“Infinite-minded leaders understand that “best” is not a permanent state. Instead, they strive to be “better.” “Better” suggests a journey of constant improvement and makes us feel like we are being invited to contribute our talents and energies to make progress in that journey.”
-Simon Sinek
Constant improvement, gains of energy via better efficiency
If you have an apple and I have an apple, and we exchange apples, then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea, and we exchange ideas, then each of us will have two ideas.
George Bernard Shaw
Ideas are most valuable when shared (AND ACCEPTED) - Twitter bad example, because of the second part
- “Energy management beats time management.” ― Katherine Morgan Schafler
If this is true (I believe it is), why do companies focus on time management? Because it’s easier and time is shared, energy isn’t (at least, typically. But it can be if done properly…)
- a community is more than just a group of like-minded people. it requires a shared emotional energy.
Case in point: communities share energy, companies share time
AI is aggregated human intelligence. So it’s better to call it collective intelligence than artificial intelligence.
Emphasizing the collectivity (something built on the commons) over the artificiality (a feat of technology) gives us an entire new way to see, perceive and relate to the technology.
-via Holly Herndon, in conversation with Ezra Klein
This is exactly what abundant systems try to do. It takes the individual efforts as part of the collective, not in isolation.
There is a whole lot of goodness out there when the right systems are in place.
Creativity is not a process. creativity is not scripted.
One of the most salient traits of creative visionaries like Walt Disney and Steve jobs is the absence of process.
Process is an organized way of doing things. But they didn’t have a process. They just did the work. No strict adherence to budget or timelines. Just figure things out on the fly.
