In the “Art of Possibility” Rosamund and Benjamin Zander share some powerful insights they have gleaned about what it’s like to live into the possible.
They tell stories how reframing old narratives of one’s life can lead to self discovery, transformation and a better life. In fact, it is reminiscent of the all the upside web3 narratives being used today.
However, the culture has come to see the word “possible” as exclusively “positive” and this is sadly not always the case.
Another way of framing what’s possible, is to see it as stepping into the unknown. The unknown can be a scary place. When sailors would embark on voyages to try discover new continents, they were drawn by the power of possibility; but not everyone made it to the other side.
With possibility comes risk.
If we are unaware of the risks involved we are not able to take full responsibility for them. If we cannot take full responsibility for our actions, we will sabotage ourselves from being transformed by the positives of possible.
As we traverse new plains of possibility in web3, let us not forget to assess what is at risk. Not only financially, but how we spend our time, who we spend our time with and how much energy we invest.
When we are sober, understand what is at risk, and engage with the art of possibility anyway - that is when true transformation can be experienced.

DAO Experience Design | by BrownryggWeb3 has a marshmallow problem | #5
Web3 has a marshmallow problem. In the 1970s Stanford conducted a well known experiment that tested the correlation of delayed gratification with long term success. In brief, a set of children were put in a room alone with a marshmallow. They were told that if they didn’t eat the marshmallow before the adult returned they would get two marshmallows. Majority of the kids stuffed themselves. However, the minority that waited for the adult to return were better able to deal with frustration and ...

Have you ever been curious, neigh - wondered, why the word ‘wonder’ is used so frequently in the web3 space? WonderFi Wonderland Protocol Wonderverse The Alice in Wonderland theme seems to be a strong metaphor for web3. But what does that mean? That we’re all just Alice on an uncontrollable rollercoaster ride of bunnies, mushrooms and morally ambiguous characters? I hope not. I mean, if we truly want to share the magic of web3 with the rest of the world - replying to the emotions that come wi...
DAO Experience Design | by BrownryggRight Actions = Appropriate Context | #51
This anecdote is often overlooked, yet vital in web3 communities. The acts of observing, contributing and participating are fundamentally separate acts with different desired outcomes. If we don’t create the appropriate context for these acts to be performed, the fundamental structure we build the community and culture on will be unaligned. Unaligned foundations never stood the test of time. This unalignment happens because if we do not present a desired action to a human within a context tha...
