Ask yourself, when you see an individual or collective entity fail to overcome a challenge, what your reaction is. I suspect a good many folks ask questions like, “what went wrong?” or “what obstacles got in the way?” I suggest that this is not a fruitful way to proceed. A far richer method of inquiry is to ask what ideas prevented individuals or groups from being able to address (perhaps solve) the problem. This sounds like a subtle difference, but it is in fact Grand Canyonesque in reality. We’ll explore this difference, I hope, soon.
