Welcome to the greatest challenge humanity has ever faced, the central project of our time, and the most deeply rewarding thing you can, or you will, ever do:

Stated metaphorically, this is our collective responsibility -- indeed our moral and ethical obligation -- to:

• Open the billions of "locked treasure chests" that are currently walking this Earth, and unleash their "imprisoned splendors."
• Rescue "most of us [who seem destined to] go to our graves with our music still inside" -- unplayed, unheard.
• Afford every man and woman "the means to live and the meaning to live for."

The data that have prompted the Global Creativity Network conclusively demonstrate our true, quintessentially creative, but historically overlooked nature as humans. The data further suggest that only by providing opportunities for every person to develop and to contribute his or her unique set of abilities in significant actions can we hope to resolve the global epidemic of meaninglessness that is ruining the lives and destinies of countless millions of people around the world, traumatizing communities and national societies, and even threatening our collective survival and the future of our Planet. Furthermore, only by harnessing and beneficially engaging every available human talent can we hope to build a viable and sustainable global civilization that is worthy of our generation and a fitting legacy to future generations of mankind.
