Enthralling discovery!

By Bamboo In The Wind
Finding the course is enthralling when we can make the right moves. Just the freedom to make those moves is enough. But a rather crucial step after getting started is immediately learning the effects of our actions.

Doing so has a few effects:
  • It tells us what is working. How would we know that? We would know it because we can comprehend the next step based on it. What we have done has established a building block.
  • It tells us what is not working. That requires a little bit of work. It is intuitive, from the evidence of the development. We need help configuring our following best response when results are unanticipated.
  • It tells us we are off course. We need to rework the landscape of what we are chasing, rebuild the understanding by correcting our base assumptions, and then restart afresh.
As straightforward as it appears, along these paths lies an experience of how we are supported or questioned. That usually means we emit signals from our workspace that catch favorable or unfavorable responses. Usually, it's a sign of our attempt to find a course with broader interest than us alone.

It is like learning to bicycle for the first time. We fall, get entangled, and need to know how to use the pedal or break or which way to steer the handle to make progress. If we alone cannot, others along the way are sure to help steer correctly. We must trust that our march is heartfelt, it will attract at least a few! 

That is usually sufficient to know we are on a discovery mission. On our way to pursuing a worthy cause, on a look out of the right course that takes us there! 

It is bound to get figured out.

Checks and balances!

By Bamboo In The Wind
Defining a good purpose, setting a target goal and getting people working on them is usually not enough! There are too many aspects involved in getting the results we want. For example, there is an aspect of painting the big picture, working on motivation management, productivity tracking, building experimentation labs, and erecting resilient systems that systematize the workflows. Just putting bodies to work and defining milestones rarely achieves the right results. The other aspects that help march towards the milestones in an orderly manner, they are equally important. At the very least, they make objectives widely understandable and results more attainable. The job of a thought leader is to enable progress and enable recovery. Therefore, it is never enough to have just ideas. Those with ideas also have the responsibility to assemble the work environment in such a way as to create situations containing the energy disperses. Energy dispersal from lack of clarity, loss of motivation, ...

Liked? Or Respected?

By Bamboo In The Wind
It is easy to bend backwards and accomodate others. When you do so, it is obvious to generate affection that leads to you being likeable. You tend to be always available, seek others' attention more that what your needs are for yourself, or do things to transactionally connect with others. As long as you continue doing what others prefer, you are sure to be liked! And who does not like to liked like that! People pleasing acts have huge downsides. It is different when you set boundaries, take a principled stand about when do you indulge with collaborative activity involving others and when you focus on your priorities. Principles drive energies, brings rigor and sets responsibilities. It is governed with consistency and you come across that uniform, thought and consistent in any and every situation as against preferential. Obviously, principled person is hard to pierce into. When you do, you will discover rythem of clear communication, prioritisation, importance of building long-ter...

Own it!

By Bamboo In The Wind
Owning is an act of proactive work.  You own through willingness and willingness emerges as a result of feeling the sense of belonging. Initiative helps define baby steps that gives you access to responsibility. Responsibility allows you to take actions that give you the power to influence but never control the outcomes. However, this act of taking baby steps eventually lets us be owners - of our own decisions. Owning vital responsibility usually results in desired results and happiness for yourselves or owning responsibility can sometimes mean taking an arduous endless path to make those around you happy. The best you can do is to own your decisions and accept the outcomes you get.
