\"Tightrope<\/a><\/p>\n

Ever feel like you’re walking a tightrope? That’s because you are. We all are.<\/p>\n

All complex adaptive systems<\/a> (that’s you!) walk a tightrope between too much structure and too little.<\/p>\n

Too much structure…<\/h3>\n

and chaos! Organic systems become rigid and unresponsive to their environment and they eventually die.<\/p>\n

To little structure…<\/h3>\n

and chaos! Organic systems become overly sensitive to environmental disturbances. They can’t maintain their organization and eventually disintegrate.<\/p>\n

Living at the edge of chaos<\/h3>\n

This is where life and creativity exist.<\/strong> They can’t be limited by too much structure or failed to let unfold in the moment through too much planning.<\/p>\n

It’s a process of listening to, and trusting in, the ideas within us; then revealing those ideas through our action.<\/p>\n

Your business is no different<\/h3>\n

Contrary to traditional belief and our anxious minds, too much structure is not of benefit to your business. Nor is following someone else’s idea of structure. What is<\/strong> of benefit is listening to yourself, and paying attention to your environment.<\/p>\n

W<\/strong>hat unfolds for your business will not be preordained by ‘vision’ or ‘strategy’<\/strong>, but by the choices you make and their long-term consequences. The future is yours to create in this present moment.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Stay present to what is evolving and stay aligned with your intention.<\/h3>\n

Walk the tightrope of chaos by making choices based upon the life and world you want to be.
