Things you should know about me:

THE WORTHY SOCIETY IS MY PLAN. I HAVE ONLY ONE PLAN on PlanBig; the rest are steps on the way. I am ordinary, extraordinary and unique, just like you. The more I learn, the more I realise I know so little. I am in a constant state of awe of life. I make every reasonable effort to resolve issues which endanger the quality of life. I practise SIMPLE IF POSSIBLE, COMPLEX IF NECESSARY and have found it works with a lot of hard satisfying work. I had experiences which were near to perfect as well as down times. I have had the privilege of some leadership positions and know that cooperation works wonders.

What I'm interested in:

Maintaining my physical, mental and spiritual health so that I can work on interests. I have an infinite number of interests and , of course, must prioritise. For instance, I HAVE ONLY ONE BIG PLAN ON PLANBIG and that is CREATING A WORTHY SOCIETY. All the other listed plans are attempts to break CREATING A WORTHY SOCIETY into manageable short or medium term plans. The important challenge is, while keeping the whole PLAN in mind, to focus on one or two sub plans for focussed attention.

Things I am good at:

Persisting. Keeping the "big picture" in my mind while very busy putting into practice tiny elements which eventually come together to resolve important issues. I can relate anything to anything and that becomes a problem in focussing on the immediate tasks. I generally cope well with the quite hectic pace of complicated "wickedly difficult tasks" and, given some support and encouragement overcome the anxiety that is part of the ongoing evaluation process. Being hopeful/optimistic.
