Spiral Dynamics Stage Orange Examples Mega-Thread

Fascinating documentary about an "Amish Atheist" who leaves his Amish community after his rational mind could no longer overlook the contradictions in the Bible. He mostly maintains his lifestyle but now has an electric car and iPhone. Amazing example of Blue moving into Orange.

I don't think "win-win" is orange. Orange seems more win-lose to me. In stage yellow win-win gets unlocked, green pretends to be win-win, but actually it is still win-lose.

There is actual win-win, and then there's talk of win-win which actually benefits one party a lot more.

Orange TALKS win-win while bending the other guy over.

Is there anything like a Silent Orange, where the Orange is not too aggressive in pursuit or boastful of their achievements?

Of course. That's mostly how Orange is.

Silent Orange is a scientist in a lab working on a vaccine for Covid or building the next rocketship to Mars. Or a doctor or a computer programmer putting in a solid day's work. Nothing flashy.

I dunno, a Blue redneck might be capable of that as well.

But I guess most American rednecks are Blue/Orange.

Silent Orange.

 

Also, your average silent Joe still boasts when he has a nice house, a nice watch and a nice car. You dont have to be an A-hole to be boastful, you can show it by wearing fancy stuff. Symbolic Interaction. :P

I'm just trying to focus on cultivating a healthy orange. Although I was super orange when I was a teen, I did great at school and college, but I sort of went in a direction that I started to demonize it, but now I can see it's not all bad, maybe my cultural environment made it bad because they don't know how to navigate it without toxicity, but now I know it can be great to have a dose of healthy Orange, just I don't want to hang around the toxic Orange type because they are plenty and don't want to absorb their energy or have their energy rub on me. But I'm sick of Green.. It's not bad to be green but it makes me a bit irrational sometimes..

Yeah, this could also be lower stages. But it is parodying the Rocky movies which are Orange for sure :)
