#Quotes #Oranges #Possibilities #AKRamanujan
A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
You can sometimes count every orange on a tree but never all the trees in a single orange. -A.K. Ramanujan, poet (16 Mar 1929-1993) -
"Stop managing 'what is'; start creating 'what could be.'" - Futurist Jim Carroll
Here's a thought to start your Monday: the gap between "what is" and "what could be" is where the future is either won or lost.
I've long seen this trap with leadership teams in many events I've done - organizations become so efficient at managing the current reality (aka the "what is") that they lose the capacity to create "what could be." They spend their energy defending last year's logic, perfecting declining business models, and negotiating terms for a world that no longer exists. They spend all their time on what was yesterday, instead of focusing on what could be tomorrow.
And that's obviously just the wrong thing to do.
If you want to move the needle, you have to stop managing all your realities and start chasing the possibilities. This requires a fundamental rethink in how you think things:
From "What Is" to "What If": Stop looking at what mattered yesterday and focus on what will be critical tomorrow.
From Administration to Agility: Always keep in mind my Master's in Business Imagination idea - we don't need more MBAs, we need MBIs! There are too many people 'administering' things, and not enough imagining them! While others are bogged down in analysis, the winners are moving quickly, decisively.
From "Can't" to "Must": Make tomorrow real. Confronting the reality of where it will take you is the first step toward mastering. Absolutely refuse the "mutual delusion" of comfort and stagnation - and get uncomfortable, quickly!
Don't let the weight of today’s challenges blind you to tomorrow’s potential.
Always keep in mind the present is a fact, but the future is a choice.
Burn this into your mind -> Stop managing "what is"; start creating "what could be."

Futurist Jim Carroll believes you should read his MBI Manifesto today.

🌍 “#Reality is innocent—it is our #concepts that are guilty.” 📖
In a new #guestarticle, #BerndStein proposes an #epistemologicalshift in #perspective:
👉 It is not #properties that are fundamental, but #possibilities of #description.
👉 The #mathematics of #quantum theory does not say what the #world is like, but under what #conditions it can be determined
💬 Contradictions welcome at: https://philosophies.de/index.php/2025/12/20/die-realitaet-ist-unschuldig/

#Tesseract was originally developed at #HewlettPackard Laboratories #Bristol #UK and at Hewlett-Packard Co, #Greeley Colorado USA between 1985 and 1994, with some more changes made in 1996 to port to Windows, and some C++izing in 1998. In 2005 Tesseract was open sourced by HP. From 2006 until November 2018 it was developed by #Google.
Major version 5 is the current stable version and started with release 5.0.0 on November 30, 2021. Newer minor versions and bugfix versions are available from GitHub.
To me, this is the type of thing a #Newb #programmer might or should investigate. That thing has been around for longer than you've been alive. And I was about ten years old when they came up with it.
How about them apples?

Dear Friends of somehow, :ablobcatbongokeyboard:
As we may #know,
- It becomes what we are [includes the #fediverse]
- Manually read the #manual [explains? or you already know?]
- What you think, you R [not X]
In other words a #life of #ease only exists in advertising, propaganda and #fantasy #ideals. In #Buddhism this is called #Sukah [yep #homophone of sucker!] :ablobcatpopcorn:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sukha
So where do we enhance our #positive, when #ideals are dying, dead or hard to find? I might #suggest:
- Brain reboot [daily preferably] :gi:
- Sheep, lemmings, flocks and tribes are not the way 😮
- Thank the... the... everything, everywhere all at 1's :ablobcatgoogly:
The answers are always #present. #Always #staring us in the #possibilities and #potential. Some wounded beyond repair, despair. They reach out. We help. We help our selves.
Hope these clues are helpful. ❤️

Dear Friends of bone gnawing, 😮
Yep, I bin sucking the #marrow outa vegan chicken bones. #Animal Liberation Front are probably affronted ... :ablobcatcoffee:
but then someone is always being confronted by their or the flaws of others ... it is just the rich #tapestry of life and death that we all drift through as best we can, as you may know. :ablobcatgoogly:
However, I have found some #GNU/new #allies. I have stashed them in the #future under the label 'Do not eat!'. My new allies are all so extremely talented, in so many ways, that I would be mad or a wer-lobster to eat them. Fortunately, as you may be awer, I am half Neo-Homo-Sentient. This is my #server grace ... eh serving grace #instance. I iz doing an instance. I iz I iz. Iz you?
Just imagine: 🦞
- A B-army of rejects, #talented maniacs and #assorted Mx #minds ready for #Nothing, #Anything and all #possibilities.
❤️ We #win. #Always. #No-plan to speak of. No #direction to move from or 2. We are the #Luvvies. We come with our own #trees, #flowers and unique #Being ... ❤️ -
#HarryBenjamin and the #Evolution of #Transgender #Healthcare.
Starting his #medical #career with a #focus on #geriatrics, he quickly developed an #interest in the #therapeutic #possibilities of #endocrine #glands. His #groundbreaking #book ‘#TheTranssexualPhenomenon‘ remains a significant #reference in the #field.

"Even those who care deeply for us cannot always see our big picture, the Grand Story Line that is destined to unfold before us. They are on their own journeys. And though their paths may run parallel to ours, each is singular in its curves and mileposts, unique in its destination." — Cicely Tyson — — — #CicelyTyson #quote #destiny #future #possibilities #journey #destination #mileposts #caring #unique
