To live under constraint is a misfortune, but there is no constraint to live under constraint.” Seneca quoting Epicurus, Letters XII
Culture creates new culture at the constraints.
You know you’re at the constraints when you’re asking questions like:
Where do we go from here?
How do we handle these types of problems?
What do we do now?
Has anybody seen this before?
When you are in those moments, you get the opportunity to create culture.
What if we do…
How about we…
I recommend we…
I’ve seen this work in the past elsewhere, we could that … here…
Enjoy the constraints.
