Chapter 1047 -638: Reflections on Leadership_3
However, it was evident that from the Devouring Worms and Hive Battleships encountered by the Nameless Fleet, the Compound-Eyed Observer had never revealed its true cards in previous conflicts, let alone in the long war across the nine past timelines.
Humanity is not destined to win, which many people should understand. Yet unknowingly, humans had jumped into the pit they had dug for the Compound-Eyed Observer.
This pit is not a tactical scheme, nor a strategic trickery, but a thought trap that involves the direction of ideology at a higher level.
No one can escape this, as it affects all of humanity.
Unknowingly, too many people have developed incorrect perceptions in their minds, thinking that humanity can counterattack the Compound-Eyed Observer and even the Slave Tribe legions much more formidable than the previous Prism Ships without going all out. They believe that humans have mastered the key to victory.
No one denies that the history of human defeats in the Void, but the unseen history of the Void is indeed shallower than the actual history and cannot form enough mental imprints.
Moreover, under the subconscious programming left by Harrison Clark, this group of people firmly believe in the superiority of humans as the core species of the universe.
The taut string of living toward death that has been stretched in the hearts of people in the past has relaxed, giving rise to overconfidence.
Confidence is not a bad thing, but excessive confidence can lead to complacency.
This is wrong.
Here’s what it should be like.
In a situation where defeat is certain, blind confidence can cheer people up.
This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.
However, when there is a real chance of victory, confidence should be withdrawn, and respect should be maintained for other advanced civilizations born in the infinite universe.
Everyone understands this principle, but the subtlety of human nature lies in knowing what’s right but not doing it.
The emergence of a so-called free-will mentality, in reality, blind confidence in escaping, evident in the Nameless Fleet’s long-standing covert operations and detachment from the main civilization for too long, is a striking manifestation.
Within the Empire, although there is the powerful Imperial Government, World-saving Organization, Spacetime Topology Research Institute, and the Sage Institute controlling the overall situation, and the increase in average gene awakening also brings stronger innovation and productivity, the problems have gradually emerged. However, these issues are not as apparent as during the internal strife within the Nameless Fleet, and the disagreements are slightly smaller.
Most people within the Empire still care about the overall interests of civilization, but there are still many who indulge in pleasure.
Excessive inferiority and self-righteous escapism are still budding.
Various scientific and unscientific sects have even appeared in some star zones.
Under the complete Imperial Republican system, different client systems have also been formed in various star zones according to different natural and cultural environments, such as military system, republican system, parliamentary system, religious system, scientio-religious system, scientific system, industrial system, agricultural system, entertainment system, and so forth. Different complex ideologies and cultural attributes influence each other.
Only by compelling the numerous different systems can the Empire become a melting pot of various sorts.
This complex overall environment is shaking humanity’s united will.
This is a slow process of decay, as well as the potential crisis of internal division and disintegration of humanity.
This is inevitable; human thought has uncertainty and unlimited randomness.
Short lives are both an advantage and a disadvantage for human beings. Earthlings find it hard to keep their ideology unchanged for hundreds of thousands or even millions of years, like the Compound-Eyed Observer, through immortal cloning.
Now, people in the combat areas and the rear are gradually diverging in their consciousness, and due to the differences in cognition and racial personality, this differentiation is intensifying.
Many knowledgeable scholars have already realized the problem. Some even turn to Dylan Mitchell and other fleet members who have experienced turmoil for advice.
This issue has indeed troubled Dylan Mitchell for several months and is the basis of his discussions with Austin Camp.
Dylan Mitchell once again began to reflect on the causes and consequences of the last internal conflict.
He believes that although the plan was formulated by his mentor Quentin Cooper, and he executed the plan, Tiffany Bell is undoubtedly the key to turning the tide.
It was Tiffany Bell’s presence that stabilized the situation at a crucial moment and allowed the fleet to regroup.
The smooth progress of the follow-up work is closely related to Tiffany Bell’s formidable strength and her unshakable lofty status in the hearts of all fleet members.
After the internal strife, the fleet members have regained a dialectical outlook on life, learning to face responsibility.
In the key battles after the successful implementation of the Fleet Commonwealth, there was no coercion, no hegemony, and no suspicion. Everyone united as one.
Everyone understands that even if they are advancing for different beliefs, they must move forward towards eternity.
It is precisely because of this that the fleet was able to escape the desperate situation created by the joint efforts of Devouring Worms and Hive Battleships.
Now the fleet is dispersed, and everyone is divided into thousands of paths, but under the stronger cohesion of the Fleet Commonwealth, Quentin Cooper emotionally believes that the others will be able to reunite by 2960. However, rationally, he thinks some action should be taken to prevent the unforeseen outcome.
Forty years is long enough for dynasties to change in the slow-paced ancient past, let alone today.
That’s why Dylan Mitchell believes his thinking is not just reciprocal to the Empire, but also helping himself.
Dylan Mitchell has spent many sleepless nights pondering and taking notes. He finally writes a text by hand.
“Only great leaders can become the spiritual pillars of ordinary people, enabling them with their limited capabilities and biases to embark on the right path without knowing all the truths.”
“What leaders leave to humanity is not just the tangible results but an indelible spiritual force.”
“Truly great leaders are hard to come by, requiring a combination of timing, geographic advantage, and interpersonal relationships. In the long river of time, civilizations are bound to face a leadership gap; the spiritual force left by leaders must be passed down.”
“The transmission of spiritual force should be human to human instead of relying on artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence lacks emotions, and therefore cannot teach each person’s true spiritual attributes.”
“What can we do to imprint spiritual marks on people’s hearts?”
