Ongoing Recalibration

What you have learned is that the capacity of the plant is equal to the capacity of its bottlenecks.

• 'Jonah', Eliyahu M. Goldratt, The Goal: A Process of Ongoing Improvement

You have goals. Targets. KPIs. You can plan all you want, and you will still end up changing, updating, and adjusting. Because results told you to, or because new information showed up that nobody expected.

For better or for worse.

You started your preparation or already started running. Based on feedback you noticed or received from others, you learned things you didn't know before, and what not to do. So you recalibrate.

As if you were out of focus.

You're not the same person you were when you started. You've experimented. You've gotten better. You've risen to new standards. And now you're curious about new outcomes, new directions, new things you haven't tried yet.

So you keep recalibrating: continuously, day in and day out, in an ongoing pursuit of something better. Adjusting to find a better way. Adjusting to ignite something. Adjusting because the seeds you've been planting keep growing in new directions, and it's simply expected.

Recalibrate, recalibrate, recalibrate.
