What is your way?

Design people can inspire us in dealing with problems embracing complexity and tapping into multiple resources and humanities.

IDEO is fascinating in the way that they think about people, the way that they think about recruiting. They describe their ideal employee as a T-shaped person. The horizontal stroke of the T means that this is a person that is deeply interested and able to engage fluently in lots and lots of different topics, but the vertical stroke of the T is their expertise, their deep expertise in one area.

This is a perspective from reading the book 4000 weeks - Time management for mortals

Let’s ponder the fact that we barely live in the present as we constantly think about future outcomes. We differ value forward but never cash out.

One solution is to look for task oriented actions versus time oriented actions. Look for leisure hobbies as opposed to self improvement hobbies that are future focused activities. Many creative endeavours fit this mindset.

The metric should be about matching your to-do lists and your available time" as opposed to doing more things.

What if you knew there's never going to be enough time?
