The Path of Least Resistance, for Managers
by Robert Fritz, forward by Peter Senge (1999)
So sounds like this is Fritz's 4th book, being a rewrite of his 3rd book, both speaking to the corporate world.
His ideas come across and it is good. But in my own experience, corporations, even most startups, are so screwed up that they could never even begin to hear any of this.
What I had meant to get was Fritz's first book:
www.amazon.com/Path-Least-Resistance-Learning-Creative/dp/0449903370/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1532636156&sr=8-1&keywords=the+path+of+least+resistance+robert+fritz
Having read some of it when it first came out. And then maybe his second book, "Creating" 1991.
His ideas make more sense at a purely personal level. That vast majority of organizations are so screwed up that they could never benefit from such.
So now about Fritz's ideas, what am I looking for and why am I going back to this at this time? It is because I know more about the occult, about Aleister Crowley in particular. Fritz's ideas sound so similar.
Now he has used the name "DMA" for his work, and he says it has something to do with Kabbalah.
Otherwise what do we have?
So he talks about structural conflict leading to oscillations, where as structural tension leads to progress via the path of least resistance, and he seems to be talking about vision, and finding our what you really want. To me, this is so much like Crowley and the 19th century Golden Dawn.
So this is totally against motivationalism, like, I want to eat, but I want to lose weight. Rather, you develop a more comprehensive vision, and you come to see the structural things which work against it and need to be changed.
So again, is Fritz schooled in the occult, or something else like it? Still not sure.
book recommended to me:
