The 7 Belief systems – a 2023 update

Please find below my overhaul of the 2019 version of the 7 Belief systems. With hindsight, I overestimated the power of Technology, and underestimated the revenge of Politics. The first country to restrict the power of its Big Tech sector was China. USA and Europe are still following but lagging. The combination of Data-Info, Money and Technology is worrisome for...

To measure is to know, except in love

"Sayings such as “to measure is to know,” “if you cannot measure it, you cannot improve it,” and “what gets measured gets done” can be traced to at least William Thomson, who later became Lord Kelvin." (2022 study in T&F). There is, however, one exception: we cannot measure Love. My thought, and title above, came up following a discussion on my Valentine's blog:...

Last Thursday, I made the drawing below. Before, I did "see" the various dots but I wasn't able to connect these dots inside my mind. The house analogy suddenly dawned upon me, last Thursday. I'm pleased to present the result. In my view, it might well be my best accomplishment so far. My concept of the 7 Belief systems (eg, 2015 original and 2019 update) is a part...

Opportunism

I've never written about opportunism, despite mentioning it (eg, my blogs of 2022 and 2016). Opportunism may well explain the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. However, the Russian analysis of (mutual) Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (ie, SWOT) clearly failed (badly). My August blog, Calculating women vs opportunistic men, suggests that opportunism...
