"Never trade your future reputation for a short-term paycheck" - Futurist Jim Carroll
--
Futurist Jim Carroll is writing a series, The Art of the Infinite Pivot, based on 36 lessons from his 36 years as a solo entrepreneur, working as a nomadic worker in the global freelance economy. The series is unfolding here, and at pivot.jimcarroll.com.
--When you are working on your own, you are tempted to chase every single opportunity - but often,you should question if you should.
Think about it - in the global freelance economy, the temptation is to be a mercenary. To chase the quick win, the easy gig, or the trendy buzzword that pays today but disappears tomorrow. But in my 36-year voyage, I’ve learned that the Infinite Pivot is only possible if you plan to make sure your reputation is one of your most important assets.
In my career, I’ve walked away from lucrative opportunities because they didn't align with what I thought I should be doing. I’ve turned down gigs that would have compromised my voice for a short-term gain - those that were from obvious hustlers promoting conferences or events that seemed rather shady or dubious. Why? Because when the world shifts—and it always does—your only real security is the integrity of your long-term perspective.
A few weeks ago, I turned down an inquiry from a tobacco company. A few years back, I told a client I wouldn't take on the topic they wanted around cryptocurrency because I thought they were pretty unrealistic with what they wanted me to promise. (I turned out to be right.) I've passed on certain healthcare events where the topic bordered on fraud. Beyond that, I feel pretty confident to say that I can easily discern a hustler as soon as they start talking with me or send an email. It's an invaluable skill.
Short-termism is a trap. It makes you a slave to the current market cycle, or being associated with things you shouldn't be associated with.
Most profound pivots don't happen in a vacuum; they happen because you’ve spent 30 years building a foundation of trust. People don't just listen to me because of the data; they listen because I’ve been consistently right about the direction of the curve for three and a half decades. That kind of authority can't be bought; it can only be built, stone by stone.
When you build for the long term, the short-term disruptions become minor weather events rather than catastrophic storms.

Short term thinking alone can have devastating results without including long term planning. They need to go hand in hand for an optimal outcome. #shortterm #longterm #planning #risk #results

A quotation from Hyman Rickover
A preoccupation with the so-called bottom line of profit and loss statements, coupled with a lust for expansion, is creating an environment in which fewer businessmen honor traditional values; where responsibility is increasingly disassociated from the exercise of power; where skill in financial manipulation is valued more than actual knowledge and experience in the business; where attention and effort is directed mostly to short-term considerations, regardless of longer range consequences.

A quotation from Teddy Roosevelt
It is not possible to lay down an inflexible rule as to when compromise is right and when wrong; when it is a sign of the highest statesmanship to temporize, and when it is merely a proof of weakness. Now and then one can stand uncompromisingly for a naked principle and force people up to it. This is always the attractive course; but in certain great crises it may be a very wrong course. Compromise, in the proper sense, merely means agreement; in the proper sense opportunism should merely mean doing the best possible with actual conditions as they exist.
A compromise which results in a half-step toward evil is all wrong, just as the opportunist who saves himself for the moment by adopting a policy which is fraught with future disaster is all wrong; but no less wrong is the attitude of those who will not come to an agreement through which, or will not follow the course by which, it is alone possible to accomplish practical results for good.Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919) American politician, statesman, conservationist, writer, US President (1901-1909)
Essay (1900-06), “Latitude and Longitude Among Reformers,” The Century Magazine, Vol. 60, No. 2Sourcing, notes: wist.info/roosevelt-theodore/1…

In recent years the shine of #DesignThinking has been wearing off. Critics have argued that its #ShortTerm focus on novel and naive #ideas has resulted in unrealistic and ungrounded recommendations. It has reinforced existing #inequities rather than challenging them. Years in #InnovationTheater — checking a series of boxes without implementing meaningful shifts—had become endemic in corporate settings.
