Get ready for the reality that the distance between ‘imagination’ and ‘reality’ is collapsing
We are on Day 25. We are one day away from the finish line!
Today, you need to think about speed, velocity, and acceleration.
Yes, I've covered a lot about the issue of speed (Day 1) and scale (Day 16). However, before we conclude this series, it is essential to understand the actual physics, science, and technology behind the phenomena unfolding in our exponential world.
Here's the core issue: for the vast majority of human history, the relationship between your imagination and the realization of what you could achieve was governed by the "friction" of the physical world. It took time to do things. If a civilization wanted to build a cathedral, it measured the project in centuries. If a pharmaceutical company sought to cure a disease, it measured the timeline in decades.
Time was the constant barrier to progress, something that was not easily broken. In that way, you could think of it as a tax levied on progress.,
In 2025, that tax was repealed.
We have entered the era of the "Collapse of Time."
The old "operating system" that has governed progress, where step B had to patiently wait for step A to finish before it could move forward, is being overwritten by an exponential new world in which many things happen all at once.
This is not just a theoretical idea - over the last 24 months, we have witnessed the compression of timelines across every sector.
Here's why.
If we look back at what happened over the last two years, with the arrival of AI and the maturing of many other trends, the issue of acceleration is everywhere.
Keep reading!

The 1987 editorial "Tomorrow's Company Won't Have Walls" stands as one of the most accurate corporate prophecies of the modern era.
And it had a profound impact on my life.
It's probably fair to say that if I hadn't read it, I wouldn't have stepped out on my own to start my own company, chase my own career, do my own thing - and become a global freelancer, a nomadic worker, a lone wolf, long before the trend became real and the idea fashionable. Like I've said - I haven't had a job for 35 years, and I work really hard to not have to get a job!
It's worth reading, because it predicted with precision the modern organization of today.
Think about where we are now: many organizations don't define themselves by the depth of their staff - they do so by the reach of their skills network.
But in 2026 and beyond, the sophisticated reach of a networked organization is not enough.
It's no longer about the reach of your skills network, but also the speed with which they operate.
If they aren't as fast as you, it will slow you down even further, stunt your progress, and ruin your ability to align with exponential trends.
That's why, in 2026 and beyond, you have to stop letting slow partners kill your speed.
The Issue of Network Velocity
We are on Day 20. We have built your internal engine: You have the Unapologetic Uniqueness (Day 17), an Antifragile Mindset (Day 18), and Optionality Architecture (Day 19).
Do those things, and you are getting ready for our exponential world.
But as they say, "but wait, there's more!" Now, we must look outside.
You can have a Ferrari engine (your mindset), but if you are driving in a convoy of tractors (your partners), you are going to move at the speed of a tractor!
And here's the thing about what this means to the networked organization, and perhaps your role in it as a freelancer: in a linear world, we picked partners based on stability, history, and comfort. We stuck with the vendor we’d used for 20 years because "they know us."
In an exponential world, loyalty to the past is a guarantee for failure. If your supply chain, your technology vendors, or your peer group are evolving linearly while the market accelerates exponentially, they aren't just slowing you down.
They are anchors.
This means that another discipline you must master going forward is Network Velocity.
Learn why.

When exponential change arrives, it never goes well.
That's because most people fail to understand what it means and don't act, which is a problem. After all, there is a remarkably narrow window between "this will never work" and "how did we miss this?"
We are on Day 16. Earlier in this series (go back to Day 2), we confronted the staggering velocity of change—the doubling of scientific knowledge, the acceleration of technological breakthroughs.
But there is a massive, invisible chasm we have not yet crossed:
It is the gap between intellectually knowing the numbers and viscerally comprehending what they mean for your reality in 36 months. It's called the scale-blindness epidemic, and why your brain cannot comprehend what is coming.
Consider this: you can read the reports on AI growth, computing power, or synthetic biology until your eyes bleed. You can nod your head and agree that things are moving fast.
But deep down, you don't believe it.
Why? Because you are a human being. We are linearly wired creatures living in an exponential world. Our brains evolved to track linear threats—a lion moving across the savannah at a constant speed. We understand “1, 2, 3, 4, 5.” Slow, linear growth.
But it seems we are biologically incapable of intuitively grasping “1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32.” Wildly fast exponential growth.
Because of this evolutionary flaw, the vast majority of leaders suffer from "Scale-Blindness." When we look at an emerging exponential technology, our brains instinctively project its growth linearly. We do a 1-2-3-4-5 - not a 1-2-4-8-16-32. We look at what it can do today—which is usually underwhelming—and assume next year it will be maybe 10% better. And the fact is, it could be 100% better, or 1,000%, or maybe even 10,000%
And because of our blindness, we fail to miss out on the significance of the trend.
Think about it another way - if we see a 10-foot wave coming and prepare accordingly, completely blind to the fact that the exponential function will turn it into a 100-foot tsunami by the time it reaches shore.
That's why principle **#16** in this series isn't about learning more facts; it's about forcing your brain to undergo a sort of exponential shock therapy so you can cure this blindness before it's too late. That's because there is comfort in incremental thinking!

