Within all there is energy for good and a creative genius that can contribute to generating greater viip for self and others. Changing our thinking will enable us to see this and to generate greater joy throughout the world. Connect with the source. Work the inner nature. Apply the creative genius within to produce greater good. Grasp the essence and find your purpose. Through discovery, sharing and maturing all shall gain.
As upstarts and giants of all types more so come together, and as they are joined by the general pubic to pursue with earnest matters of high purpose (and urgency and importance to the world at large), quality will achieve unimagined levels well beyond what is being achieved in the first part of the 21st Century. Perfect vision leap year 2020 and beyond is poised for serious goodness if all help bring IT together to make things progressively better such as per words within this article (look for these words… evolution; centers on the evolving nature of computing; need to work with both partners and competitors in order to bring this all together; users are largely telling us what they want and it’s changing how we do business; need to evolve to keep pace; it’s important for the industry as a whole to invest in this; it’s not important that Microsoft build an identity system and get everyone to use it; and it’s not important that anyone else do that either; what is important is that they all work together; maybe that’s something that you haven’t heard from us in the past, but you’ll hear more of it in the future).
Live the wisdom of God, TAO or what you consider to be your divine source. Find the common ground, the goodness that helps ensure a common foundation and connects us all. Within each of us there is an anchor to the universe. Look for, find and make small getting started changes. As we each do this we build towards accomplishing great things. A journey of 1000 miles does begin with one step. Return to your source and connect with well-being a moment at a time. Transform.
As we let go of our ego (what we have, what we do, what others think of us) we learn to shift from fear to being curious of what we are afraid of. Shift from control to trust. Shift from a sense of entitlement to radical humility. Be wise, help all impartially, and abandon none. Live with flexibility. Transfer rigid to agile. We are water and can enter anywhere or in anyone. Water is the supreme good. Be less rigid and accomplish more. We must be flexible. Like yoga which means union we must be one with our source and flexible including in our thinking as the latter is a compass in life and heavens way to conquer is being done. Change from seeing yourself as separate to being connected to everyone in the universe. We are all one. We come from the same source known by different names. We are a tree (a family, humanity); no tree has or should have branches as foolish as to fight themselves.
The path to achieving and increasing goodness is not what is most important however. There really is no path as it is ever changing and with each change goodness is enabled to higher levels. What is important is to bring goodness to the path. Ensure goodness is inherent and bring it to the journey. Elevate quality, value, excellence and simplicity from the inside out and outside in. Goodness within leads to intrinsic and pervasive greatness from a journey that begins with a single step. Thank you for each step, for your perseverance, for motivating others, and for instilling fun, love and value. Help ensure a continually better world by 2020 and beyond thanks to the innate characteristics associated with software, technology, information and all peoples. Discover and mature inherent qualities. From any and all perspectives (and to ensure ever increasing value and joy for self and all), share, creatively mature and innovatively embed a mindset to progressively and continually have real quality occur more inherently or be more inherent.
Simply stated, quality assurance equates to prevention, quality control to detection, quality improvement to enhancement, quality management to governance, quality inherent to viip. Value based information is facilitating paradigm shifts that will enable collective wisdom to generate a simple common set of elements that truly define Qual IT. Give and build positive energy and ensure compliance inherently. It is time for more unification to improve software, technology and information. Merge associations, frameworks, products and methods to increase simplicity and elevate the aims of each. As more awaken to the power of unification the world will innately grow better and stronger as increased unification is essential as the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
Quality must be built within the individuals involved. It must be inherent in their DNA and within the DNA of that which they use, interface with and produce. The world will continually be changed for the better as a result of individuals and teams embedding quality and making quality decisions that increasingly enable this. Progressively teams will include intelligence embedded within the technology both produced from quality decisions and used to make quality decisions. As you make quality decisions they will change you. Not just you and the job but others too as quality fans out like waves. Pirsig of course said this many years ago. The notion of inherent quality has of course existed for centuries (e.g.) and fun is of course becoming a better understood characteristic (e.g.). As more awaken to the inherent notion it will be further matured and produce unimagined good. We may even start to more so inherently ensure quality and value the first time. Part of the essence of the notion is a progressive change of culture and mindset that beings first within oneself.
Do the inherent characteristics of standards fulfill the requirement to ensure quality? Will they more so in the future? Will more unification and harmonization help? As more blog about examples of things which make quality innate or occur innately (and about what in the future will more so do this), standards and tools will continue to evolve and ensure greater levels of value. The results will be far reaching; particularly as IT progressively becomes more so a global community of practice and sharing.
A fun link to go along with this post is Answers.com. Among other within you will note quality defined in 1.a. as an “inherent or distinguishing characteristic”. As you continue scrolling along you will also note that the meaning for the term quality has developed over time and that now various interpretations exists. The first then listed is ISO 9000 - “Degree to which a set of inherent characteristics fulfills requirements”.
A few words of wisdom that are perhaps suitable at this juncture are provided below.
Improvements in quality always and automatically result in reductions in schedules and costs, increases in productivity, increases in market share, and consequently increases in profits. — Dr. W. Edwards Deming
If you want a high quality software system, you must ensure each of its parts is of high quality. —
Watts S. Humphrey
We are only starting to connect the dots — Rosella Abella
You can’t depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus — Mark Twain
Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine and at last you create what you will. — George Bernard Shaw
To have sustained joy, you have to not only make sure that you think right, but you also have to make decisions now that are going to guarantee some joy in the future — Joyce Meyer
Accountability breeds response-ability — Stephen R. Covey
The one thing that changes everything is trust — Stephen M. R. Covey
The time is always right to do what is right. — Martin Luther King, Jr.
Every journey begins with a single step… do the best you can and then keep the pressure on for a better system… we could have as little as 10 years in which to make significant changes… there is an old African proverb that says if you want to go quickly go alone, but if you want to go far go together, we need to go far quickly, which means we need to get a common base of agreement on the basic facts about this crisis as quickly as we can and then move forward together — Al Gore (Global Warming)
We must try to do something good, something useful with our lives. Try to be at peace with yourself and help others to share that peace. If you contribute to others’ happiness, you will find the true goal, the meaning of life — Dali Lama
The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them. We have to do the best we can. This is our sacred human responsibility. — Albert Einstein
The whole is more than the sum of its parts — Aristotle
