Your question What is the smallest honest step?

The spread

  1. The rim Mountain A large obstacle with a known route. Slow, survivable, worthwhile. What to avoid: Treating a hill as a mountain.
  2. The middle Mountain A large obstacle with a known route. Slow, survivable, worthwhile. What to avoid: Treating a hill as a mountain.
  3. The bottom Crown Recognition, authority, and the attention that comes with both. What to avoid: A title held without the work.

The grounds are read the old way, from rim to bottom, which means the reading gets more honest as it goes.

At the centre, Mountain: a shape of two halves, which means a decision with a person, not about a person.

The last shape is a small cross, which is the grounds' gentlest caution: not a disaster, a delay.

What to do

Put the decision on paper with two columns.

Timing

Wait for the second thought, then move quickly.

Take with you

Progress is mostly unphotogenic.
