of completion, not aspiration. Those who become in silence arrive with substance. And substance never needs an announcement.
