This is the *how-to-see*. New paradigms usually need to be installed before the vision-level moves make sense. ## 1. Nonviolent Communication (NVC) [**nvc.jacobcole.net**](https://nvc.jacobcole.net/) Jacob's NVC onboarding site. NVC is [[Marshall Rosenberg]]'s communication protocol — see [[Nonviolent Communication]] for our internal page. Why it's first in this cluster: NVC is the **single highest-leverage paradigm install** in Jacob's view. It changes how you hear what people are saying (every utterance becomes a *please* or *thank you* underneath), which dissolves a huge fraction of everyday conflict. It also gives you something rare — the experience of being in the presence of someone (Rosenberg) operating from a much higher consciousness state, in a way you can absorb just by watching videos. > "Learning nonviolent communication way early is like a huge deal. Saves so many problems and gives you superpowers as a mediator for other people." Jacob has a [[NVC Video Prize]] — $1,000 for the best 20-min how-to-learn-NVC video. ## 2. Open tools as a way of being [**github.com/opentoolshub**](https://github.com/opentoolshub) One of Jacob's GitHub orgs. The paradigm: tools should be open, composable, and accretive. This isn't "use open-source software" — it's a deeper claim about what kind of relationship with technology produces the kind of culture Jacob wants. `confidence: medium` on the editorial framing — Jacob shared the link without a long pitch. The org's contents are the best primary source. Worth poking around. ## 3. (Implicit) The frameworks themselves The conversation drops a lot of frameworks fast. Several are worth installing as *paradigms* in this cluster: - [[Stages of Adult Development]] — Wilber and Kegan. Once installed, you stop misreading higher-stage behavior as malice or naivety. - [[Wu Wei Disclosure]] — once installed, you stop blaming yourself for "willpower" failures and start engineering gradients. - [[Ego and Conceptual Thought as Tools]] — once installed, the question of "who am I" loosens. - [[Spirit as Substrate]] — once installed, several "speculative" things stop seeming impossible. These are concept pages, not external links. Read them when ready. ## After this cluster Move to [[Life Upgrade Onboarding]] — once the operating system is upgraded, the daily practices stop feeling like obligations.
