Climbing up to 32th Floor

These days, I usually climb up to my office at 32F after lunch when I have available time(Now it takes 9-10 minutes, btw). It's my humble effort as an exercise for my health during weekdays. One day, I got a SMS somewhere around 20th floor and tried to look at the screen. All of a sudden I felt dizzy and almost fell down. So I looked upward as high as possible. Then it became normal after some seconds.

The dizzy feeling I experienced is just like what we feel about current economic downturn, crisis, or crash. We try to figure out how the market go tomorrow, how the real estate price move in three months, and whether the economy will rebound or not by the end of the year. We think about those things all the time, but we feel dizzy every time and fail to conclude in the end.

This is the nature of short-term future. It's almost impossible to tell about clearly and correctly. Long-term future is also difficult to forecast correctly, but at least we can talk about it more clearly with personal, organizational vision. And that's why we need to move our attention far into the future and into the peripherials, not looking only at our current boundaries. Then we need to grasp the clues that will shape our longer-term future and we should translate them into current context in order to make better decisions. This could be the only way that we can deal with today's dilemmatic world and of tomorrow.
