Pie in the Sky

Dreams.

I’m hesitant to use the word ‘dreams’.

The word has a touchy-feely quality that makes me feel kinda icky. ‘Dreams’ can seem kinda pie-in-the-sky. Especially in business.

It’s not that ‘dreams’ are unrealistic or unreal. God, no.

It’s that people often use the word to talk about things they’re not acting in direction of. They use ‘dreams’ to discuss the things that they hope to get, but are doing nothing to create.

What they’re talking about is dreaming.

And it’s a whole other kettle of fish.

Where You Wish to Go

Baby Steps

[tweetmeme] It’s hard not to indulge in the BIG Questions. It’s tough not to focus on The End we have in mind.

Stop freaking yourself out by thinking you need to know how to get There today.

You don’t have the answers.

Stop indulging and paralyzing your mind with BIG Questions you don’t have the answers for.

Take one daily action. And in that action, keep your goal in mind.

Speedy Gonzales

Speedy Gonzales

[tweetmeme] When we rush to do something, we can waste a lot of energy forcing action when we are not ready.

When we hurry, we aren’t giving our self the space to let our answers come, or allowing our self the time to understand our choices.

If it really is that important, can we really afford to hurry it?

Walking the Tightrope

Tightrope Elastic Mind

[tweetmeme] Ever feel like you’re walking a tightrope? That’s because you are. We all are.

All complex adaptive systems (that’s you!) walk a tightrope between too much structure and too little.

Too much structure…

and chaos! Organic systems become rigid and unresponsive to their environment and they eventually die.

To little structure…

and chaos! Organic systems become overly sensitive to environmental disturbances. They can’t maintain their organization and eventually disintegrate.
