Yoda, Definitions and Catching Up
Last night I liked the idea of the difference between multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary. They are not the same. Often times people use trans-disciplinary, multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary as the same thing. This makes me peevish. Having people in multiple disciplines is different from people working together across disciplines, which is slightly different from working between disciplines. I think design thinkers flourish when they understand the difference and how to work within each group.
Today I picked the quote from Ray Bradbury, "You can't try to do things. You simply must do things." It is a little yoda-ish. Still, my productivity soars when I just do things. I can do miraculous things when I just throw myself into them. Piffle is what comes from trying. Or thinking about trying.
Just doing things makes me feel impulsive and ridiculous, but I think I must embrace that. The freedom it comes with requires that I move past fear and procrastination and my entire life should be lived that way.
