PROTOTYPE

PROTOTYPE

Let's make things as SIMPLE as possible but no SIMPLER.

But reality is extremely complex. How can we make things SIMPLER? "Show. Don't Tell" -- A PROTOTYPE can convey a lot more than an essay or a speech.

If you want to DEVELOP something, make a PROTOTYPE so you explain it to others. If you want to BUILD UP the excitement, make a PROTOTYPE so you can show it to others. If you want to MAINTAIN the development and buildup, make a PROTOTYPE so others can experience it.

Your PROTOTYPE is a PROJECTION of the future that you just cannot share as easily without making it tangible.

A year ago today I wrote: Change is made by EXAMPLE, not by opinion ... A PROTOTYPE is an EXAMPLE of what can be. A PROTOTYPE is an example of what you CAN DO.

I currently have a PROTOTYPE for how to view the most relevant evidence for comparing options when there are many options for how to treat a condition. Email me (balper at ebsco.com) if you would like to see it.

Really like what you said and the way you said, i.e. the PROTOTYPE of what you intended to say!
