Today's topic is one of my favorite mixed mental arts. Join in as we look at an old Japanese tradition and what that can teach us about relationships, culture, and yes, even things we own.

Today's topic continues our Keys to Innovation series and discusses the very common problem that everyone thinks their problems are unique like a unicorn. It’s a persistent failure mode for innovation, project execution, and process optimization. Thankfully there’s a common set of tools that we can apply to solve these ‘unique’ problems. It’s a fun mind twist so let’s dive in!

Today's topic focused exclusively on a persistent behavior humans have where, when faced with two truths that are incompatible with our worldview, our brains will glitch and eliminate the problem entirely.

Today's topic swings back to Systems Thinking, one of our foundational tools here on Polymathic Being. We keep being asked if we can further distill the concept for broader application. While there’s risk in over-simplification, let’s explore a simple mantra that anyone can use to apply Systems Thinking and unlock true innovation that balances ethics, safety, and risk.

Today's topic looks at how to turn sacred cows into delicious burgers. At least that’s the way some have described how Polymathic Being uncovers unique insights. It’s a perception that warrants critique to recognize what we are doing, the techniques, and tools we are using, and whether we are having the best benefit.
