25.01.2022 Numbers Update Got myself a copy of Scrivener today to help my put the book together. Nice little tool. Copied all my writing into the tool 8322 words as of today.... I have my chapter headings and structure - target is 1000 words a day - so far so good. Will have a 70,000 word manuscript by September - which will end up being about 40,000 sexy words after it is edited.
24.01.2022 Hey Beautiful Humans. I had my first discovery session with my publisher this week. I now have a plan to have this all written and out in the world by May next year. Woooot. Today's blog is another exploration of complex problems. (I was meant to close out Open / Dymanic / Networked / Complex today but... It's complicated...)... Love is complicated. Mix Taps are an ode to complication. I love a good mix tape. https://carlheise.com/f/love-is-complicated
24.01.2022 Got a change your are managing? Today I address what people need so that the new organ doesn't get rejected. Also, longer read today, some new concepts introduced to support the framework. And a bunch of ranty swearing, because I am passionate about what humans yearn for.... https://carlheise.com/f/focus-for-we-and-us---the-organ-tra
23.01.2022 Today. I discuss how Tomato's are evil fruit. And Salt is your salvation. Also. How do you get to your Focus? Your big fat yes. https://carlheise.com/f/how-do-i-get-my-big-fat-yes
22.01.2022 I drew this. I made it. Writing today about 'how did we get here'. I am 100% certain I did not answer the question. Which, in a meta way is the answer to that question.... https://carlheise.com/f/you-are-here
21.01.2022 Apologies to all humans I ever taught "Road Not Taken - Robert Frost" to. I lied. Robert lied. It is bullshit. There were never 2 roads. There are many. Many. Many.... Today's thoughts about complex problems and how we solve them. https://carlheise.com/f/i-blame-robert-frost
18.01.2022 Which character? Which movie? Are you? Ren from Footloose.... me. Starting the writing on Focus, this is the introduction to the idea. What it is, why it is important, and why *you* need to believe.... https://carlheise.com/f/footloose-is-documentary-about-my-l
18.01.2022 Wherein I admit not all people are good. But. Most are, and that is what my Focus + Tension is built on. Also. Look at the head on that baby.... https://carlheise.com/f/right-focus-correct-focus-bad-focus
16.01.2022 Scope Creep. *shudders* Can we manage it? Or is it a term we don't need anymore, like "Develop my film"... Problems are Open. Is creating a boundary around the problem the impossible first task we fail at when we seek to transform? #open #focus #tension #Humans #open #complex #problemsolving https://carlheise.com/f/foot-in-3-states-bridge-roam-outpos
15.01.2022 The Peter Principle is real. How do you plan your way out of your 'imposter syndrome'? You can't. You need to get moving. Time to do stuff. https://carlheise.com/f/peter-principle-vs-positive-deviance
15.01.2022 14,281 words as of today. Most of this is scene setting / context / introduction. In the final edit it will be much tighter. I have a section to write on the current business books, and then one on "Why me / why not me?"... And them I am into the framework. Which is really exciting. Will be there before the end of this week. https://carlheise.com/f/eye-am-moving---but-it-all-keeps-ch
14.01.2022 Well. Fuck. That took me nearly 4 weeks to write. And now I can add "stuck" to my list of lived experiences.... The next phase of the book is practical. It is the fun stuff, the cool, challenging, experimental "How can I use this?" stuff. So it should be easy to write, but, fuck no. As an exercise in empathy this has been so valuable. I haven't had to persist much. The fabulous role this universe offered me, has had lots of difficulty, but hasn't required persistence. I find unpleasant, or difficult things that are fulfilling to be energising. I don't need to persist, I just do stuff. But. I have had to persist. The answers I was offering myself as to how to start writing this next phase were simply not compelling. But here it is. I have referred to many of the bits of the framework previously, but I haven't put it all out there. The writing, from here, will apply the framework to developing intentionality in the role of I, and then as we and then as us*. https://carlheise.com/f/the-framework-starts-with-i
14.01.2022 First go at digging into the core Framework today. I have made mention of it, but this will be the writing I base the chapter on to introduce Focus and Tension. Writing is getting to the actor bit, so is less conceptual and more doing. Also. I drew sockets and plugs. ... Yes. https://carlheise.com/f/the-core-framework
14.01.2022 When I was a young boy.... I played a Horn. Nerdy? Sure. In this piece I explore the relationship between belief and actions. And carefully (perhaps unsuccessfully) try to avoid the explosive culture wars that think they are about belief, but are really about actions.... Belief is universal. We all have Belief. Embrace it. Change it? Sure. But. Experiment with your Symbols and Structure. #yesand #belief #change #action #symbols #structure https://carlheise.com/f/dont-talk-about-belief-chromatic-sc Shout out to Nathan Gazsik Vaughan Hughes Murray Ness Fisher Glenn Scott Tinny G Blue Leader and other nerds I played brass with over the years. Fuck I hate chromatic Scales.
