Developing and periodically redesigning a time-life navigation work planThis approach is the opposite of floating through life or assuming that tomorrow will be a continuation of today. It suggests consciously designing our developmental destinations and paths This page and some of its linked pages need updating to reflect major site additions over the last few years—no time right now. The basic message remains valid. See early career work; managing oneself; life design, conceptual resource list; and concepts to daily action for life radar elements.
The law of the farm: we can only harvest what we plant and only part of what we plant will be harvested. The part we harvest is very likely to be different from what we originally expected (see Chapter 7, "Entrepreneurs and Innovation" in Peter Drucker's "Managing in the Next Society"). Additionally we can only plant what's on our radar. Conceptually valid work plans pass the "news test"—the repeated themes running through the news. Another test of these work plans is where they can be reasonably expected to lead and leave the individual in the future(s). If an informed outsider were looking at someone's else work plan where would they expect it to take the plan author in the future(s)? Would it be a healthy position in the future(s)? In the career (work life) evolution dimension, maybe one important test would be the position (the global standing) of an individual following an organization crisis that resulted in the individual leaving the organization. You could test this on various organizations that have undergone major downsizings or reorganizations: K-Mart, IBM, Xerox, FAO Schwarz, Chrysler, Kodak, Poloroid, or a local organization to observe the differences in position. What is the position of those who delay leaving?
Where does routine operational or functional work (of 1950, 1965, 1980, 1995) lead? Is creating and pursuing "bright ideas" adequate for "healthy" time-life navigation?
At different times in our lives we need to integrate ourselves in different ways. This means the work plan needs a provision for recreating the work plan.
As you're exploring this site you may run across the following symbol: The fundamental action idea:
The items you note for further time allocation may be an external link, a page, an image or concept map, a paragraph, a sentence, or a thought the exploration produces. Repeating the process can be used for layering on new elements, terrain vision enhancement in a specific area or just attention refocusing (out of sight, out of mind). This is a life-long, multi-generational approach.
The sooner the work is started the better. Having just a elementary synthesis foundation provides a different and enhanced capacity for "viewing" the daily news—reports from life's battlefields.
Be sure to visit the site usage page. The entire site process (multi-generalizationally) can be calendarized and part of your radar. This site repeatedly raises the question: "what do I have to do (informed in each of the five dimensions) to have the kind of life (informed) I want (informed)?" and then provides a blueprint and resource links for working on this question. THINK: Edward de Bono Together the end result and the fundamental action idea are part of a life long action system |

What’s the next effective action on the road ahead
It’s up to you to figure out what to harvest and calendarize It may be a step forward to actively reject something (rather than just passively ignoring) and then working out a plan for coping with what you’ve rejected.
Your future is between your ears and our future is between our collective ears — it can’t be otherwise.
