Reference: Data Series 15—WRONG TARGET

.

WRONG TARGET

There is an additional specific out-point of WRONG TARGET. This means in effect 

AN INCORRECT SELECTION OF AN OBJECTIVE TO ATTEMPT OR ATTACK. 

This out-point contains the element, amongst other things of injustice. 

Example: The Multi-billion dollar drug cartels push out 65 tons of habit forming hard drugs. A government campaigns against cigarettes. 

It is noted that the very insane often attack anyone who seeks to help them. 

This out-point is very fundamental as an illogic and is very useful.

Reference: Data Series 14—WORKING AND MANAGING

.

WORKING AND MANAGING

By actual experience, the most dangerous worker-manager thing to do is to work or manage from something else than statistics. Man’s largest and most unjust fault consists wholly of acting on opinion. When one says “opinion” one is dealing with that morass of false reports and prejudices which make up the chaos of current social orders. 

Thus this whole field of “opinion” and “reports” is a quicksand endangering both personal repute and management skill. 

In a chaos it is necessary to set up one point or terminal which is stable before one can really decide anything much less get anything done. 

A statistic is such a stable point. One can proceed from it and use it to the degree that it is a correct statistic. One can detect then, when things start to go wrong well before they crash. 

.

PREDICTION

The whole reason one does a Data Analysis and a Situation Analysis is to predict. 

The biggest out-point would be a missing Ideal Scene, the next biggest would be a correct statistic for it. If these are missing then prediction can become a matter of telling fortunes with bamboo sticks. 

One predicts in order to continue the viability of an organism, an individual, a group, an organization, a state or nation or planet, or to estimate the future of anything. 

The closer one approaches a disaster the more out-points will turn up. Thus the more out-points that turn up the closer one is approaching a disaster. By being able to predict, the organism or individual or group can correct the out-points before disaster occurs.

DS 13 Summary

Reference: Data Series 13—IRRATIONALITY

.

IRRATIONALITY

Any and all irrationality is connected to departures from an Ideal Scene. Therefore out-points indicate departures. It must follow then that Rationality is connected to an Ideal Scene. These three assumptions should be studied, observed and fully grasped.

If these assumptions are true then one has not only the definition of sanity in an organization or individual but also of neurosis and psychosis. One also sees that any Third Dynamic activity can be neurotic or psychotic. It therefore would follow that the technology of the Ideal Scene, Existing Scene, departures, out-points and statistics would have the means of establishing sane groups or individuals or measuring and re-establishing relative sanity in them. 

.

THE PLAGUE OF MAN

The irrationality in individual and group conduct is accepted as “inevitable” by most people. They toss off such irrationality with a “that’s life”. This is because the departure from any ideal is so distant as to obscure any feeling of reality about possibly achieving an Ideal Scene even in a limited area. This is of course an overwhelmed attitude. 

Man’s primary plague is irrationality. He is not in the grip of a “death wish”, nor is he having a love affair with destruction. He has just lacked any road out or the technology to put him on it. 

.

RESOLVING THE SCENE

By the steps mentioned in the Data Series, big situations can be analyzed as well as little ones. The thing to do in all cases is to work out the Ideal Scene, survey the existing scene for out-points, work out statistics that should exist, find out WHY the departure, program a gradient solution back to the ideal, settle the practical aspects of it and go about it. 

.

LOSING ONE’S WAY

One’s direction is lost to the degree one fails to work out the Ideal Scene. It is so easy to toss off an “ideal scene” that is not the Ideal Scene that one can begin with a false premise. Failures to examine the scene, reasonableness which causes blindness to the obvious, errors of penetration and defensive reasons not to admit it all impede a proper analysis. 

.

BUILDING THE IDEAL SCENE 

To suppose one can instantly hit upon an Ideal Scene for any activity without further test is to be very fond of one’s own prejudices. There is however a test of whether you have the Ideal Scene or not. Can you staticize it? 

There seems to be a ratio between producing and consuming and it favors, apparently, higher production of something than consumption. When it gets too unbalanced in values, something seems to happen. An Ideal Scene apparently has to have a statistic or the whole thing caves in.

.

IDEAL SCENE AND STAT

Whatever the facts and economic rules may be about production and the Ideal Scene, it would seem to be the case, sufficient at least for our purposes, that this rule holds good: 

THE CORRECTLY STATED IDEAL SCENE WILL HAVE A PRODUCTION STATISTIC. 

A stat is a positive numerical thing that can be accurately counted and graphed on a two dimensional thing. It is a tight reality, a stable point, which is to measure any departure from the Ideal Scene. 

One can go back and forth between the statistic and the stated Ideal Scene, adjusting one, then the other until one gets an attainable statistic that really does measure the validity of the stated Ideal Scene. 

[NOTE: Read the original for an excellent example of working out the Ideal Scene and Statistics for a shoe store.]

.

VIABLE

The word “viable” means capable of living, able to live in a particular climate or atmosphere. This is true of any Ideal Scene. The Statistic measures directly the relative survival potential of the organism or its part. 

In practice one works back from the Ideal Scene of the group into its smallest part, so that all lesser Ideal Scenes and lesser statistics mount up to and bring about the main Ideal Scene and statistic. 

After that one can have better dependence upon them and keep the statistics up and the purpose going forward.

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

  1. Observe the decline.
  2. Locate the exact change which had been made.
  3. Revert THE change.
  4. 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 closure 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.

DS 11 Summary

July 18, 2022 – 7:42 PM

Reference: Data Series

Reference: Data Series 11—THE SITUATION

.

THE SITUATION

Probably the hardest meaning to get across is the definition of “SITUATION”. One can say variously “Isolate the actual situation” or “Work out what the situation is” and get the most remarkable results. We can define for our purposes in this data series the word SITUATION as follows.

A SITUATION IS A MAJOR DEPARTURE FROM THE IDEAL SCENE.

This means a wide and significant or dangerous or potentially damaging CIRCUMSTANCE or STATE OF AFFAIRS which means that the IDEAL SCENE has been departed from and doesn’t fully exist in that area.

One has to work out or know what the Ideal Scene would be for an organization or department or social strata or an activity to know that a wide big flaw existed in it. We would then realize that a SITUATION existed because Data Analysis is also done against the Ideal Scene. We would know enough about it to look more closely to realize the situation.

Thus, if one were responsible for the area one would now know what to handle. How he handled it depends upon (a) the need, (b) availability of resources and (c) capability.

.

HOW TO FIND A SITUATION

When you are called upon to find out if there IS a situation you can follow these steps and arrive with what the situation is every time.

  1. Observe.
  2. Notice an oddity of any kind or none.
  3. Establish what the Ideal Scene would be for what is observed.
  4. Count the out-points now visible.
  5. Following up the out-points observe more closely.
  6. Establish even more simply what the Ideal Scene would be.
  7. The situation will be THE MOST MAJOR DEPARTURE FROM THE IDEAL SCENE.

.

HANDLING 

Just as you proceed to the MOST MAJOR SITUATION—go big, when it comes to handling it usually occurs that reverse is true—go small!

When you really see a SITUATION it is often so big and so appalling one can feel incapable. It is seldom you can handle it all at one bang. The need to handle comes first. The resources available come next. The capability comes third. Estimate these and by getting a very bright workable (often very simple) idea. one can make a start.

.

INTERFERENCE

The only danger is that the situation can be so far from any ideal that others with fixed ideas and madness can defy the most accurate and sensible solutions.

But that’s part of the situation, isn’t it?
