JIT VANG NO. 2
JIT VANG means taking direct action with a perspective to all potential actions. It is about taking correct action at just the right time. Action appropriate to time.
JIT VANG is mental Kung Fu.
JIT VANG is based on a recognition of the following principles that govern all behavioral actions:
1. All action involves an actor, me.
2. All action occurs in a situation wherein I have a position.
3. All situations, with the possible exceptions of sleep, mindless ecstasy, and death, are complex from the perspective of the actor.
4. Complexity is a factor of multiple possible positions and situations within an action horizon.
5. All situations exist in a landscape which has an ascertainable horizon line within which can be seen all aspects and variables of any situation and within which can be envisioned multiple potential successive situations.
6. There is potential action at my position, there is potential action between my position and the action landscape horizon, there is potential action over the horizon even though I cannot see or know what it is.
7. Staying still at a position alternates with going from a position.
8. Whenever you go from a position you go to another position, by means of an attempt. This attempt is called the action.
9. Any position and situation is likely to involve other actors who are collaborative, competitive, or confrontational.
10. Action is a linear performance by an actor in a direction through a complex action landscape embedded with potential choices and potential conflicts.
11. How I see and understand my position relative to all potential positions is relevant to how I decide what to do next and to the outcome of the performance of my choice.
12. Linear actions can be deflected by confrontation, by choice, or by digression.
JIT VANG is a process for achieving pure, true, successive, and persistent sequences of linear actions that are just right for the moment and carried out just so, with all the details nailed. This can be a very fulfilling process which through a series of actions and rests takes on a life-fulfilling flow along a path that defines its own merit.