14.01.2022 Focus = Tick Lets dig into Tension - this is where you get to play, and contradict yourself, and head in 5 directions at once. https://carlheise.com/f/actually-go-ahead-make-my-day
13.01.2022 This is Daisy. She normally sits on the corner of my sons bed staring at the corner. Waiting for him to wake up. But. Because she is a cat. And I wanted a photo of her staring at the corner, she decided to ignore me and curl up in a ball. So let's end with that challenge. (Because herding cats is part of change...) You got shit to do. Why are you curled up in a ball on the foot of your bed?... Also. This Blog explores why you ran out of money, and your project failed. https://carlheise.com/f/why-are-you-staring-at-the-wall
12.01.2022 Soooo I went full Jerry Maguire today... Ask yourself if you are going to yell (even silently to yourself) SHOW ME THE MONEY! today... if you are, we need to talk. I can help you with getting over that. I link to the actual Manifesto from the movie in my piece today. Three simple questions, What, How, Who. Get them in the wrong order and it breaks things.... Also I hit 40,000 words this morning. Which is exciting, and also tragic. Of the 40k I have, I will probably end up using about 15K. It's a journey right? https://carlheise.com/f/the-things-we-think-and-do-not-say-
08.01.2022 Ferris or Deadpool. I know which one I am... Today's writing is about the open borders of a problem, and how that is like a stage. We are all on a stage... https://carlheise.com/f/welcome-to-my-life-chka-chkaaaaaahh
08.01.2022 Bad shit happens, but good shit happens too - Michael Franti You just kicked you foot on the leg of the chair. Worse. It was your little pinky toe. It is difficult to find a silvering with that ... and ... you get to choose ... get sweary (important healing step) ... and destroy the chair with a hammer, or worse, with passive aggression ... ignore that fucking chair all day ... think about it, obsess a little, but don't look at it sit in it ....... And / or channel Michael Franti - bad shit happens and good shit happens, let it happen to you. If the thing you need to most, after stubbing your toe, is the comforting embrace of that chair on your buttocks WHY THE FUCK are you ignoring the chair. Don't make it worse, by making it worse. Also. It's fucking hard to 'get over it. I need a reset practice. Music helps. You? What's your reset practice? https://youtu.be/TiH0Cvm3ge0
07.01.2022 If you don't know what your focus should be, start with "wholeness". Dichotomy = BAD. Wholeness = Ace.... https://carlheise.com/f/yes-and-bill-and-teds-plural-journey
06.01.2022 Hey Humans. This is so much fun. I get to use my favourite phrase and make an Incredibles reference in today's exploration of Dynamic problems. Find a challenge and let's talk. DM me or on the thread. ... Love to listen. https://carlheise.com/f/you-sly-dog-you-had-me-monologuing-
03.01.2022 Today I look at the importance of some of my favourite words. They look like big brain smart arse words, and I'd use different ones if I could. But they are just so cool, and describe stuff I don't have other words for. Dialogic. Heteroglossia. Get around it. ... Also, the difference between: Processed: BAD BAD BAD Process: Good Good Good. https://carlheise.com/f/eat-whole-foods-go-organic-focus-fo
01.01.2022 Exploring ideas about teams, make up of teams, diversity / difference on teams. Also. Brady Bunch. Team Jan or Team Marcia? Not even going to ask about Team Greg or Team Peter.... Coz Greg is a twat. https://carlheise.com/f/brady-bunch-cross-functional-team
