And here's what I know. ๐—ฌ๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ณ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—ฏ๐—น๐—ฒ๐—บ๐˜€.

Most organizations fail. Not because they want to, but because they continue to let mediocre behaviors rule their culture.
That's the insight that inspired my two latest books, each tackling innovation and growth from a unique angle.

The first book, "๐—˜๐—บ๐—ฏ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐— ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ฐ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐˜๐˜†: ๐—›๐—ผ๐˜„ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐——๐—ผ ๐—ก๐—ผ๐˜๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ก๐—ผ๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ฏ๐—น๐—ฒ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—”๐—ฐ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฝ๐—น๐—ถ๐˜€๐—ต ๐—ฎ๐˜€ ๐—Ÿ๐—ถ๐˜๐˜๐—น๐—ฒ ๐—ฎ๐˜€ ๐—ฃ๐—ผ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ฏ๐—น๐—ฒ," is not your typical leadership manual. Instead, I wrote it as a playful, satirical mirror held up to reveal the subtle yet pervasive ways teams unknowingly settle for less. Over the years, I've noticed how easy it is for organizations to drift into habits that quietly sabotage their potential, keeping them comfortably but frustratingly average. This book vividly highlights these self-defeating behaviors, enabling you to recognize and steer clear of them.

I dare you to share it with your team, and ask them to identify the behaviors they admit to being guilty of.

Then comes its companion, "๐˜Œ๐˜ด๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ฑ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜”๐˜ฆ๐˜ฅ๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ค๐˜ณ๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜บ: ๐˜๐˜ฐ๐˜ธ ๐˜ต๐˜ฐ ๐˜ˆ๐˜ค๐˜ค๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ฆ ๐˜ ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ ๐˜๐˜ถ๐˜ต๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ˆ๐˜ค๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ฆ๐˜ท๐˜ฆ ๐˜‰๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ฌ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜จ๐˜ฉ ๐˜™๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ต๐˜ด!" It directly addresses the mindset shifts and practical actions required to break free from those ingrained patterns. It urges you to push beyond your comfort zones, chase bold thinking, embrace calculated risks, and pursue genuine excellence.

๐˜“๐˜ฐ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฌ, ๐˜ฆ๐˜น๐˜ฑ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ช๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ค๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ด ๐˜ด๐˜ฉ๐˜ฐ๐˜ธ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ฅ๐˜ญ๐˜บ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ต ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ญ ๐˜ฅ๐˜ช๐˜ง๐˜ง๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ค๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ต๐˜ธ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฅ๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ค๐˜ณ๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜บ ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜จ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ฏ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ด ๐˜ช๐˜ด ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ด ๐˜ข๐˜ฃ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ต ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต ๐˜ต๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ข๐˜ฃ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ต ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜จ๐˜ฆ, ๐˜ฎ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ต, ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ฃ๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜ด ๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ฎ๐˜ด ๐˜ค๐˜ฉ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฐ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ ๐˜ต๐˜ฐ ๐˜ข๐˜ฅ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฑ๐˜ต.

Together, these books offer a powerful combination. "๐™€๐™ข๐™—๐™ง๐™–๐™˜๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™ˆ๐™š๐™™๐™ž๐™ค๐™˜๐™ง๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™ฎ" helps pinpoint and understand the hidden reasons teams stall, while "๐™€๐™จ๐™˜๐™–๐™ฅ๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™ˆ๐™š๐™™๐™ž๐™ค๐™˜๐™ง๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™ฎ" equips you with strategies and inspiration to overcome these barriers and thrive. I've consistently witnessed that the path to excellence, though challenging, is infinitely more rewarding than settling for less.

Ready to elevate your team's critical thinking, challenge the status quo, and spark meaningful innovation? These books are your starting point.

They're both on Amazon now, and available directly from me.

โ€ข Are we building the assets and mitigating the profound risks for that future entity with the same diligence we apply to our own personal 'Future Self'?

Itโ€™s a challenging mandate, but a vital one. What "eliminatory conditions" are you championing today to ensure the success and resilience of your team's or organization's "Future Self"?

The global health OS is updating: China boosts WHO with $500M as US involvement shifts. Despite some static from RFK Jr., a landmark pandemic treaty just got a massive YES from 124 nations.

US Leaves WHO, RFK Jr. Slams Agency; China Gives $500M.

Your future self is your most important teammate.

Todayโ€™s shortcuts are tomorrowโ€™s blockers.
Write code your future self will thank you for.

โœ… Leave meaningful comments
โœ… Name things with intention
โœ… Avoid โ€œjust for nowโ€ hacks
โœ… Document decisions and reasons

Code ages โ€” make it age gracefully.

It's not just about cost, there's also keeping historical records. How many public institutions are now relying on proprietary, closed source cloud systems?

Even if they have local backups of the data, without the code, the information will be unreadable in the future.

We owe the future generations of historians a trove of data that was created and kept on open source, self-hosted systems.

#whatIf agriculture products would be purchased in a way that there would be incentive not to maximize crop but keep it on a sustainable level (taking account the area and environment ofc).

Capping the purchased crop to a certain level would remove the exploitation of soil which keeps the soil good for growing food for a much longer time.

Today, amongst other things, I'm going to have to think about and prepare for migrating off AWS and somewhere else, likely within the UK.

I could be optimistic and pretend that the UK and EU remain in sufficient equilibrium over data but perhaps I shouldn't.

Operationally, I probably only have to have an alternative to DescribeInstances, Fabric2 does the work.

Within the system the big piece is SQS/SNS, and there needs to be an S3 like store.

AI drives workforce innovation, not human obsolescence. It boosts decision-making, a spot Bornet misses. AI makes education and resources more accessible. With learning and reskilling, can we enhance our potential?

As @jomc discusses in this article, Bluesky is not decentralized (at least not yet).

Mastodon is today.

That is why I have been more focused on things here where I have more control of my data, social graph and it is more resistant to single-owner problems.

It's somewhat surprising that #Elektron mk2 Digitakt and Digitone instruments do not have #USBC #port. Or at least USB-B-to-C #converter cable provided in a box. Probably USB-C is not so prevalent yet but these devices will last for a long time. I would guess updating a connector port would be good for #futureproofing the device. It's not even possible to purchase the converter cable from Elektron, but there are third-party converter cables available, for example UDG sells one with good reviews.
