Exercise 1: Light your Fire

We begin with fire. Our ancestors knew fire as a source of warmth, light, and protection. The Low Tech Monk realizes he or she must also identify that fire which gives their life meaning, purpose, and warmth.

Finding that fire is the first step to building a cyber wisdom framework. Once you have identified your fire, you can begin to build a circle around it, a circle of trust that will help you grow and protect that fire, and the loved ones who gather around it.

If you were on the last moments of life with your family all gathered around, all listening, all longing for a memory and legacy to echo forth from that moment, what would you say? Don't shy away from death now while you have life enough to ponder this question. Imagine it. Light the fire.
