Like any foundation, antifragility requires continued care to remain resilient to new hazards, which constantly emerge to erode it.
Developing antifragility means focusing on the amplitude and nature of potential consequences, not the probability.
The more you practice thinking on your feet and the more you prepare for future scenarios, the better you get at improvising when they arise.
If we are to remain relevant, we need to build antifragile foundations to prepare for disruption and benefit from any disorder.
The issue with uncompromising reliance on flawed assumptions is not being wrong, but being unprepared for alternative outcomes.
Disruption is generally neither new nor bad; it is simply accelerating. The world’s fundamental paradigms are increasingly changing.
Disruption itself is generally neither good nor bad; its impact depends on one’s perspective and the nature and timing of one’s response.
Foresight is the capacity to investigate the drivers of change and explore possible futures systemically to inform short-term decision-making.
