Reference: Data Series 12—HOW TO FIND AND ESTABLISH AN IDEAL SCENE

HOW TO FIND AND ESTABLISH AN IDEAL SCENE
In order to detect, handle or remedy situations one has to be able to understand and work out the Ideal Scene, detect without error or guess any departure on it, find out WHY a departure occurred and work out a means of reverting back to the Ideal Scene.
“Change” is the root of departures. The challenge is to isolate THE change that caused the major departure. When this change is reverted a full recovery is obtained.
The action is always
- Observe the decline.
- Locate the exact change which had been made.
- Revert THE change.
- A return to the near ideal scene would occur if one were maintaining the ideal scene meanwhile.

THE IDEAL SCENE
There are two scenes:
A. The Ideal Scene.
B. The Existing Scene.
These of course can be wide apart. At first thought it would be very difficult for a person not an expert to know the ideal scene. But, it can be visualized and stated very simply.
HOWEVER, THE IDEAL SCENE CAN BE PUT SO FAR FROM REACH THAT IT APPEARS INCREDIBLE.
The gap between the Ideal Scene and the Existing Scene can be very wide, and in any endeavor elements exist that tend to prevent a total closer between the two. However, approached on a gradient with skill and determination it can be done.
.
DEPARTURE
That something, real or imagined, is wrong with the scene is a not uncommon state of mind. Seeing something wrong without seeking to correct it degenerates into mere fault finding and natter. This is about as far as many people go.
Not knowing what’s intended or being done, or the limitations of resource or the magnitude and complexity of opposition, the armchair critic can be dreadfully unreal. Violent revolution comes about when the actual Ideal Scene has not been properly stated and when it excludes significant parts of the group.
It is really not enough to natter and it’s rather too much to thrust violent change down on the heads of one and all including the objectors. What is needed in such a case is an awareness of departure from the Ideal Scene, the discovery of WHY a departure occurred and a gradient, real and determined program to return the scene closer to the Ideal.
.
IDEAL SCENE AND PURPOSE
One doesn’t have to be much of an expert to see what an Ideal Scene would be. The entire concept of an Ideal Scene for any activity is really a clean statement of its PURPOSE.
One has to work out fairly correctly what the purpose of an activity is and how long it is to endure before one can make a statement of the Ideal Scene. For example, the Ideal Scene of a shoe shop may be stated as, “This activity is intended to provide people with shoes for its owner’s lifetime.”
From this one can work out the complexities which compose the activity in order to establish it; and also how to spot the fact of departure from the Ideal Scene.
.
METHODS OF AWARENESS
Statistics are the only sound measure of any production or any job or any activity. Probably the most thoughtful exercise is not conceiving the ideal scene but working out what the production statistic of it is. For here, the activity must be very correctly staticized to exactly measure the Ideal Scene.
The sole fixation on making money can depart from the scene of the shoe store. Abandonment of making any money would certainly cause a departure of the shoe store.
.
WHY
Knowing, then, the Ideal Scene and its statistic one can notice an immediate departure from the Ideal Scene due to drop in statistics. Now that a departure is seen one can quickly go about noticing when and so get at WHY. When he has the WHY of the departure he can proceed to handle it.
It is not possible to locate WHY the departure soon enough to remedy unless one takes the most reliable datum available—which is the datum most easily kept clean of out-points—which is a statistic.
You don’t really even know there is a why unless there has been a departure. And the departure may be very hard to spot without a statistic. If an activity lacks an Ideal Scene and a correct statistic for it, it has no stable datum with which to rebuff opinion and out-points. To that extent the group goes a bit mad.
