The Difference And Delta

The effect multiplier is created when 2 elements produce a delta (effective difference) than each alone.

Whether it be in work or life, within a micro-community or a nation-wide scale, there are deltas awaiting for us to mine on and there are always un-realized potentials awaiting for us to manifest. Every time a delta is delivered, progress happens. Imagine if we compound those deltas, civilization will move forward. Every delta brings a new dimension of possibilities.

Delight and thrive in ambiguity and take proactive initiative. You really have to start something, else you may not be able to ‘see’. To be ‘able to see’ makes a grand difference. If you aim at that 100%, but manage to just gather 10%, even with that, when you look back at 0%, you are free from a certain painful inertia. It makes a difference. All you have to do is to just — start — from somewhere — and start now.

0. Start with understanding. Start with empathetic questions to understand the unspoken needs and desires:

* What are the difficulties you are currently facing?
* If given the resources, what are the top 2 you would want with immediacy?

Be obsessed to create the delta and to deliver the significance.

1. Create the delta:

How do you grow a solution? One feature at a time.
How do you grow a business? One service demand by revenue at a time.

Develop tools and means in terms of network and strategic analysis and methods of extracting information.

2. Examine the difference you delivered:

2.1. What change is the solution, service or business bringing?
2.2. What is the significance of the change?

3. Take responsibility for both successes and failures.

1. Set Yourself Started and Going
2. Fail Fast, Fail Functionally, Fail Forward
3. Transformative Shifts — The 1% Fulcrum on the 20–80% Pareto
