Building a Global Flowism Community: My Journey

I live and share Flowism in the most human way possible to benefit as many humans as possible.

This is my Dream, my what. It’s fueled by my Story (why) and fuels my Flow (how). My 108s are the history of how well I’ve been Flowing.

Live and Share Flowism and Way of the 108

My dream is to grow Flowism and Way of the 108 into a global community of practitioners who are connected digitally, through virtual meetups and dedicated apps, and physically through everything from weekly meetings at coffee shops to dedicated physical spaces. I will be writing a series of blog posts that go into all of the details of my 108-cycle (36-year) Dream. The first major milestone of that Dream is creating a physical space for Flowism in Taipei, Taiwan.

The Flowism Roadmap

This is a living document outlining the journey of building Flowism and Way of the 108. It’s a flexible path of clear, measurable milestones that mark the progression from a deep personal practice to a thriving, self-sustaining community. As milestones are completed, this document will be updated to reflect the progress.

Foundational Milestones

  • Achieve Personal Mastery: Live the system with deep integrity for 9 cycles and become the first and best case study. This is about proving the practice to myself before sharing it with the world.
  • Codify the Wisdom: Solidify the philosophy and its primary system into their definitive first versions. This creates the foundation for others to learn from and build upon.
    • The Problem: Clearly explain what problems Flowism solves that other philosophies and systems do not.
    • The Philosophy: Clearly lay out the principles of Flowism.
    • The Practice: A clear guide for practicing the foundational system of Flowism, Way of the 108
  • Share the Path: Create a public home for the philosophy and system when the foundational texts are ready.

Building the Public Platform

  • Build the First Landing Page: Create a simple, focused webpage that will serve as the initial point of contact for individuals interested in joining the Way of the 108 cycles.
  • Refine the Core Writing Practice: Use the personal blog as a training ground to develop a clear, focused, and high-quality writing style suitable for the Flowism website, books, and courses.
  • Refine the Video Creation System: Develop a consistent and sustainable process for creating tight, actionable, and high-quality video content suitable for an evergreen Way of the 108 YouTube channel.
  • Write the First Free Book: Create a personal, story-driven introduction to the practice that serves as a warm and generous invitation into the world of Flowism.
  • Develop the First Onboarding Course: Create a guided, automated path (e.g., an email course) for new practitioners to learn the fundamentals and join the community.
  • Establish the Core Social Media Presence: Activate the primary social media accounts for the Way of the 108 to share the daily practice and build the initial audience.
  • Launch the Way of the 108 Website: Build a dedicated online “Dojo” for the practical system, where people can learn the “how” and find resources.
