Q) Did you coin ‘followship’? It’s not a word, but it’s perfectly understandable!

A) When I was in the military, I learned to be in the shoes of those taking orders before I was in a position to understand what I was saying meant to those under me later, when I would give orders.

I don’t take credit for coining the non-word, but I realized those who ‘lead’ from Ivory Towers are not always leading, but are pridefully bellowing. Real leaders are such because they DID the trenches, they are MORE than willing to be in the trenches themselves, and often ARE. They care about their people, and they understand the who, what, when, where, why, and how of what is being asked of them, because they have walked a mile in those moccasins themselves.

Christ did all of that, and more, for each person of humanity. Learn from that.

Q) You say that the Wonderment of life leads to power. Elaborate?

A) Whenever we make choices in life, there are underlying issues supporting the value of the effects from the choices. It’s only through careful questioning, about probing the assumptions, and digging into the substances underneath the forms, that we begin to understand better what is truly before our eyes.

Almost every aspect of a situation has a who, a what, a when, a where, a why, and a how associated with it. More complex situations have an overlay of a lot of them. Sometimes, it just takes being methodical. Note the inflection change on the following sentences as you read them aloud:

Aloud!

THE red fox jumped over the brown dog.
The RED fox jumped over the brown dog.
The red FOX jumped over the brown dog.
The red fox JUMPED over the brown dog.
The red fox jumped OVER the brown dog.
The red fox jumped over THE brown dog.
The red fox jumped over the BROWN dog.
The red fox jumped over the brown DOG.

Did you feel the difference in the sentences? Did you notice just the inflection change made each sentence sound different from the others? Digging into the facts about each aspect of choices, thinking aloud even, can change one’s perspective!

Ask! WHO? WHAT? WHEN? WHERE? WHY? HOW?

Suppose you have a situation, with two aspects, A and B. Think through them.

First, consider A and B separately.

WHO is involved with aspect A? WHO is involved with aspect B?
WHAT is involved with aspect A? WHAT is involved with aspect B?
WHEN is time influencing aspect A? WHEN is time influencing aspect B? 
WHERE is aspect A occurring? WHERE is aspect B occurring?
WHY is aspect A the way it is? WHY is aspect B the way it is?

Then, consider them together.

WHO is combining aspects A and B?
WHAT is the worst, or best result of combining aspects A and B?
WHEN is the worst, or best time for aspects A and B to be combined?
WHERE is the worst, or best place for aspects A and B to be combined?
WHY should aspects A be or not be combined with B?
HOW should aspects A be or not be combined with B?

In other words, one must be willing to crave understanding to put forth the personal effort to think through each aspect, and the combination, across the who, what, when, where, why, and how of life. It takes concentration, diligence, patience, and thoughtfulness. However, the better a person becomes at this exercise, the more they see compared to how much they would see if they didn’t focus as thoroughly.

It doesn’t matter if A is junior, B is the family car, and the combination is borrowing for the prom. Understanding the well considered who, what, when, where, why, and how is better than making a decision based on fluffy thinking.

The better we ’see’, the more there is to appreciate. There is beauty to be found in knowing more, and understanding clearly. It takes effort to ask questions, but the answers are worth more than gold. Insight allows us to see past that which we normally take for granted and don’t see, and in so seeing, renders power to choose better. Insight allows us to see past that which others see, and in so seeing, renders power to choose better. The better we see, the more we help ourselves, and others, for God’s glory.

Q) The statement about always looking for triple returns for each action is interesting. Where did that come from, and how can I use it?

A) It came from when I began learning to play better chess. I started about age 8, but became more intensely interested in High School. Commonly, my fellow chess players would move each piece to accomplish one thing, and so did I. But I started to note a trend.

I learned that if I could move one piece and accomplish two things at once, all of a sudden I was winning more due to efficiency. Once I got that, I started to look for triples. For instance, was there a piece I could move which would attack something fresh, AND defend something of mine, AND lead to more squares on the board dominated by me than the opponent … ALL at once? There are a handful of times when that can happen per game, but one has to see the opportunities else they pass unused. Enough of them, one wins faster, easier, better.

Personal Example:

From a practical point of view, I once needed to make a job change. I obtained one, with particular qualities. The job was in sales, as a pre-sales analyst. This meant I was given almost all of the perks of sales reps, but without the responsibilities and risks of a quota. Doing that, I moved south, which stopped constant health issues with my son which kept him out of school a couple of months per winter. Plus, by having exposure to many clients of all kinds via the sales contact process, I gained superior industry knowledge within a short span of time when compared to just working at one company with it’s limited self-perspective. Not only did I hit a triple, but a home run, as I was paid on a California wage scale which included very, very valuable stock options.

When you have choices, list them all. Then, when you have choices listed, ask God to help you see what MANY things can be accomplished with just one action. Weigh each action on it’s own merits, and then compare the results.

God sees things on wildly higher levels than we possibly can. God’s ability to see the end from the beginning is something God wants to share with all who are God’s, which is called Wisdom.

Look for, and perceive, the myriad of possibilities. Think them all through, as you play life’s games on the chessboard of the Earth.
