Perpetual

Pre-Labor Day...

As we approach the day called labor, the coach muses on the nature of work and how it's depicted in our culture. I've always been confused by the way work took you away from what you loved to do. Or at least that's the way it seemed to the coach.

I see it differently now, more holistically as it were. And part of this is better recognizing the power of design. Or maybe it's the power of the cognitive, generative motherlode of innovation of which the human mind is capable.

Maybe in this time of seemingly great risk, opportunities exist that balance the scale. And that we have the capacity to design our path through this best of all possible worlds. If not design outright, then perhaps co-design.

The curiosity about this possibility certainly feels better than its opposite notion, that a chaos of bad nasty endings are all we can expect on our way to the boneyard.

I like the curiosity; it feels fresh, new. The other notion is old and perpetual and boring.

So the issue answers itself.

Research. Data. Analytics.

Breakthrough.