Get rid of the anchors that are keeping you back. The weights that are holding you down. The chains that bind you to yesterday. The barriers that block your way.
And the things that are slowing you down.
We are on Day 11. You've committed to connecting externally for speed (Day 10). Now you must look inside and confront the greatest enemy of internal velocity: complexity.
Your future depends on the idea of Radical Subtraction. It might not make sense, but to move faster in our exponential world, you need to stop adding things and take things away.
In our old, slow, linear world, we solved problems by adding. If there was a risk, we added a compliance step. If there was miscommunication, we added a meeting to fix it. If there was a new opportunity, we added a committee. If there were a disruption, we would develop a strategy to deal with it. Over time, this addition was seen as sophistication and control.
We added things to try to deal with the complexity the world was throwing at us.
But here's the thing - in an exponential world, this accumulated complexity is organizational cholesterol. It clogs the arteries of decision-making. Every extra approval layer, every redundant report, and every "alignment meeting" slows down your Execution Velocity (Day 8) and makes it impossible to achieve a Moonshot (Day 9).
I've long talked about this from the stage as the accumulation of 'organizational sclerosis.'
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVgslECVwKw&t=2s
It's clogging up your future, slowing you down, killing your initiative. What is it? It's the condition where your arteries of creativity and initiative become clogged because everyone keeps doing things - even though no one remembers why they are doing them. It’s not just annoying; it’s a health hazard for your business that blocks the flow of new ideas.
And here's the thing - you cannot add your way to agility. When the world speeds up, your internal systems must simplify.
Here's why...

Futurist Jim Carroll has long been intensely frustrated with bureaucracy and organizational sclerosis - with that, perhaps, being the reason why he has worked as a solo entrepreneur for 35 years!

Je me suis remis au vélo récemment...
Je constate que la majorité des pistes cyclables semblent avoir été placées généralement au détriment des piétons et des transports en communs.
En Île de France, j'ai l'impression que nombreuses pistes ont été peintes de ci de là sans réelle réflexion autre que de ne pas trop gêner les voitures.

"Stop judging the speed of your future by the slow pace of your past." - Futurist Jim Carroll
26 Principles to Master Exponential Growth in 2026 - **#1** Temporal Literacy
It's Day 1 of your new path for 2026! 26 days, 26 principles to get you into the exponential mindset.
Step 1? Master "Temporal Literacy" - in which you stop judging the speed of your future by the slow pace of your past!
The single biggest mistake you can make right now is to believe that you can just keep doing the same old things at the same old deliberate pace that worked for you yesterday.
You can't.
Think about it - your past career success, your accumulated knowledge, and your daily routine have all been built on a 'linear' world - one that involves a slow, steady and expected rate of change. That's gone. The world is accelerating exponentially, creating a massive Temporal Lag between the speed you move and the speed the world demands.
Alvin Toffler called it "Future Shock." You are in the middle of that right now.
Here's what you need to do ....read the full list for insight.
Keep reading.....

"The rate of change outside your control must be met by a greater rate of learning inside your mind!" - Futurist Jim Carroll
Most people don't realise what is happening with the exponentiation of trends. And yet, it is and will continue to have a p[profound impact on them. That's why I'm writing this new 2026 series, launching tomorrow.
It's best to put this into perspective in the context of the reality of trends today.
A year ago this month, I was invited by the Office of the Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates to address the annual AGM of the region - a room full of 700 cabinet ministers and government executives. We spent a lot of time polishing my slide deck, and here are a few key slides. (Forgive the small type - these were prepared for a really big room with a really big LED screen!)
The first had to do with what I call 'the era of acceleration.'
Consider these numbers:
- Amazon Robots: from 1,000 (2012) to 75,000 ↑ Significant Increase (Volume)
- Cost of Human Genome Sequencing: from $100 million (2001) to $200 ↓ Massive Cost Reduction
- Solar Energy: $76 per watt (1977) to $0.20 ↓ Cost Reduction
- 3D Printing: $50 per cm³ (2010) to $0.50 ↓ Cost Reduction
- Battery Storage: $1,100 per kWh (2010) to <$100 ↓ Cost Reduction
- AI Inference Cost, $20.00 / Million Tokens (Nov 2022) to $0.07 / Million Tokens (Oct 2024)
- Access to Space (Low Earth Orbit): $54,500 per kg (Space Shuttle Era) to $2,720 per kg (Falcon 9)
- IoT Capacity (5G), 4G: 100,000 devices per km² to 5G: 1,000,000 devices per km²
- General knowledge doubling : 100 Years (Until 1900) to 12 Hours (Projected 2020)
- Medical knowledge doubling time, 50 Years in 1950 to 73 Days in 2020
- Professional skills relevance: from 30 years historically to a half-life of 6 years today
What' the impact? Skills obsolescence, opportunity blindness, and the drag of legacy!
Starting tomorrow, I'll be taking you on the first principle of adaptation: Temporal Literacy. This is the foundational skill for every futurist, leader, and individual aiming for reinvention. It's the ability to stop judging the future by the slow pace of the past.
Get ready to reset your internal clock!
