Security - Well Being

Building Our Communities - Respecting Shared Values

 

Let's very briefly talk about that 'Wheel of Development' proposition made on the 'MN Task Force GameBoard.'  Because the idea of it proposes a relational organization of ideas.  The author wants to cast a cautionary note here:  Yes, relationships can be interesting on the GameBoard; but the thinking, first, is that quickly, if that becomes the dominant focus, a relational database would be needed to help tabulate the many possibilities created by the GameBoard.

The initial use of the GameBoard was intended to help as many people as possible to organize ideas in a simple format while discovering ideas that influence us to make decisions and for example forays into different idea combinations.  The hope for, is that the idea combinations on the GameBoard could contribute to creating a better understanding of refreshed and new Value Statements and their direct implication in Winnable 50%+++ contributions to our efforts.

In this discussion let's orientate on assembling simple ideas that fit onto the GameBoard.  Just basic ideas that use a trial-and-error approach to order each attempt and thus see a comparison of ideas. Eventually, the hope is to find unique ideas that can be compared such that a strong topic #1 interest can be developed further.  This would be the most direct simple way of organizing the ideas used on the board to develop 50%+++ Value Statements.

Yes, all of this was a bit of social studies problem here,  but necessary to get at the aspect in your chosen #1 leading topic of four:  Security-Well Being, Family-Community, Education-Training, and Business-Jobs which make up an example by depicting a Wheel of Development and its 50% +++ Value Statements on the GameBoard as a working tool. 

So from your perspective, you take an idea that fits as close as possible to one of the four areas and just freely start constructing idea comparisons and/or relationships if preferred.  There is no wrong order or correct.  Just organization of ideas in the four areas.  It's your perspective and spontaneous response to the question you are considering.  Tomorrow, the same idea may bring about a more in-depth perspective.  The selection process is up to you.  You could even take a negative statement and see how adversely it affects the process of creating 50% +++ Value Statements.  That approach, of course, would make an interesting discussion.

It's all meant to be fun.  In fact, many combinations may provide some humor in their construction.

Our 'success in life experiences' require a safe, secure environment to raise our families, grow our communities, and create thriving business activities.  We are speaking to the obvious here, but when you dig deeper, the realization exists that there is a comparison between these parts that influence each to a degree over the other for their shared common good. 

For those interested in the tiring use of statistics, furthering these ideas from the originating basic portrayal, each makes a relational influence on the other that gives additional insight. Eventually, the relationships of ideas can influence decision-making, reveal potential change, and make clarity in the process of discovery.  How far you want to detail this process is entirely up to you.  But as the author has suggested, why should we have to do that to ourselves unless we are statisticians who love tinkering with a computer and relational databases?

The real question is how do we balance these interests, and find 50% +++ Value Statements that have additional benefit with each other?  Or is there an order that ultimately leads to one area of four on the board that directs more influence in the decision-making?
