Communities
How we live with each other in our communities - neighborhood, block, city, country, your own house, whatever - this is usually the first thing we think of when we talk about living in Good Places. The first step toward building up a Good Place (whether a neighborhood, city, etc.) involves having a comprehensive vision of that place as a Good Place. As a friend of mine often says, we can’t do better until we know better. Developing a common, comprehensive vision of our place as a Good Place is a process. That process requires some leadership. Once we develop that vision (or as we are developing it), we need to make it known. People need to see that vision of the place as a Good Place. Once people see it they will react to it (“That’s it!” or maybe, “You left out . . . “). These reactions will improve the vision. As people see, hear and understand the vision they will start to work towards making it real in their lives and in their places.
