Don’t waste your time on them; it won’t get you anywhere. You should ignore them; that’s how the system is these days because “they” are the system. They will only delay you unless you don’t need it urgently. Did you take them at their word? You must be seriously joking. You’re funny. It’s just a formality. Do these comments sound familiar?
Well, I also experienced a bit of a “people” problem last year that was quite frustrating. Later that day, I thought about this.
The development of our societies and the nation as a whole hinges on the quality of its systems, processes, and procedures.
Systems, processes, and procedures are all arguably awry, non-functional, or cannot be built without the human factor; people. However, most often than not, we, the people, are the problem. Have you had to deal with yourself?
We’re not easy to work with or live with. We’re complex embodiments of good, bad, introversion, extraversion, altruism, selfishness, etc.
Strongly built systems, on the other hand, may have the potential to regulate the “people problem” to some extent. That’s the paradox.
If you agree with my premise, then I perceive the question now to be:
“How do we use people [who, of course, are the problem in the first place] to build stronger regulatory and functioning systems that will circumvent their behavioural complexities while primarily helping build our nation?”
What do you think?
