2. Living in the Adjacent Possible
Manage episode 407081302 series 3557555
What is the theory of The Adjacent Possible?
Chelsea dives into this incredibly powerful tool where good ideas come from and helps you to see the steps to take to allow your eyes to be open to your blindspots.
The first time Chelsea heard about The Adjacent Possible Theory was on The Alison Show. This spurred Chelsea on to see this theory not only is valuable for the engineer but to everyday living.
Tinkering allows you to explore your dreams and goals. The goal may start with one focus, but when you move a little to the left, or to the right, the end result can morph entirely.
There are resources available around us that perhaps we cannot see until we allow ourselves to veer off to the left or right. Some other ways we can become aware of the adjacent possible:
- Allowing a coach or mentor to bring to light a different perspective
- Prayer
- Exploring ideas outside of your normal thinking
For more coaching with Chelsea Swain, listen to the show and be sure to take notes.
Looking for an adjacent possible solution? Message Chelsea and share an area where you feel you are stuck.
If you are in the Burn Bright Society, come and share inside the community to see the adjacent possible in action.
