Defining Power

“Tenir toutes tes ressources à portée de main. Voilà ton pouvoir.” (To hold all your resources within reach. That is your power.)

We often confuse power with Volume (how much you have). But true power is Velocity (how fast you can access it).

A library of 10,000 books is useless if you cannot find the one page you need. A digital-brain is only powerful if the Cybernetic Loop allows you to retrieve the data instantly.

Power = Resources / Access Time.

The Application

  • The Oracle: Reduces access time to zero.
  • Peter: Keeps business data (QuickBooks) at hand.
