systems analysis

When you attempt to move too fast, you tend to add insult to injury. Time schedules are built to push and every minute not active is money down the drain, when money is the only resource that matters to anybody and everybody. It is time to let the chase go - to watch it all shrink wrap together as the system is being played by too many people in too many ways. Other systems have been crowded howdt, but each and every one of us is able to construct our own system - sort of like an operating system for the human.

At the PUR meeting yesterday, we heard from a meek and mild mannered college professor who wants to capture the essence of our council for a how-to manual. People much prefer other people telling them how to do things - especially authority figures, so that they can blame others when those things they were told don't work. In reality - rolling up the sleeves and putting in the effort is the only way to get the work done - and it doesn't seem to be worth doing if the only reimbursement is in money. You have to have the interest to do something well - and the money should follow. except today, it doesn't follow because it is too busy chasing other money.
