That applies to a storm, a volcanic eruption, a lightning strike.   It also applies to smaller scale life systems, such as for personal relationships or conversations, human or other plant or animal lives,  civilizations, ecologies, and of course businesses and economies.   The living systems for which growth is a holistic building process, preparing them for long lives after growth, all start by organizing and expanding faster and faster at first, and then shift gears to develop slower and slower, refining and coordinating their designs to climax when ready to begin their long lives ahead.  It&#8217;s a switch from scaling up the starting patterns to then take a sustaining role their environment.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>&#8230; If that understanding, of how to succeed in life after growth<\/em><\/strong>, were to spread around the world, it could dramatically change our now doubtful future.   Today our chances are  compromised  by our global inability to stop our ever growing our consumption, disruption, and confusion of life on earth, not knowing how to smoothly switch from the red to the blue curve, to get ready for a long life.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/synapse9.com\/signals\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/GroToClimaxNWh-1024x531.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4041\" width=\"437\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/synapse9.com\/signals\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/GroToClimaxNWh-150x78.jpg 150w, https:\/\/synapse9.com\/signals\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/GroToClimaxNWh-768x398.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 437px) 100vw, 437px\" \/><figcaption>The natural arc of successful life stories, 1) building, 2) refining, 3) life.<br>the universal pattern of: Innovation &#8211; Refinement &#8211; Enjoyment<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Guiding Patterns of Naturally Occurring Design A new window on Pattern LanguagesA new window on the working design patterns of nature. 1st Release Oct 1 from Amazon and MoreBooks Blurb: The leading sciences offer a pattern language for nature in the form of interrelated mathematical equations.
