Are you prepared to utilise the opportunities that will compress decades into few years?

At the Yahoo Hack Award, the demo was running. The server crashed. In front of the Yahoo VP and a room full of judges. Antano looked at them and said: the system crashed, wait, I'm fixing it. Something had taken over. He was not prepared for this specific moment. He was in a state where the crash was information, not disaster. He finished the demo. They won.

The opportunities that compress decades into years do not come when you are ready. They come when they come. What determines whether you can use them is not how much you know but the state of your inner readiness. Preparation at that level is not about acquiring more information. It is about installing the capability that allows you to act under conditions you have not faced before.
