Personal Universe

If you could somehow learn about every human experience that has ever been recorded (in books, pictures, audio and video recordings, blog entries, etc.) you would know everything that humanity has ever known (and shared) about Universe.

Unfortunately, none of us are capable of knowing everything that humanity has learned about Universe. The body of knowledge is much too big. But you do have your own mini version of it that I call your “personal universe”.

Your personal universe consists of everything you know from your own experiences combined with everything you have learned about humanity’s Universe. It is arguably, the most important asset that you have.

You use your personal universe to understand and navigate the World. It contains the skills and knowledge you use to do your job. And it’s the reference from which you think about how the World could be better.

You want it to be as flexible, accurate, interconnected and expansive as possible. More on that later.
