What I learned:

4 no's of why things fail, which are solved by systems
no awareness
no understanding
no oversight / validation
no simplicity

correspond to 4 elements
exploration
analysis / logic
testing / quality control
memory / goal setting


--------------------
could it be that as memory is hindsight,
logic is foresignt?

what I learned
systems allow you to compartmentalize information and organize it so you don't get confused and overloaded with information.

It also allows you to see similar things in the same light, letting you not have to think about similar things again and again

systems also make consistency a breeze. Systems have a very predictable nature - the same benefits (or lack thereof) again and again, and the same costs as well - allowing you to predict costs

Systems I think are on 4th dimension or 4D level of thinking

Thinking on 5D allows you to CREATE and design systems intelligently. 5D lets you think in terms of (life) cycles or processes.

Systems are there to replicate conditions.

Conditions are on 3D level of thinking

-------------------------------------------------------------------
The difference between systems and processes (4D thinking vs 5D thinking)

Systems are defined by its components
Systems are about "things that are in a certain place at a certain time, and the interactions between these things as time goes on".

Processes deal with the effects of a system and its components, and the interactions between those effects across time.

Therefore processes are more intelligent because they deal with more information, as each component can have multiple effects.

Processes are more responsive to the environment, they keep balance in the environment and are essential for sustainability.


Systems are a lot closer to the world of form than processes. Systems are about things and processes are about energy. They're like chemistry and physics.


Each system is made up of conditions, conditions that are either for or against  the system. The system aligns conditions to become for it, and therefore enforces itself.

Processes are made up of many systems. Each system has its own conditions, and sometimes those conditions conflict with each other. Processes deal with the interactions of these systems. It notices when systems conflict, and when systems cooperate or when one system fails due to its interactions with other systems.
