Isn’t it fascinating that it’s nearly impossible to discuss “thinking,” which happens in time, without resorting to metaphors of space? No wonder Strategy finds its magic when it connects to the real world and leads to concrete results.

I was reminded of that when Andy Whitlock reposted this cartoon. (Comics masterfully navigate time and space in ways unlike any other medium — a topic for another space and another time.)

If I may, I’d like to build on Andy’s lucid points — with some thoughts on the strategic journey they portray.
