The ChallengeLeading the new order can be daunting….

There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things, because the innovator has for enemies all those who have done well under the old conditions and lukewarm defenders in those who may do well under the new.

Machiavelli (1446-1507)

Think Young; Think Fresh.

“almost always the men who achieve… fundamental inventions of a new paradigm have been either very young or very new to the field whose paradigm they change.”

Thomas Kuhn, ‘The Structure of Scientific Revolutions’

Learning a new field, whether one is young or old, can help break down associative barriers.

Review 1 – Intersectional ideas

“Intersectional ideas are ground breaking, then, because the concepts involved are so different and the combinations so unusual that no one would have thought them possible. Although such combinations do not always lead to anything useful, sometimes they do – and in those cases, they can work just like magic.”

‘The Medici Effect’, p.69

No Limits Excellence:• Sailing backwards…• Over-speed towing

SpiritAsked to identify just what it was that created such chasm between him and his contemporaries, Woods’ answer bordered on the spiritual.

“I told Stevie (Williams, his New Zealand caddie) walking up 18, there comes a point in time when you feel tranquil, when you feel calm; at ease with yourself,” he said. “And I felt that way this week and I felt that way in ’97 at Augusta. For some reason, things just flowed. No matter what you do, good or bad, it really doesn’t get to you… everything’s just alright.”

“Master breaks 138-year record”by Robert Lusetich (The Australian 20/6/00)

Spirit

“Maybe that’s just because when your mind is clear, natural instincts take over and you let yourself play to the best standard possible.”Adam Gilchrist(128 off 98, versus NZ)February 2000
