Imagine if environmental information was published alongside the quarterly gross domestic product (GDP) figure.Every three months, we would be told that economic growth increased by 0.6 per cent in the last quarter, say, and by 5.9 per cent through the year.But it would also explain we lost another 1,300 koalas last quarter, another 750 hectares of our native forests were logged, and our ocean fish stocks shrank by another 0.5 percentage points. By making the relationship between economic growth and the environment transparent, it might change the national conversation.https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-12-11/gdp-growth-and-environmental-destruction/101730502

If I’m going to take advice from anyone, it’s going to be from gold medallist and inclusion advocate, Matt Levy (OAM). I originally purchased his book for my daughter but have found it useful for my own future planning! The framework is constructive, illustrations engaging, and the tone supportive. While the book is promoted as a children’s book, Matt’s innovative approach can really be for anyone who has a dream. Matt summed it up when I asked about the purpose of Brandon Dreams Big: "It gives practical tips to overcome obstacles and challenges. We all need this." https://mattlevy.com.au/books
