I’ve reading Gary Vee about this today. The email was from Dec 20th 2021, but the simplicity message is close to me as far as 2003 when I read something about:
Simplicity–the art of maximizing the amount of work not done–is essential.
— The Agile Manifesto
This was mind blowing as I was learning about this thing called agility and extreme programming.
(mais…)You can postpone some dreams and projects, but sometimes we are moving things away to some point in time where we can’t actually figure when it is going to happen.
This is not right, right?
I mean, we should be able to define some sort of checkpoint. Sometimes we can’t even cancel stuff, because we are waiting something.
(mais…)I think about grit as long term commitment to something. I see grit as having joy to the effort being done.
It’s not about repetition. It’s about real life experiences, changing pace, structure, complexity and so on.
And all that with rhythm. That’s where grace comes in.
(mais…)I’m sure we need to start with a reason, but we also need options.
I like to think I have options. At least two or three.
If I have more options, even better.
The hard part is taking responsibility for the choice.
(mais…)Scrum is the problem! Are you sure?
(mais…)I’m talking about an education revolution that should be in place everywhere. Sigh.
We start with lots of curiosity in place. We are capable to ask questions. We want to know all the answers. But soon we start seeing people telling us things are the way they are. People telling WHAT we need to learn and HOW we need to learn. And… could you elaborate on the why? They can… because they SAID so.
(mais…)We need to move forward. We need to understand what we need to see.
Can’t you see?
How can you learn from what’s in front of you?
(mais…)Does it really matter? What really matters?
Sometimes we do what we do because of something that starts invisible.
(mais…)Structure works somewhat like rules and they are not good if you are thinking about the future.
You may need to think about strategy and principles that help you set a foundation. But… you don’t want any sort of structure to damage your thinking process.
(mais…)
