There are perhaps only three things we can and need to know with certainty: where we are, where we want to be, and by what means we should maneuver the unclear territory between here and there. And the rest is supposed to be somewhat unclear, because we cannot see into the future! The way from where we are to where we want to be next is a gray zone full of unforeseeable obstacles, problems, and issues that we can only discover along the way. The best we can do is to know the approach, the means, we can utilize for dealing with the unclear path to a new desired condition, not what the content and steps of our actions--the solutions--will be.

Kata are simple, structured routines that you practice deliberately, especially at the beginning, so their pattern becomes a habit and leaves you with new abilities. The word comes from the martial arts, where Kata are used to train combatants
24 25 26 27
in basic building-block moves. But the idea of practicing Kata can be applied in a much
28
broader sense. This practice guide is about practicing a scientific way of working, and,
29
ultimately, thinking, in order to achieve superior results.
30
No one knows what the world will look like in the future, so one of the most
31
valuable skills you can have is the ability to adapt. Scientific thinking is exactly that.
32
It involves a running comparison between what you predict will happen next, seeing
33
what actually happens, and adjusting based on what you learn from the difference.
34
Scientific thinking may be the best way we have of navigating through unpredictable
35
territory to achieve challenging goals. Practiced deliberately for even just 20 minutes a
36
day, scientific thinking can make anyone more adaptive, creative, and successful in the
37
face of uncertainty.
