An Intuitive World
Just look around at practically any system and you see the unstoppable effects of revolutionary change that is sweeping the globe and affecting humanity in various and sundry ways. Governmental systems all over the planet are failing from politics itself to health care, education, economical, banking, stock markets to you name it.
Why are these systems failing? They are failing because they are simultaneously, inexorably, unstoppably being replaced by information age technologies. Just as the agrarian lifestyle dominated humanity for centuries the industrial age has dominated for most of the last two. Every form of our culture and way of life is being replaced by the third wave or information age as Alvin Tolfler wrote in his futuristic book “The Third Wave” This book was written over 25 years ago but it’s message is still very powerful and accurate. More so today because the future that he talked about is here.
The first wave or agrarian age powers tried to violently resist the unstoppable forces of the industrial age through wars and manipulations of power and wealth. We saw the overthrow of the monarchial powers by centralized powers that industrial societies depend on to survive. The civil war in the United States in the early 1860’s is an example of an industrialized North overcoming an agrarian based South. Once the centralization of power was well established it began to spread into every aspect of society. School systems today in most of the world are based on an outdated mode of education. This is why no matter how much money is thrown at this system it still fails. The same can be said for all other systems that are based off of the second wave model. The recent crash of the banking system last year is an example of what’s in store for all industrial age, centralized control models.
Third wave systems are intuitive systems that are based off of the whole brain or as I speak about in The Intuitive Warrior the right/intuitive side and left/analytical side of the brain. As a special forces warrior/Navy SEAL and now as an independent security contractor I can tell you first hand how the old centralized systems of the military are being run circles around by decentralized terrorist organizations. Fighting in the future may still happen with big armies coming to clash against each other as the old forces of the second wave try to hold onto their fading power but it will not be long before it is a thing of the distant past.
The new warrior of the future will be intuitive. This is inexorable, it will happen and it is an incredible thing to see unfolding. This blessing for humanity will usher in warriors that will intuit coming attacks and plan missions that will creatively take away the ability of hostile forces to fight without anyone firing a shot. I have already effectively experienced this for years and share this in The Intuitive Warrior. Remember that the second wave like the first will not and is not going without a fight. This new technology based intuitive warrior, although could be immediately and effectively implemented, will not be realized until enough people believe in this possibility and create a wave of change similar to what Malcolm Gladwell talks about in his book The Tipping Point.
An intuitive culture will be far more advanced and capable of unheard of capabilities than are now realized by the current analytical prisoner of today. It’s been said by scientists that we only use a small percentage of our brains potential. That percentage has already started expanding and has been for decades. We are on the cusp of an incredible transformation in the human race. Although change will be painful for many who are still clinging to a dying system and are being wrongly convinced that is the only way, there are many more that are awakening to the dawning of An Intuitive World where war will be a fading thing of the past and control of the human spirit and achievement will disintegrate.


Michael Jaco served as a Navy SEAL for twenty-four years before becoming an independent security contractor. During his service he achieved what many others previously thought to be impossible or unattainable. He retired in December 2002 as a Navy "Chief" and started his own training organization which educates participants in tactical awareness skills. Born in Columbia, South Carolina, he now lives in Elgin with his wife and children.
