The title comes from Seneca who said, “The science of life requires a whole lifetime.” And the subtitle comes from our man Archimedes.

This month, we’ve talked about taking a tactical pause after the hectic month of January and establishing a defensive perimeter to confirm our azimuth.

Then, we talked about covering our weaknesses with a PDF or Principal Direction of Fire.

Next, we went over the necessity of swinging our compass to ensure it is still leading us where we think we are going, and using Handrails to keep us on track.

Finally, last week, we hit on defining our ethos to establish our golden mean or the center of the path we want to travel.

Next month we are going to dive into the concept of Lines of Effort. If you have been reading since the beginning, you may remember this concept, but one of the nice things about producing this weekly post is that I have the opportunity/requirement to spend a lot of time ruminating on the things I know or think I know and as I return to previous topics I realized that I have learned a lot in the process.

I have been trying to find a way to display the things I have been writing about graphically, and am finally ready to share it.

I think this can serve as a lever long enough to let you move your world.
