2. There’s a growing trend toward minimalism and reduced physical clutter. (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.7)
3. Digital products offer greater flexibility and ease of use. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.6)
4. Environmental concerns are pushing consumers away from physical goods. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.8)
5. Advances in tech make digital-only options more functional. (Confidence: 0.8, Creative: 0.5)
6. Pandemic-era remote work increased demand for digital solutions. (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.6)
7. Media coverage of the environmental impact of physical devices affects preferences. (Confidence: 0.5, Creative: 0.7)
8. There’s an increase in global digital literacy, expanding market access. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.6)
9. Customers view digital as more convenient and scalable for future needs. (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.5)
10. Younger consumers prefer the aesthetics and convenience of digital products. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.6)

*Reflection:* 
"Have I considered all possible influences? Are there any surprising factors that could explain this shift?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Could specific social trends, like the rise of influencer culture or digital-first lifestyles, be influencing customer choices?"

**2.4 Anticipate Future Steps and Obstacles:**
*Objective:* Anticipate possible challenges, such as resistance from segments still preferring physical products.

My friend sent me this video taken 8/14/15. He blocked out the full sphere of the sun. If you look around the sun you will see objects (he said he saw 100’s throughout the day) flying in all directions. Quote “They stop. Turn around. Slow down. Speed up. Run in packs and follow each other.” Check out the video below. What do you think they are?

This is a compilation of photos (with a deeper look into the hubble images) taken from a video that I find very interesting. What is being hidden, what don’t we know? What is ISON? Is it really a comet? Is it the star system that has been talked about? What will happen when it gets closer to earth? Check this video out!- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0UpZ6xJzPk&feature=share

Centralized earthquake movement like this with a big gap of no quakes below the near bordering line of Mexico to the south and near the border of Canada to the north – might predict a larger earthquake to come. The concentration of small earth movement between California and Washington states is creating a friction that needs to give. The energy needs to be released!!! Be ready. Be prepared.

A small comet plunged into the sun this morning, and just before it arrived, the sun expelled a magnificent full-halo CME. The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) recorded the action. In the final frames of the movie, the comet can be seen furiously vaporizing. Indeed, those were the comet’s final frames. It did not emerge again from its flyby of the hot sun. “With a diameter of perhaps a few tens of meters, this comet was clearly far too small to survive the intense bombardment of solar radiation,” comments Karl Battams of the Naval Research Lab, who studies sungrazing comets.

The CME (coronal mass ejection) came from an explosion on the farside of the sun. Although the CME and the comet appear to intersect, there was probably no interaction between the two. The comet is in the foreground and the farside CME is behind it.

Occasionally, readers ask if sundiving comets can trigger solar explosions. There’s no known mechanism for comets to spark solar flares. Comets are thought to be too small and fragile to destabilize the sun’s magnetic field. Plus, this comet was still millions of kilometers from the sun when the explosion unfolded.

The comet, R.I.P., was a member of the Kreutz family. Kreutz sungrazers are fragments from the breakup of a single giant comet many centuries ago. They get their name from 19th century German astronomer Heinrich Kreutz, who studied them in detail.

This past week we have had some significant earthquakes- last night August 15, a 6.8 struck New Zealand’s mainland. August 13, a 6.6 hit the south of Panama. August 12, a 6.2 hit near the northern coast of Peru. August 12, a 6.0 hit Kermadec Islands Region and less than a day before that a 6.0 hit Kepulauan Babar, Indonesia.

Seems like a lot of major activity between only a couple days!

Is ISON or our second sun influencing these quakes? Will a major earthquake like never seen before hit Seattle in the coming days? Be prepared for the worst to come.

Between August 17-26 look out for major earth effects from Planet “x”, “Nibiru”, “2nd sun”, “wormwood” ‘s planetary system passing between earth and our sun. Be prepared for debris, extreme solar radiation, tsunamis, +15 earthquakes- the earth is being tugged by this massive planetary system. It’s visible- don’t be ignorant. Be prepared!

Below is a compilation of photos friends and family took at random, some posted on fb- they don’t even realize what is shown in the image!!!! I feel the need to point it out- is that the moon? We say… Well- I sure as hell would like to think so.

The past might always repeat itself, like in concept of cycles. Is the past forgotten that we can never really move forward? Does that memory get lost? Or do we all really know its just easy to stick with “old habits”? Energy doesn’t die, it transforms. The old energy exists today- the vibes and waves are still flowing from “the beginning” (of this cycle of creation) the endless creation and recreation of elements, gas, stars, galaxies, and black space….etc. How many cycles has there been- maybe we’re 55th- maybe 55,555,555???? Or maybe this is the first and the last?

How many types of life lived here on earth? We aren’t the first, from what we know- we had dinosaurs roaming the earth millions of years ago. The earth is 4.54 Billion years old! Are we descendants of an ancient alien race? Where did we come from? Who is the bookkeeper?

We need to wake up and realize we are spinning on a sphere of solid and liquid rock! The inner layers of our earth are as hot as the surface of the sun! Without the liquid outer core we wouldn’t have a magnetic field to protect our atmosphere and hence not be able to support life on earth.

Here is more data about your home:

Earth is the third planet from the Sun, and the densest and fifth-largest of the eight planets in the Solar System. It is also the largest of the Solar System’s four terrestrial planets. It is sometimes referred to as the world or the Blue Planet.
