Today was once the future. Decisions were made. Problems were solved. Others were left unsolved. Responsibility was taken. And often it was not. All of it helped create the reality we live in now. The future eventually becomes today.

TODAY
Where responsibility starts
and the future is made.

When we hand over responsibility, we hand it into a future we cannot know. The next person will face a different reality. Different possibilities and problems. They need the freedom to make decisions for the reality they face. Give them responsibility for the future, not answers from the past.

Reality changes. So does what good requires. Technology creates new possibilities. New problems appear. Old solutions may stop being enough. Taking responsibility means changing what worked when reality requires it. Keeping something good can require changing it.

This is so wonderfully appropriate considering what I have just done with my Facebook and Instagram accounts. Being responsible for our own social media presence is a demonstration of strength. Choosing which platform we align with is ownership of the value of our own opinions.

One example: A person can be the face of a problem without being its cause.

I think the best common enemy is a real problem. No person to defeat. Just a problem to get rid of together.

Taking responsibility is itself a moment of value creation. It makes a better outcome more likely.

Taking responsibility should not make everything depend on you. If something good only works while you are there, it remains fragile. Share what you know. Help others become able to take responsibility too. One of the best things we can build is something good that can continue without us.

Taking responsibility can also mean giving responsibility to someone else. But you are responsible for how you hand it over. Prepare them. Support them. Give them room. Take one step back as they take one step forward. Giving responsibility is itself a responsibility.

Solving a problem can end the problem. It does not mean the responsibility is over. What we create needs to be maintained, improved and cared about. And changed when reality changes. The problem may be gone. The responsibility remains.

We talk a lot about creating the future. But much of what makes life better already works. Things that work need attention and some love. Sometimes they need protecting. Sometimes they are worth fighting to keep. Making a better future also means taking responsibility for what is already good.

Not everything valuable we leave behind will be visible. Some of it will be what others never have to face. They may never see the problem, or the work that made it disappear. They simply begin from a better reality. A good legacy can be invisible.

Every solved problem leaves something behind. A reality that is better than before. Others can begin there. They do not have to solve the same problem before working on what comes next. A good ending can become someone else’s good beginning.

Real debate needs real people who can disagree without intimidation. Bot attacks, threats and smear campaigns are attempts to silence them. That is a Big Real Problem. I’ll join this W Live conversation on 1 October.

We often imagine the future by asking what will exist. New technology. New possibilities. New beginnings. But a better future is also shaped by what no longer exists. Problems solved. The future is also made of problems that are gone.

We talk a lot about good beginnings. Problems can have very good endings too. A problem ends when it is solved. Something that needed to change has changed. Reality is better than before. Solving a problem is a very good ending.

We will sometimes choose badly. Individually and together. A better future does not require us to always be right. It requires us to listen to reality, learn and change direction when we are wrong. The freedom to choose matters. So does the freedom to choose again.

Most problems are not the real problem. They are consequences of a real problem. You can solve a consequence and it will likely return. Find the real problem. Take responsibility for solving it.

We do not know exactly what the future needs. That is another reason not to make everything the same. Different people can try different things. Reality gives each of us feedback. We can learn from what works and share what we learn. Different beginnings can help us find better ways forward.
