Fermi & irked

The most significant challenge in my life stemmed from an incident that deeply irked me years ago.


A toxic individual in my orbit once smirked, insinuating, “Perhaps you can’t manifest this project like you used to.”


Upon reflection, I realised that multiple goals operate simultaneously within us, and my subconscious—or more precisely, my maternal circuitry—takes command the moment I lower my defences. This revelation made me understand it’s not about losing any inherent magic in manifesting CYcrds or any other venture.


Instead, as Fermi elucidated with his order of magnitude concept (powers of ten), my primal instincts temporarily sideline everything else, including my entrepreneurial pursuits.
These instincts intuitively know that CYcrds and other aspects of life will remain intact once the perceived threat has passed.


Consequently, my greatest challenge lies in empowering my instinctual responses to reassert control, allowing the maternal circuitry to rest.
It’s about finding harmony between my innate protective mechanisms and my conscious desires to innovate and grow CYcrds, recognising that both play crucial roles in navigating life’s complexities and entrepreneurial journeys.


Or, in other words, let the mother rest and release the dragon!

May harmony find you in 2025
