That is an interesting title. I am highly right brain dominant myself. 🦊

Ooh you may enjoy it then, for its principles but also as artefact on how these ideas were being talked about almost 20 years ago.

Thank you! And yes! It shaped my thinking on many things just I was starting out in adult life.

Yes- seeing the big picture is important for understanding and overall goals but it’s the details that get us there.

I like the name change. I do understand symphonic though, because that’s how I think all the time - “It concerns itself not with a particular spruce but with the whole forest - not with the bassoon player or the first violinist but with the entire orchestra.” I have to force myself to write and think more specifically and concretely.

Oh Mary, you are my people! 😄 That’s also my challenge, bringing myself out of the complex/eternal view long enough to communicate usefully. I love hearing from others who think like that.

I have been walking about like a stack of books since reading this. Love the idea of Living libraries all over the place. Symphonia - the whole forest, the whole orchestra, the whole person. A great umbrella term for your work.

Thank you! And yes I love the sense that we are all living libraries. It feels a deeply loving a human way of conceptualising people to me. 😌
