About Time-life Navigation © (TLN) siteUsing the site is free. This page is the beginning of a work approach that leads to a time-life navigation work plan . You might want to consider creating a recurring reminder to come back and re-read this page. After absorbing this page, the daily news will be seen differently. This site is not just something else to read. It is at to core of what to do. The major focus of this site is navigating the unfamiliar road ahead—not the familiar road behind—embedded in complex external systems (private, public, and social sectors; a society of organizations; multitiered transnational economy and ecology; complex political structures). These external systems are dynamic, uncontrollable and moving in time. This is the reality that surrounds us. The major focus of this site is navigating the unfamiliar roads ahead—not the familiar road behind. The unfamiliar road ahead is the conceptual space between today and the outer limit of concern on the changing social and economic picture time line (concept map image on left). These unfamiliar roads ahead are embedded in complex external systems that are dynamic (private, public, and social sectors; a society of organizations; a multitiered transnational economy and ecology; complex political structures; the NEW educated person--link). The opportunities of a life-time reside on the roads ahead, not on the road behind. The remainder of our lives occurs on the roads ahead. Currently the time-life navigation © site could be considered the ultimate resource for organizing the work associated with this navigation challenge. Navigation implies intelligently choosing our destinations and then taking the action needed to reach those destinations, but how can we choose from unseen or unfamiliar options? Site functionsThe purpose of this site is to enhance time-life navigation capacity. The site provides a system for getting TO relevant concepts and then getting FROM concepts to daily action embedded in an external world moving in time. The first part of this system began the moment you started reading and will continue as long you continue to work with the site. The second part of the system is outlined in the fundamental action idea below. The site provides a convenient, comprehensive, life-long framework that can be adapted to different situations and objectives at different points in time. The site is a strategic development resource. It is a:
The site can also be "grazed" for idea stimulation; for adding ideas to one's radar; or education preparation. The site contains (text site map):
Peter Drucker's work provides the primary conceptual foundation with a few contributions from Edward de Bono (the nature of the mind and thinking) and Warren Buffett's (financial investing) work. News stories are also woven in to provide mental connecting points to tactical examples and details. This site does not address a static subject or even a subject that is dynamic. It addresses real life in a dynamic reality—at various points in future time—from different angles. It addresses this reality in five key dimensions. Strategic exposure, attention directing, exploration, informed developmental desires/destinations, action harvesting, and scheduling are key elements of this strategic development resource. A few examples of strategic areas:
The exploration of the site alone enhances an individual's capacity and potential. The site provides tools for creating work plans—individually, organizationally and multi-generationally. It provides a blueprint or prototype of a dynamic, healthy action system. It can be redesigned to fit different situations. These works plans address the questions: " What do I have to do (informed in each of the five dimensions) to have the kind of life (informed) I want (informed) to have?" and"What (more or less) do I want to be working on that I don't and can't know I want to working on?" The site provides a blueprint and resource links for working on these questions. A key benefit of the site that may not be immediately obvious is the hyperlinks (relationship connections). The awareness of these relationships and their sequencing can be a major door opener. Another benefit: I have seen several articles in the news suggesting that one of the key ways to prevent or delay the onset of Alzheimer's is through intellectually stimulating activities. The work approach blueprinted on this site provides a life-time of rewarding rigorous brain exercise. Blueprints for blueprints: Although this appears to be a textual page, it is really an element of a prototype blueprint for a time-life navigation © work approach where the detailed tactical stuff we do is derived from a conceptually valid blueprint. The conceptual validity relates to health and the reality in which we are embedded—including disjointedness and receding horizons. More specifically it is a blueprint for creating the blueprints that will guide our journey to receding destinations (where we want to go—moving targets—in the most general terms). The ability to create conceptually valid blueprints is the result of increased individual capacity and creates new capacities—literally "higher education." The site provides tools for promoting oneself through increased capacity and building on strengths rather than waiting for someone else to provide a title. For the site to be useful, action rather than just reading or awareness is needed. Comprehensive and Integrated

“The greatest danger in times of turbulence is not turbulence; it is to act with yesterday’s logic”. — Peter Drucker The shift from manual workers who do as they are being told — either by the task or by the boss — to knowledge workers who have to manage themselves ↓ profoundly challenges social structure …
“Managing Oneself is a REVOLUTION in human affairs.” … “It also requires an almost 180-degree change in the knowledge workers’ thoughts and actions from what most of us—even of the younger generation—still take for granted as the way to think and the way to act.” …
These pages are attention directing tools for navigating a world moving toward unimagined futures. It may be a step forward to actively reject something (rather than just passively ignoring) and then figure out a coping plan for what you’ve rejected. Your future is between your ears and our future is between our collective ears — it can’t be otherwise. A site exploration starting point
