1000 Year Innovators Challenge: 100% Guaranteed Sustainability

1000 Year Innovators & Entrepreneurs Challenge:




Sandra H. Rodman, @SHRodman
CEO/Creator, Right Brain Aerobics

What if you had to guarantee that your invention & the device on which it is served--is 100% biodegradable, healthy for all life, no toxins left in the ecosystem, water, air, dumps, food chain--no harm to any life, sustainable for 1000 Years?



What if that were the new definition for Innovation? What if the knowledge to innovate in this way created whole new libraries for human intelligence and compassion?

What if the Prizes for such inventions were so great that you would devote all of your time to winning?

Is that a way to train Minds of the Future?




"A dream is your creative vision for your life in the future. You must break out of your current comfort zone and become comfortable with the unfamiliar and the unknown." -- Denis Waitley
Live like all life depended on it...

Will Quantum Computers Spark Quantum Intelligence? The Age of the Quantum Computer.

Planet-wide Visionary Rules from Thomas Edison:  
M. A. Rosanoff: "Mr. Edison, please tell me what laboratory rules you want me to observe." 
Edison: "There ain't no rules around here. We're trying to accomplish somep'n!"


Quantum Computers, says a Newsweek article, will change everything:
"Quantum Computers Will Make Your Laptop Look Like an Abacus."
A quantum leap for our society if ever there was one... And perhaps -- as it is coming so SOON after the first personal computers relative to the length of human history -- sure to get us doing a 1000 Year Business Plan! Soon.

But quantum thinking about quantum computers -- that's the real magic being sparked; and quantum thinking may have the greates implications of all for your 1000 Year Business Plan! 

Better said: the impact and interactions of human consciousness at the quantum/micro/nano level, necessary to conceive of, program, and invent in quantum non-local realms -- this is only discussed at the very very very very far edges of experimental science, psychology, and technology. On account of you have to discuss:

Non-Local Mind

This will become an even bigger debate that it is now.  Because quantum computing is, in effect, a kind of "non-local" computing concept -- and that means throw the rules for usual space/time understanding are "out the window." But we can't throw them "out the window," if we can't understand what's "out the window" after we do...

"The future is there...looking back at us. Trying to make sense of the fiction we will have become." -- William Gibson, Pattern Recognition

Walking on the Moon - 1969. Wikipedia
What else might we do with 1000 Year Thinking & Quantum Computers?

Ah: The Magic of 1000 Year Planning.  Instead of trying to design a new IPO for next year -- might you decide to try designing the "quantum Apple" or "quantum Google" of 50 years from now -- by starting now...  100 years from now? More?

If you're an innovator -- if you're going to create the next "new new thing" - isn't that where you'd look? At the very very very very far edges of experimental quantum science, psychology, and technology?

Quantum Computing -- is going to get us talking about quantum thinking and quantum consciousness; partly because: It's very hard to work as a designer/programmer/seller of quantum computers without understanding quantum concepts. 


Max Planck, Considered the father of quantum theory--Wikipedia.
Could Max Planck program a Quantum Computer?

For one thing, superposition -- a key to quantum computing's amazing capability (because of it, every 1 & 0 is BOTH 1 & 0 and in combinations not just one or the other) -- but you have to know what superposition means.  What does it mean?

Somebody is going to have to teach and learn new concepts that might be mind-boggling -- but like the internet as it began -- maybe the most exciting thing you ever worked on. And every industry will be impacted the field is now wide open for New Quantum Leap Innovators. Somebody is going to have to learn it and teach it -- enough to program using its concepts. And somebody is going to make a "quantum leap" in how to do that well... (Wikipedia only hints at the potential in its description of Quantum Computing basic concepts -- like Qubits and Bloch Spheres. Look here)

Wow -- the most exciting thing in computing in more than 100 years is coming -- and the field is still wide open. BUT WAIT!!!! ---- AND THIS IS A BIG AND EXCITING "BUT WAIT!" -- Read more --

5 Reasons You Need a Chief Renewables Officer & Chief Tech Trends Officer!

From the 1000 Year Business Plan: "Make It Matter; Make It Last; Make It Destiny."

5 Reasons You May Need a Chief Renewables Officer & a Chief Tech Trends Officer--and an MBA Program that Trains Both + Right Brain Thinking! (+ 1 Bonus Reason)...



For 1000 Year Planning -- or even 10 Year Planning -- these 2 business areas are already key but not executive positions or company-wide focus (note Kodak and now Weight Watchers, hotel chains, cab companies disrupted by new tech/social trends that had foreseeable consequences -- and bricks-and-mortar retail chains and local stores that didn't respond creatively to online sales displacing store sales; online retailers that didn't prepare for Amazon disruption in every product area not just books; or didn't prepare for Google Ads to disrupt previous advertising strategies. Example of potential disruptive trend: Rumor only, floating about: Might Google buy Twitter? How might that information or a related corporate purchase eventually affect your business?)


