Create Your Unique Mental Workshop

Abstract

"You have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.” (quote from Steve Jobs) The Fusioneers collected knowledge, skills, people, & more, according to their own unique design -- the Fusioneers’ talents, interests, & curiosity. Some failed school, some didn’t finish. All learned beyond school & in multiple disciplines. Some learned by teaching, some collected degrees. They never stopped. Many kept a “little black book” of ideas, problems, solutions, etc. They collected experiences & people – often a broad, eclectic array – helping them implement new ideas and CREATE them. Their collections formed a unique mental workshop integral to what they did later, although they DIDN'T KNOW it at the time. As technology takes over our standardized work, our job will be to create the novel, for which we’ll need unique & diverse minds, assembled by “collecting the dots.”
