Finding Clarity in Complexity

Understanding where you currently stand is essential when navigating complex systems like life and business. To resolve challenges, it's crucial to identify your present position before deciding on your next actions. This concept emphasizes that instead of seeking large, transformative goals, one should focus on achieving local optimums through small, manageable steps.
