Starting to see the path, and maybe even the steps needed


I am starting to see that this missing capacity: the capacity to see a process ((noun: process; plural noun: processes
a series of actions or steps taken in order to achieve a particular end.
"military operations could jeopardize the peace process"
synonyms: procedure, operation, action, activity, exercise, affair, business, job, task, undertaking
"investigation is a long process")) , design a process, to have a strategy, is what"s missing to take me out of the one woman band existence.


You can"t delegate unless you know what someone needs to do and how it fits into your process or overall strategy.


You can"t have a staff... for the same reason. You can"t lead... because you don"t know where you are going.


Not having this capacity means duplicate work, work that wasn"t needed was done, work that was needed wasn"t done...

Is Sophie a fake? Can she activate a DNA capacity for herself? A capacity she obviously never had?


I have been re-reading Dan Millman"s The Life You Were Born To Live.

I don"t know why I am reading it, but here is what I have found that is worth mentioning:


What used to be too much English is suddenly clear, concise, and applicable. The text didn"t change, I did. Obviously I am playing with a fuller deck...

I get, again and again reminded of my Achilles heel: I have a missing capacity that is probably responsible for many of my failures, and all of my no successes.

Could you learn to be an investor like Warren Buffet? If you had the time, the teachers, the money?


I shared a few bits here and there today with my chiropractor... He has 13 capacities used.

The conversation was an utter and total failure.

Capacities, abilities, is a whole new concept, and he wasn"t even getting a glimpse of what I was talking about. Very interesting.

It seems that the mistaken belief is that you can learn anything... including being an investor like Warren Buffet... that is a total illusion: you cannot learn anything that you don"t have the capacities for.

Most types of learning, like classes, coaching, etc. don"t take you to a place where the capacity missing would turn on, because you are ready for it and need it, It is not deep enough water, so the sink or swim would apply. Especially if you think you should be able to do it...

Big mistake.

How superiority blocks you from growing. Are you perceptive, astute?


I do a lot of "work" that doesn"t look like work.

For example, asking the question: Is being perceptive a capacity?

It turns out that it is. It is on a scale of one to 100... very perceptive, somewhat perceptive, not perceptive.

Cats are not perceptive. Partially because their eyes are calibrated to only notice movement. A non-moving tasty bit of food, mouse, bug is like doesn"t exist for a cat. That is probably why they only eat food that stinks to my human nose... ugh. They can"t see it, can"t judge it from its look, color, etc.

Not perceptive.

So, in effect, perceptive is a capacity to see details, see much.
