Oh yeah, makes sense.

So, then why do you think Leo said that without stage Blue work ethic or discipline you'll never succeed at anything?

What would happen if you had the work ethic and discipline of stage Orange, without the work ethic or discipline of stage Blue?

Because sometimes you don't want to be too rational. Rationality unchecked deconstructs meaning and purpose, hence why existential nihilism and unhinged hedonism becomes a problem at Orange.

Orange work ethic tends to be a slave to hedonistic pleasures, exploitative corporate success, material wealth and social validation (status, sex, drugs and money). There is a lack of higher-order purpose, of morality, of giving back to the community.


Intrinsic joy is revealed in the marriage of meaning and being.

Ah, so stage Blue work ethic and discipline is needed to balance out the excess rationality, pragmatism, self-seeking aggrandizement, and pleasure-seeking from the stage Orange work values.

So, then how do you think the work values of stage Red compare to that of stage Orange?

It's so funny how just minutes before your first post I watched a YouTube video in which this "cobra Tate" dude also appeared haha.

So you mean on their website it gets more orange or you mean something entirely different?

This for orange opening up to green. It's about what mainstream orange culture misses when teaching purpose and it leads to purpose viewed from green.

A very good example of how excessive greed can ruin even the most consolidated brands in the marketplace...
