Well being – evidence of systems and humanity working – Synergistic Accounting Part 7
How do you describe the circumstances where the whole of you is enabled to be expressed to the fullest degree? In Synergisti Accounting we call this well-being.
It doesn’t mean minimum standards…it doesn’t mean survival. It means thriving
If we begin from the premise that every human has a unique contribution to make that is valuable, that they have skills and talents that make their contribution vital and needed for the success of all of humanity, then well-being is when the environment and conditions support that fullest expression. They are not constrained by either lack or overwhelm in any domain. They have sufficiency of matter, money, knowledge, tools and artefacts, warm data and well-being.
Further to this, they express their well-being without doing harm to others or the environment. There is a synergistic wholeness that occurs.
Well-being is the outcome of a healthy whole. It is evidence of systems and humanity working.
Well-being includes health, vitality, energy, love, belonging, connection, safety, abundance, ease, flow, freedom, beauty, joy, community, and alignment.
It doesn’t exclude anyone or thing. It doesn’t impose or dominate. Neither does it reduce nor belittle.
Well-being means we have increased optionality to act. We have the right tools, access, knowledge, money, safety, security, risk.
Is well-being aspirational? Certainly, in many instances in our current world.
Aspiration for well-being for all is a good thing. In the absence of this aspiration, humanity is diminished. Absence of the intention for well-being in our corporations and communities is causing untold harm.
The practice of Synergistic Accounting supports well-being for all. Or, the intention to enable well-being for all invites Synergistic Accounting. The two are different expressions of the one.
