The 12 greatest global crises in human history are also humanity's greatest opportunity to resolve its most intractable problems and inequities, which could not (and have not,) been solved ever before.
If a complex system continually repeats something over great lengths of time it is reasonable to treat that repeated item as something that the system values, is important to the system or, that somehow is (or has become,) an essential part of the system's overall success. Universe evolution has consistently reoccurring core patterns some of which that have been repeating themselves successfully ever since the Big Bang almost 13.7 million years ago. Knowing, aligning with and using these time-proven, consistently reoccurring core patterns of progressive evolution will greatly enhance personal and group success.
