When good things become ruts
Photo: Meyers/Wikicommons There’s an old blog post that’s been going around this week, from the writer and web developer Michael Barrish. In it, he proposed that good things move in a cycle: Good Thing, Rut, Transition, and around again. A good thing becomes a rut, which then goes through a transition to eventually become a new and different good thing. The visual it gives me is of an endless looping spiral, moving off in one direction or another.
The idea of a three-point progression through life phases, though, seems sort of consistent. The Good Thing–Rut–Transition theory reminds me of the “ratchet, hatchet, pivot” model of technological and cultural development, presented by Columbia ecology professor Ruth DeFries in her 2014 book The Big Ratchet: How Humanity Thrives in the Face of Natural Crisis.
