The Connection between All the Variables – Assessing myself
Incredibly everything is interconnected with everything, the Human Being (his behavior and conduct as Being, as Man, as Consumer, when he makes decisions), the Society, the Governments (and their Policies), the Public, Private and Non-Governmental Organizations, the countries, everything is interconnected with everything, nothing remains the same when changing something or some variable in some sector of society.
It would be worthwhile to ask and analyze the positive, negative and interesting aspects, and much more, with the current events that the country is experiencing; to evaluate oneself as a person, as a professional, on a personal level, as a family, in my spiritual life, in my work environment, in my work, in my organization, one within society, and so each one to draw their own balance, evaluate themselves same and in the areas and fields where one interacts.
To do so, it would be necessary to try to dispel a question about oneself as if it were a variable and ask oneself: What has been my contribution at present to improve myself and improve my country from every point of view? , and Disaggregate this question from several perspectives in several subvariables or subsectors: professionally, personally, family, spiritually, in my work environment, my work, in my organization, in my country, one within society ; and from there to see and analyze and evaluate the Positive, Negative and Interesting aspects, in order to finally obtain an Idea or Ideas, possible solutions, Answers, Results for Decision Making with respect to what has been proposed, and to see what I am going to change, what I must improve and what is necessary and currently do and change.
Let’s better explain how to use this creative evaluation (this is a Tool exposed in my book Creativity Tools – Processes, Methodologies and Tools to Create and Undertake, which I have called the Integral Rose)
This is a graphic visual tool called the Integral Rose – The Connection of All Variables, where one is disintegrating a variable and is studying, analyzing, directed the thought, to combine and associate variables of the same or different domain, of provocation and use of the random, of connection, to study a situation, variables, problem, to generate ideas, answers, possible solutions, changes, improvements or conclusions to the raised.
First I must Analyze a topic or a question that we will call the Root of the Problem in our case would be: What has been my contribution at present to improve me and improve my country from any point of view ?.
-The Root: is the Variable to study, what we are going to ramify, then this would be: What has been my current contribution to improve myself and my country from every point of view?
We wrote the Variable to Study: What has been my contribution at present to improve myself and improve my country from every point of view ?.
-The Petals (The disintegration): there the possible subvariables are written, disintegrating the variable of the Root creating the Possible Subvariables to be studied.
The subvariables to be studied are written that come out of the Root Variable, in this case they would be:
Analyze everything regarding my performance, my contribution to improve myself, improve my country, for my children, in all fields where I interact, professionally, personally, family, in my spiritual life, in my work environment , in my work, in my organization, to society.
-The Stem: are the positive aspects, the Medullar, the core competencies, what nurtures, the path that nourishes, what I see positive of the subvariables studied.
There, the positive aspects are written, what is medullar, what nurtures, what is good, what I improved, what I did well, my contribution, my positive changes, referring to the Root variables and the Subvariables (Petals) that we are analyzing or studying, Write all those points or Positive aspects that can contribute or contribute in relation to the Root variable and subvariables raised and to solve the problem, or the positive aspects or what nurture that would help me generate a new Idea of improvement.
-The thorns: are the negative aspects, what it costs to do, what I have stopped doing for the good of all, the obstacles, what I see negative in the sub-variables broken.
There they write the negative aspects that are seen, what I have not been able to do, what I find difficult to do, the negative of the situation seen in several angles, with respect to the Root Variable and its Subvariables Petals.
The Obstacles are written, the negative that I think happened from the situation, what we have trouble doing, what is bad, that is, all the negative aspects, and what I must change and / or improve.
-The Nectar: refers to the interesting aspects, the useful, the interesting regarding the situation posed, referring to the Root Variable and its Subvariables Petals.
All the useful, interesting aspects are written there that can cause us usefulness, profit, surprise, surprise.
-Water: refers to Needs, Nutrients (Temporary), temporary needs, what is really needed or I need for a certain time, or temporarily to be able to solve problems or situations raised both in the Root Variable, and in its subvariables Petals. Recall that the Root Variable is: What has been my current contribution to improve me and my country from any point of view ?.
There, I write what I need or need temporarily to be able to solve what has been raised, achieve a new idea, or achieve good results.
-The Air: refers to the Permanent Needs, what is really needed permanently to be able to solve the problem posed, or the situations posed both in the Root Variable, as in its subvariables Petals.
It is written there what I need or need permanently to achieve the solution, or achieve a new idea or achieve better results.
-The Earth: refers to the Philosophical Needs, the philosophical, the moral bases, values, virtues, necessary principles to be able to solve the problem posed, or situations raised both in the Root Variable and its subvariables Petals.
The aspects and the philosophical, moral and virtuous needs are written, what we need to be good men and women, that are necessary to solve the situation originally proposed.
– The Sun: refers to the Lighting Needs, the creative, the necessary creative aspects to be able to solve the problem posed, or situations posed both in the Root Variables and its subvariable Petals.
Creative aspects are written there, what we create can be innovative and creative, which can help us enlighten to improve or change.
After studying and analyzing all these interconnected aspects, you can see the environments or environments, both internal and external.
-The Poppies: refers to the aspects of the internal environment or internal environment, as I see the internal environment, what surrounds me or closest environment relating to the Root Problem Raised and its Subvariables.
The points or aspects of the internal or closest environment are written there.
-Rainbow: refers to the aspects of the external environment or the more open environment, beyond my control, the outside world.
All the aspects of the external environment are written, which I think has an external impact on everything analyzed previously and on the problem initially proposed.
Then I must analyze the aspects both the internal and external environment of the Root variable and the subvariables Petals along with everything that I have been disintegrating in the Stem, Spines, Nectar, Water, Air, Earth and Sun.
Finally, I must draw a result, or several results, conclusions, ideas or ideas from this whole analysis.
-The Pollen: refers to the final result of the analysis and evaluation of all the variables discussed above, including their relationships, connections, incidence or interaction with internal and external aspects.
The ideas, the results or possible conclusions should be written once the whole study has been carried out, and the exhaustive analysis among all the variables.
These results or Ideas must be put into practice to Change, Improve, to Create, to Undertake, to Achieve Productiveness and to Do Good for the Root Problem Raised and its subvariables: to evaluate myself professionally, personally, family, spiritually , in my work environment, in my work, in my organization, one within society; These results or ideas may vary, are not exclusive and may not be the final or complete solution, but a large part of it.
This is a useful tool to think, learn to think, to be creative and innovative, to interconnect variables and ideas and achieve specific goals for the good of yourself, your family, your children and society, of course if you manages to prove, use and materialize effectively the possible solutions that we find in it.
Ideally, each person should do their own exercise, be honestly evaluated, write down, color, draw their own conclusions and ideas, and best of all, materialize and put into practice these ideas and improvements during the year.