  1. What's Creative Today Is Obsolete Tomorrow -- Fast... Appointing well-qualified Chief Officers in just these two areas -- focus on using renewables/recycling as BUDGET PLANNING - and on daily assessment of disruptive emerging tech trends' impact on your business within 2-10 or more years -- could mean the difference between a 1-10 year company success and a 100 or 1000 year company success. If you appointed 2 such officers you would shift whole-company thinking and creativity to a great extent -- even enhance your reputation with customers. 
  2. Customers Depend on (and Are Attracted to) Your Being Forward-Thinking & Innovative -- if you aren't, they'll go where the "next big thing" is. The inability to "see ahead of the curve" and be there with good options for customers, may be even more important for long-term stock value than just having a Quarter slightly head of the last. 
  3. Create Your Own Internal Innovative Sustainable/Creative MBA-equivalent Business Training. Innovation Expertise + Sustainability Expertise + Tech Trend Impact Expertise -- Says "We're a smart and innovative company that's the one to watch." We're modeling the help, not just giving advice.  MBA's don't generally include training for creativity, intuition, or "seeing ahead of the curve." And only some include training in business/financial implications of renewables/sustainability & long-term budget implications. They should -- but if they don't, you can internally. Would also be a plus for executive/managerial recruiting.
  4. If You're Not Already Thinking of a 1000 Year Business Legacy Plan -- others are. This will become second nature in sustainable global business expertise -- and you don't want to be left behind. Why wait and find out too late that you weren't thinking really really far ahead enough to see something no one else has seen? But others are? Suggestion: Give all managers -- or all employees -- an assignment to create a 1-Page 1000 Year Business Plan for your company/product and see what ideas pop up that you might never have anticipated, and that could change everything! Do this periodically and give high recognition for plan proposals that "pop up" emerging trends that could lead to greater business success!
  5. Long-term Sustainable Success Companies Are All Increasing Renewables Strategy + Tech Trend Shift Strategy focus company wide! Especially at Executive Levels!  The C-Suites that get this right will be tomorrow's leaders -- Sustainability Innovation & Tech Trend Savvy should distinguish the Future C-Suites! #ThinkAhead

But WAIT -- What you can do now -- and Bonus Reason #6! Read More

"1000 Year Social Media? Why Don't Extraterrestrials Carry Phones..? & Other Long-Term Business Issues"...

1000 Year Social Media? What Does that Look Like? 
Why Aren't Extraterrestrials on Twitter?
Why don't Extraterrestrials Carry Phones?

"Who will be unexpected customers in far decades coming? Isn't it time innovators begin to think of them now?" S.H. Rodman

Likely we start by planning for a time when there aren't computers or phones -- and perhaps consciousness/telepathy and technology will be subsumed by something else 10 generations new by then. 

No Screens? Virtual Reality Social Media? Interdimensional Social Media? Will there be a web at all -- or a Hyperspace Web? A Virtual Reality Reality??...




In literature regarding reported human interplanetary-travelling extraterrestrial  contact over the last 7 decades… The interesting thing about visitation reports by humans (many thousands, so imagine if only 5%-10% were true unknown encounters) -- well, the interesting thing is that nobody reports visitors using a phone; a pad; a watch or something like Goggles like Google Glass. Generally.

If they use screens, it is to show something to human beings -- we speak "screens."  But there aren't hordes of visitors reportedly checking iPads or laptop screens to see what to do next or pull up data about you. And any visitor who might be here in physical form would have been part of an advanced society of interstellar beyond-speed-of-light travelers for whom "1000 year" concepts in science and technology might be trivial.

So if they don't use these, what do they use? What will our technology look like in 1000 Years? What will we learn from other humanoid planetary civilizations?
"How will interstellar humans express the desire to create vastly   innovative new kinds of social media? Are we missing out right now?"
Extraterrestrials are often reported to be beings of supersensory intelligence -- hyperintelligence linked into hyperspace travel, who can arrange to use matter and energy according to other laws or perceptions of reality, to travel outside the laws of our known physics.

Welcome to The 1000 Year Business Plan: Make It Matter, Make It Last, Make It Destiny

What if you went to an MBA School and every class was focused on 1000 year planning? Who would you be, and what societies would we produce? (See Exercise at end.)


The 1000 Year Business Plan, 1000 Year Financial Planning (who's to say that you're not planning the financial future for your family 10 generations ahead right now, with every personal choice? Who's to say there will be such a thing as "financial planning" in shared interplanetary civilizations 10 generations hence?) What will there be?



It's about to get real serious real fast. We're passing the Silicon barrier and Intel and everybody else are looking for something else. Are you in the "something else" business yet? No? Get thinking about it because it's here.

“New streets should be Twitter friendly and be named with hashtags up front. I’d build a house on ‪#‎LoversLane.” -- Jarod Kintz, Write like no one is reading…

Who Moved My Qubit? What's a Computer??

We're approaching Quantum Computing (Google just hit a milestone in development) and you'll have to learn qubits -- "Who Moved My Qubit?" will be a popular new book...

Though who knows if Quantum Computing will be around in 1000 years -- or computing at all? "What's a computer?" -- they might ask! In Grace Hopper's day in early programming, the women who did the computing were called "the computers.


Do They Have Swamp Gas on Ceres?

As we orbit the asteroid Ceres with its two sparkling "mystery lights" -- goodness only knows what THOSE are (I mean what they really are; wonder if they have swamp gas on Ceres?) -- and as we work on colonization missions for Mars and the Moon proceed anon: Well!


Wouldn't a 1000 Year Car make sense if you're going to live in deep space? Hey -- it takes a LONG TIME to get a part from Earth if your carburetor goes out!
Read Kurt Vonnegut's "Sirens of Titan"... Great pre-planning tips for writing a 1000 Year Business Plan. Don't let this happen to you!)
Want a big Brain Stretch right now? Want to spark your "quantum leap innovators mind" -- jump into a new timeline!

Want to get a new "lease" on long-term life? Start Writing Your 1000 Year Business Plan now and watch what happens to your daily "To Do List"... to your sense of what is really innovative over eons, what is really creative when it has to last 1000 years?
